Scallywag In the Lair of the Medusa-ARMADA
It’s hard to believe someone would release game like this in 2008 but action dungeon / adventure Scallywag: In the Lair of the Medusa was released by group ARMADA tonight. I can’t believe the distributor tries to sell such a title - there are many freeware games which offer way more fun and better graphic. Anyway, it has just something over 100 MB so if you want to give it a try, you won’t complain about wasted bandwith at least…
Scallywag: In the Lair of the Medusa provides players with a fascinating array of options to explore, making every game a unique experience. Rapius will face dozens of monsters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, various environmental hazards, and deadly boss encounters. Along the way he’ll learn to craft items, drink potions, eat magic mushrooms, smoke fungus, imbibe booze (from cheap Gobbo ale to lip-smacking Moon River whiskey), and much more. Among other things Rapius can become invisible, diseased, hungover, poisoned, and even a werewolf (hopefully not all at once)!
Rapius must also master his lantern, his source of illumination in the underworld. If the lantern is turned up Rapius will be able to see (and be seen!) further into the void, allowing him to make long range attacks on his foes. If the lantern is turned down, Rapius can attempt to creep past danger, sidestepping beasties he’s not quite ready to tackle.
If the lantern is burning hot and bright, oil is more quickly consumed than when the wick is low. While oil flasks are scattered throughout the adventure, knowing when to flare and when to soften the light is a key strategy to Scallywag: In the Lair of the Medusa.

The box illustration is pathetic.
If there are so many freeware alternatives why don’t you name them?
Besides all the roguelikes there is a good flash one here:

i wish i was dead
whats the next movie
anybody really tried this out? cos it looks kinda fun … i remember the good old times playing diablo 1 …
greetings
Then play Diablo 2, don’t waste your time on this.
Requirements are just too high. I don’t have a microsoft compatible mouse.
So recommend some freeware games that are more fun with better graphics, please.
lol @ 9…
hahahahaha
This game got me sick!
DX 9.0c at least????
For what?? Maybe for a folder next to this?
Actually guys, despite your first impressions it a fun little game.. not woth $30, maybe $10, but it’s a fun distraction either way, gave my some entertaining moments.
maybe someone could be kind enough to name some good and fun freeware alternatives? =)
thanks
sounds intriguing
Guys, can anyone suggest a good dungeon game I can play with my brother over LAN then? We’ve done diablo 2 to death….is there a really good alternative to this one?
#17 try Neverwinter Nights 2 Mask of the betrayer with a Hamachi LAN.
wwwooottttt i luv this game!!! better than GTA 4!!!! wwwooooottt woooottttt
..the boxcover cant be for real…i suspect the guys from rlslog just opened up windows paintbrush and quickly painted some cover to give the idea this waste of a game actually has a own boxcover.
Rapidshare links?

Examples:
F.E.A.R. Combat, S.W.I.N.E., Ground Control, Far Cry, Shadowbane, Postal², Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory… there are gazillions of them!
@9
Well I don’t have CD-ROM
was there some sort of time warp singularity the designers were stuck in? or is this some sort of n00b school project game?
either way it looks awesome. and i really don’t mean that.
Superb Game!….If u Name it Game…LoL
Can’t we make a kids-corner for the above, Takes them out of the adult world they don’t understand and maybe with some msn added they can chat and play all day.
My CD-ROM is only 2X… damn i can’t play this =/
…and do not read RLS-Staff and -Poster but YOU with your stupid childish remarks.
Well… as someone who has no money, no dedicated 3D graphics card (using my onboard 2x AGP piece of cack) and a P3 900Mhz… I’m quite excited about this one!
Oh, and thanks Slang, those flash games are sweeet. I played to death the predecessor game to the one you referenced, so I’ll check that out too. Don’t forget, some of the best games available don’t have great graphics. 
(<– wise teachings of a cheap ass!)
it ok but little boring when i got to 6 level and die have to start over you cant save
Is this game better than halo 3?
lol you can’t even save ^^
pfff…ridiculous
i love the comments in such games you guys are really great keep on
The best posts here are crap movie and games. The comments are great!
@17 Jack Pinoski - try Sacred Plus and its expansion Underworld ,although a bit old,its the best Diablo clone around and has twists of its own as well. I saw some1 recommending NWN ,but its quite different to Diablo’s hack’n’slash as its based on D&D rules making the game far more complex. Any1 looking for h’n’s fun will love Sacred and its co-operative lan mode as well.

oh and @30 Orthodox Atheist: whats this bull about no money and sh*t? geforce 5200 agp goes for 23 euro-lol. whats this? u dont have 22 euro? get a fuc*ing life godammit and stop crying plz.
perhaps this had been made for years before getting released…
Maybe this is a port over from atari linx.
hey guys this must be one of those nethack look a likes?
I think in my country electronics aren’t cheap, but it’s possible (and not really hard) to buy complete computer, which will run Half-Life 2, for 25€.
Dammit I only have a 4x CD rom, do you think this may still wrk?
