Great! I recently found a GK game when cleaning out a drawer (The Beast Within) but didn't try to load it because I doubted that it would play well on my newer computer. It is nice to know that they are bringing back some of these great games and that they will play on newer computers.

How did you like playing the game again? Was it still as good as you remembered it or were the graphics and gameplay too dated?

I'm hoping they will release the Zork games, Return To Zork, Zork Nemesis and Zork Grand Inquisitor.

Would truly enjoy being able to play GK:Sins of the Fathers and The Zork games without having to do any 'tweaking' because i don't 'tweet' or do much 'tweaking' either!

I keep looking for Ripper some day. I've got the game Ripper on the disk but it won't play on my xp won't even play on my win 98.

I am so delighted with GOG, now have the Tex Murphy games and 3 of the Myst series and I see they also list The Dig. Sure wish they would grab up games like Beyond Time and Grim Fandango and offer them too (don't remember the studios who made these and lots of others).

Hi,

This GOG sounds great, I would love to play GKI on my new computer.

Will the GOG download games work with Windows7?

Thanks

June

They don't list Windows 7 here, but there's more discussion about GOG and Windows 7 in their forum here.

Hi all,

I bought GK 1, not because I needed it, as I have the hard disks and all three GKs' are installed on a XP computer (via vigons, mispelled I'm sure)and they work good but I want to help the cause along. GK II, doesn't work as well as I would like so when it come out will see if it works better.

Great game place!

Hi Becky,

I went to the sites you susgested and I am going to study them. The people's questions and especially replies about Win7 look very promising.

But there is one thing I forgot to mention my computer has the 64bit, but so far everything I try seems to work OK. So I am going back to that second site and read what everyone has to say. It would be great to get GK1 on my Win7.

Thanks

June

There shouldn't be a problem with win 7 64-bit, since most of the games either use DosBox or ScummVM (already implemented in the installer).

Besides, the GOG team test all games on all win configurations - XP/Vista and now win 7

As for GK1 I can confirm it plays beatifully on Win7 Pro 64-bit.

The thing about GOG.com is, that you get addicted to games from them, because it's so darn easy and a trip down memory lane

Hi misslilo,

So glad to hear there are no problems with Win7 64 bits.

I am looking forward to downloading GK1 and other games.

Thanks

June

I too have the original GKI but I wanted to help the cuase. I downloaded it and it plays fine but the background music is missing. I just wonder if anyone else is experiencing this.

Hi everyone. I noticed someone asking about DOS box w/ the GOG games and I just downloaded Stonekeep and ran it. DOSbox seems to run on it's own automatically and I was in the game and playing in seconds! I'm thrilled to have found this because I always hated having to run DOSbox myself so this is a Godsend.

Just wanted to stick my head in and let you guys know.

Cat, off to Stonekeep for awhile longer

Just added Dark Fall: Lights Out and Vampire The Masquerade Redemption and a couple other goodies in the first post.

More good news! Thanks Ana!
