+1 so much better than follow up Aquanox

GOG, this game is one of those games that GOG was created for. It is the incarnation of the concept of a Good Old Game!! this really really has to be re released. Whay it really needs though is to be remastered (a remake is not needed IMO).

Wow, THIS was the game I was trying to think of!! A little while ago, when it was announced that the Aquanox(es?) were being pulled off of gog, I was thinking to myself, what was that OTHER sub game from the 90s besides Subwar 2050? I rediscovered 'Sub Culture''s existence, but I wasn't convinced. That's b/c it was not Sub Culture I was reminiscing about...
It was this one!

Big h/t to awalterj!

+1 !! (or +1000000)

duedmen

Outstanding game with an unbelievable setting. Immersion, fantastic music, excellent sound design and voice acting, graphics that even TODAY still have a unique enough feel to them that you don't have to put on your retro glasses to play the game. Please please add this GoG.
Aquanox was good but nowhere near as good as AD.

One of my favorites from back in the day. I remember not being able to wait to come home from school to play this! I would but it instantly if GOG would release this! Whether it's technically abandonware or not. I would pay money for it!

exioce

Please to be letting me buy this on GOG

DonRumata1

This may not come to GOG if Nordic refuses to sell games here after the recent currency implementation. Which is terrible.

Dragxor

Damn plz we need it :D

Amazing game, most combat sims never came close to this. It´s a must have on GOG and worth the effort of updating it. This game really deserves to live again and is actually at the top of it´s league if compared to the Aquanox sequels.

Playing Archimedean Dynasty (original title: Schleichfahrt) is one my greatest gaming related childhood memories. I would love to see this game running on my modern system.

mav2000ger

Please add the German version "Schleichfahrt" too! It's a German game.

MikeJMurdock

I would like this to so I can get the full trilogy :)

Morbanth

One of the best space combat simulators I've ever played, and it's not even set in space! I loved the mechanics, the torpedoes that could blow you out of the water with a single hit, the actually difficult missions and the very interesting plot and characters. Unfortunately, when I upgraded my computer in '99, I forgot it was in the CD-drive of the old case and threw it out. Never found it anywhere afterwards. :(

JulienJaden

Why, why, WHY is this not on GOG? It is an absolute whore to get to work properly (with cutscenes, audio, DOSbox and all) and it deserves some GOG love.

Retrostage

Wonderful classic, should be on GOG, high priority!

evilglenn3000

I would definitely pay to play this game again, this game is an outstanding testament to how good old games really are. Dead Eye Flynt for the win =)

rtcvb32

Seeing as we have AuqaNox and it's sequel, I feel like I'm playing them out of order if I don't do this game first. So I'll have to cast my vote for this to arrive too.

Hedganian

Way better than the Aquanox sequels, please add this game in full, with videos, 3d graphics and the works. PLEASE!

monclefu

Best game I ever played!!!

vdrandom

do want ._.

awalterj

If GOG needs just one sub sim in the catalog, it has to be this one.

iarwain78

It would be great to have this again!!

temu1982

me want this, I remember having such a blast with that game, miss it so much, bough aquanox 1 and 2 but me want this... this me Wants.... MY PRECIOUSSSSSS ;);) I'll buy if you get it on gog :)

kel_tor

a must have :-)

Jad.3

Me wants.

Nicoleef

Bigthor

TheTimetraveler

it would be great to have it with gamepad support!!!!!!! :-)

Martinez90

Copyrights of Archimedean Dynasty also belong to Nordic Games

FuchsFantastisch

Please add Schleichtfahrt also as German version. The great times of Blue Byte... :)

vulchor

I was really disappointed to find Aquanox and the sequel here but not the original Archimedean Dynasty. There is a version up on Abandonia, however it has been significantly stripped down to 37 MB. There's no movies or voice-overs. That just wont cut it.

Karboxyd

This has to happen !

toggsuk

Would love this game.

hayali_icraat

The oldest but arguably the best of the Aquanox series, an "Aquanox 0" if you will. Gives much more info about characters like Emerald Flint and El Topo and the Aquonox universe, unoriginal but still good plot, good game mechanics and detailed physics that even calculates underwater currents. Definitely belongs on GOG.

Review of the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnWPKa_etbE

The 3dfx/glide emulation still is still not perfect but it works (!!!) broadly, there is some very good info here: http://www.zeus-software.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=183I think this is the thread what Warrgarbl meant. It is highly recommended. Thanks to all those who brought us this far! Running this game on a modern system is difficult - it would be a challenge for gog even without glide emulation. I have it running now after buying an old boxed copy. Software mode runs flawlessly and fast at about 90fps in dosbox (see the link above for details) on a 2.4ghz dual-core. But most importantly: It is 100% stable. Widescreen does not work and as far as I can see it might never work properly except for the videos maybe. It is mandatory to read the manual. This is a beautifully complex game and many missions are not as difficult as they seem if you understand the systems (sensors/noise/torpedoes). It is a very long game too, so much content. They take their time to set the story up and when it runs it is apparent just how polished it is actually. I will stop here. It is a gem.

I won't buy the Aquanox games here until I can get the entire series. Would really appreciate this on GOG.

nitrom

Such a shame to have aquanox on GOG, but not the actual Good Old Game, which is Schleichfahrt (A title I like much better than the english one, btw). This games atmosphere was great, and the mission design was awesome. Cant get it to run on my machine atm, so I'd like to get a running version from GOG.

Dzsono

Hugely, hugely, hugely underrated. Deserves its own shrine on GOG.

Warrgarbl

I would absolutely love to see this on here. I have the german original disc complete with box and manuals, but having it on here so I can convince others to give it a go would be awesome. By the way, I recently found a thread on the net which told you how to get 3dfx support in dosbox - and schockingly, it works. Drop me a line if youre interested (gerne auch auf Deutsch).

julealgon

Please add this game! Practically impossible to find nowadays and hard to make work in modern systems. Getting this right would be a huge win!

F4LL0UT

The only game from the series I have ever played is Aquanox 2 and personally I loved it - apparently only because I didn't know this one as most people claim both Aquanox's to suck next to Archimedean Dynasty. I want this on GOG!

tabbi

oh the memories... this game was one of the most epic story 'shooters' at its time! please bring it to gog.com!

xpac

Get it! So much better than the Aquanoxs ;)

Poldithecow

Loved this game to death! Moving story, engaging gameplay ( never felt as close to commanding a superfuturemegasub again), privateer like shop system all in all a super immersive experience and maybe the best game I have ever played. Would love to see it on here. Maybe also german language version??

nedobrak

Awesome game, this, TIE Fighter and Freespace are the cream of the crop of this type of games. Both Aquanox parts were pretty poor compared to this masterpiece, the story, the game mechanics, the mission design... it sure would be a worthy addition to the GOG site, so come on, give it to us:)

Gormark

Would be really cool to play this game again.
