As others have said, it’s a great game with lots of content. The GOG version should work on most systems, but the game will need the unofficial patch - otherwise, there are plenty of bugs left, plus some missing hints, dialog items etc. that will make for a confusing experience.

Unofficial patch: https://terra-arcanum.com/drog/uap.html

This patch now also includes the high resolution patch, along with high resolution town maps and audio. The high res patch is also recommended since it improves compatibility with modern systems.

Video Game Art

Create post

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.
