New game released - Wiliness 3

December 28, 2004 by ST Graveyard

News illustration image Hello everybody,

Well, last week my computer completely crashed and I had to reinstall everything from scratch. The other Legend members are all on holiday, and that's why our Christmas gift got delayed. But here it finally is. The great Laurent Kermel (Creator of Bold), released a new game Wiliness 3. The game is not finished, and the author isn't planning to complete it. But he released it anyway, after some tweaking. The first 5 levels of the game are playable, which are guaranteed for hours of fun. Wiliness 3 is a true RPG game in the vein of the classic Dungeon Master. For more info on how to install it, I suggest you visit Laurent's website. And you can download the game at our Wiliness 3 page as well.

Have fun, and please post your comments in the appropriate Atari-Forum thread.

Expect an interview with the creator real soon!

Random review

Crystal Castles is a very addictive game! It's not just any pac man rif, the 3D environment adds a lot to it. You'll be trying again and again to complete it! But be warned, it can be frustrating as hell. This game is yet another example of simplicity, but amazingly executed.
