Revelation Mages
Walthros
| Before you look at the simplistic graphics and
dismiss this as another newbie game, let me say that this game actually
has an interesting story, and has a good music selection (mostly classical,
like Beethoven's moonlight sonata, etc.). Anyway, here are the author's
words about this game:
"The game is intended to be a bizarre satire of various things, with
a large cast of characters, each of whom plays an active role in the story.
(I'm aware, though, that it starts out kind of slow.) Where the game came
from: For years, I'd been making short little comic books about Bob Surlaw,
the main character of Walthros. When I eventually I found OHRRPGCE, I tried
making a couple games with it based on his adventures. Not satisfied with
how they turned out, I ditched them, and started work on what would become
Walthros in October 2000. Release date: Some time 2001."

Dimensions IV
| What happened to Dimensions I, II, and III, anyway?
This game, by Masamune49 of Cube games, seems pretty interesting. The plot
is particularly well done, and involves parellel dimensions and time. We
haven't seen too many of that particular story-genre on the Ohrrpgce, and
so I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of this game. |

The Adventures
of Powerstick Man
| The Adventures of Powerstick Man like Walthros,
also began as a comic book creation of the author. The game has a really
offbeat story involving a tennis player becoming a superhero. It also has
a lot of popular culture references from the 80s and 90s... Look
for a demo of this game as early as next month. |
