Also known as Constructor: Street Wars outside of the US, Mob Rule expands upon the original Constructor, while retaining what made the game unique among the flood of other RTS/tycoon games released at the time.

Mob Rule is a mix between a real-time strategy and a city building tycoon game. The setting is the same as in Constructor - a humorous, cartoonish version of Prohibition-era USA - although it's a lot more mobster-themed than the original. City-building takes a back seat here and the main focus is placed on the more or less illicit activities necessary to maintain a criminal organization. Bribe the Police, city officials and other "businessmen" like yourself. Sabotage your competitors' holdings and protect your own from other "families", each no less greedy, ambitious and ruthless than yourself.

We're proud to announce our third Activision release. If you've ever played an RPG session set in the World of Darkness, the game's title and the prospect of playing as a vampire should be convincing enough.

Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption is a role-playing game closely based upon the acclaimed pen-and-paper RPG system Vampire: The Masquerade. It tells the story of a French crusader, Christof Romuald, whose perilous quest will see him traveling across the world in both the Dark Ages and modern times. You can choose between a path of good or evil and the choices you make throughout the game will determine which of the many endings will come to fruition. Last but not least it offers a multiplayer narrative mode, which essentially allows you to play an RPG session on-line, with one of the players being the GM.

To make up for the lack of Tuesday release, we're releasing today Dark Fall 2. DF: Lights Out is a fine title for anyone who enjoys first-person perspective point-and click games... With a touch of suspense.

Dark Fall 2: Lights Out, also known simply as Dark Fall II or just Lights Out, is a point-and click horror-adventure game. Much like the older titles from the Myst series, you control the game by clicking specific areas of the pre-rendered scenery. You take the role of Benjamin Parker, a cartographer hired to map the dangerous shores of a small English town. Surprisingly, there already is a lighthouse on a small island near the town, so why would anyone want to hire a cartographer? It soon becomes apparent that something strange is happening within the lighthouse, so you set out to investigate, before its keepers or anyone else gets hurt...

Because you enjoy reading about old games almost as much as playing them, we're posting a spotlight on Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura by David Craddock.

In most fantasy worlds, swords, horse-drawn carriages, dragons and sorcerers don't often advance to firearms, automobiles, flying machines and scientists, regardless of how many millennia have passed since the world's inception. Not so in Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, the debut title from defunct developer Troika Games, a studio founded by Tim Cain, Jason Anderson and Leonard Boyarsky, key members of the original Fallout development team. An explosion of technological advancement on the eponymous continent Arcanum has brought about better, more efficient ways of living and working -- but not everyone believes the newfangled innovations to be for the best. read more...
