I have been going through the CRPG and trying out RPGs from the mid 80s to late 90s and it is tough because many of them want you making a party before you can play the game proper, and I don't have faith that the games are going to save and restore properly. The Dark Heart of Uukrul is one such game. And it looks great, displays properly on my monitor. But I just went through the character creation process and tried to save. No confirmation. A bad sign!
@icecreamjonsey I only learned about this game within the last year (weirdly enough first on the Apple II when looking for RPGs, then realized GOG had a DOS port), and I had a ton of fun with it. Parts of it have definitely aged but overall I still thought it was an engaging RPG.
