War has been waged across the kingdom of Myrtana. Orcish hordes invaded human territory and the king of the land needed a lot of ore to forge enough weapons, should his army stand against this threat. Whoever breaks the law in these darkest of times is sentenced to serve in the giant penal colony of Khorinis, mining the so much needed ore.
The whole area, dubbed "the Colony", is surrounded by a magical barrier, a sphere two kilometers diameter, sealing off the penal colony from the outside world. The barrier can be passed from the outside in – but once inside, nobody can escape. The barrier was a double-edged sword - soon the prisoners took the opportunity and started a revolt. The Colony became divided into three rivaling factions and the king was forced to negotiate for his ore, not just demand it.
You are thrown through the barrier into this prison. With your back against the wall, you have to survive and form volatile alliances until you can finally escape.

great game with a few minor flaws
I've always wanted to play Gothic - because my older brother played it on CD back in the day. No idea where those Gothic CDs went, but now for review - note that I haven't finished this game yet. First - graphics - for year 2001, I'm very surprised how this game holds up even to this game - for instance, when you compare this to Might and Magic 9 (MM9 was released year after Gothic), graphics look quite fine. Gameplay - if you're not a stupid mouse+keyboard only person, you will get used to the controlls really quick - I actually like idea of interacting with items through various key combinations. Flaws: game sometimes crashes and camera can be sometimes really clunky. Final rant: Play this game and don't let weird controls intimidate you from this gem!

Great Game, Get it at Steam
Played this gem of a game years ago and decided fire it up and play again. Sadly it doesn't work on Windows 10. You can probably get it to work with enough research, patching, and fiddling with .ini files but I just don't have the time for that. I just want to play the game. Apparently the version over at Steam doesn't have the same issue and it has Workshop support so it's easy to download and install mods.
