Thanks! I probably missed that since it's in the Darkside section. "Most combat is optional" sounds good though.

Yes, I just got an email from them.

Ken and Roberta, along with Al Lowe, Jane Jensen, Ron Gilbert, and others, are going to be at PAX West 2022 in Seattle. I would certainly try to go if I were in the area.

I would love to go to PAXWest 2022!!! Unfortunately it 's a little too far... I can only hope something comes to Nashville.... I might even go to San Francisco if there was one there..... First Japan,, then Germany,,, now Seattle..... ahhhhhhh

If you have not gotten around to reading the news clips or not listened to the interview check them out. Good reads and interviews

"Sierra founders got ‘bored’ in lockdown so they’re making their first new game in more than 20 years"

“Without Colossal Cave, Sierra On-Line would never have existed, and I would not have my career, or Ken either,” she says.

I wonder what game Ken was working on when Roberta mentioned CC. It is possible there could be another......

Ken and Roberta were on Day of the Dev's Nov 3rd showcasing CC. You get to see some actual gameplay with a little inventory use. Starts 26:50 into the video. Lasts about 4 min. Still suppose to release this Fall

Thanks Orion! I didn't see any mention of it coming to Steam or GOG, just Epic Games.

I can't find any info on the game coming to Steam or GOG. It is already up on Epic. There is suppose be a boxed version as well. Have to get my hands on one of those for sure. Wonder what the issue is with Steam. GOG would not suprise me if they don't get it oldbroad and really be shocked if Steam does not carry it

Steam finally has Colossal Cave listed oldbroad. Was hoping I would not have to go through Epic but would have if necessary. Still no sign of it on GOG

Thanks for the info Orion! I'm good with Steam but haven't started up with Epic and don't really want to.
