April 2025
Having played the Avernum games on and off for almost 20yrs I always find myself enthralled by the world development and progression from each game to the next. I may go a year or two between playthroughs but it always draws be back. fun little games to sit back and enjoy. Avernum 3: RW was, has been, and is a pleasure to play and just freely roam the world, excellent for those who love to role-play their game characters. Can't wait to see the remake of Avernum 4: Greed and Glory when it gt's released later this year. Josh

30 years and it still works. The formula is still fun.

I spent 66.7 hours playing on the easiest setting. I didn't complete many of the secondary quests and didn't explore many areas. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the main plot and had a great time. Both "Escape from the Pit", and "Chrystal Souls" are games I have played and enjoyed. I am eagerly awaiting the remake of Avernum 4 which I will also play. Well done!

The Avernum games are excellent, if you are a lover of turn-based RPGs with interesting lore. The 3rd in the series so far seems to be doing the series justice - and it's hilarious that unicorns are pests.
