Story:Will Rock must save his girlfriend from Zeus and his cronies in this fast-paced first-person shooter by Saber Interactive.
I played this game for the first time back when I was like 10 years old, we had a computer lab at school where they would let us mess around on the computers after class and someone installed this game on one of the devices there. I remember playing it and thinking this feels so much like serious sam (which I loved) but looks cooler and more accessible since I could play it for more than 2 minutes without getting blown up by a kamikaze or dying to a kleer attack and I just fell in love with it ever since. Finished it many times over the years but the versions that are out there are full of graphical bugs and issues that make it hard to play but hopefully that won't be an issue if and when it gets the GOG treatment which it so desperately needs and deserves.
One of my favourite games back in the day. I play a lot this game and Serious Sam but sadly this one doesnt run well at newest PCs. I hope some day this game get remastered
This is actually the first game I have ever played ,and it was around 2007 I think.There was some sort of celebration in neighbourhood,and when I went there with my parents,I saw other kids in the house playing this game.Later it took me a years to find the name of this game,because we were kids back then and our knowledge of English language and PC knowledge was very poor.
I loved Serious Sam and while this doesn't quite stack up, I still enjoyed playing it back in the day! Would love to see this goofy title come back to life!! 🙏🥺
Game has incredibly unique atmosphere that keeps constantly dragging you back into it. Mysterious mythological world with its all kinds of creatures that try to rush at you and kill you, that adrenaline and satisfaction you get from using every single weapon that has a juicy impact shooting waves of enemies under such a lovely composed hardcore music which rushes dopamine into your mind. This game was a solid part of my childhood and still continues to be a solid part of my life. Hope it gets featured on GOG, but we cannot rely on this only and we have to keep the community active and work towards the preservation together!
Me and another die hard fan are running a community together for Will Rock since 2018 to preserve the game and make it available for people by writing a detailed wiki on fandom about it and making sure the game runs smoothly on modern systems, plus to that as well supporting a multiplayer part of the game so people can re-experience the game and have fun together.
I know this is not the best place to put this but we need more people to join the community so we can preserve it together and keep the spirit high for it. But here is what we have got so far as a community for preservation:
1. Easy plug n' play approach with patches that run the game on Windows 8/10/11
2. Straightforward helpful guides on how to setup the game
3. Multiplayer support so you can jump into matches easily (In progress)
4. A growing fandom wiki which is actively being developed
5. Exploring possible approaches on how to do modding (we do need more people like that)
6. And we're constantly promoting the game so more people can join in
If you want to play, contribute, or just hang out with community then feel yourself like at home.
Since i cant put up link here to our community discord feel free to click on my profile here and check out the feed post i did. The link it there. Hope this finds the necessary resonance amongst the people.
Oh man, I remember playing this absolute gem of a game as a kid in the mid 2000s... Didn't have a PC at home and this was the only FPS game that was available at my local internet café. This game is directly responsible for my love of FPS games, please bring it to GOG 🙏
I played this when I was in high school it's serious sam but not so serious and with a greek setting which gives it's own charm. I never did finish it though or maybe I did I just want the chance to experience it again on modern hardware I hope you guys can make it work flawlessly or maybe convince the guys at "night dive studios" to do some kind of remaster for it similar to turok.
I played the game around 20 or so years ago when i was a lee little lad, i had a ton of fun with it dispite me not being that good with games back then but i managed to beat it a couple times on medium difficulty after a while not getting stuck in places and such and have a good vivie memory of it enjoying it very much, despite being a "close" of serious sam or other types on horse shooter games.
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
