Avernum: Escape From the Pit - Released on PC

Avernum: Escape from the Pit is now available for PC for $20 and, of course, there is a sizeable demo to try. The feature list as a reminder:

• Epic fantasy adventure in an enormous underworld.
• Huge outdoors and eighty towns and dungeons.
• Three separate game-winning quests. Seek safety, escape or revenge. Do just one of them or all three!
• Unique races and settings make Avernum different from any adventure out there.
• Dozens of side quests and hundreds of magical artifacts.
• Rich game system with over 50 spells and battle disciplines and a multitude of beneficial character traits to choose from.

Sweet! I'm only about a 1/3rd through Geneforge 2 but this just went next on my list

It's $7.99 on Steam for the next week, also.

Huh, it is too - I'll update the original newsbit.

Also $7.96 on GamersGate, who will also give you another 5% in Blue Coins …

Can anyone compare this with the last version?

On the same day as Grimrock - what a bad idea!

I have slowly turned into a Steam junkie. That is, lots of cheap purchases, some not so cheap, all impulsive. I do believe $20 is too high for this title, so I can't wait to buy this one tonight for a fraction of the cost. Been looking forward to this release for awhile. I only played the demo years ago with no previous Spiderweb experience. If I'm disappointed no great loss, but I don't expect to be.

I am tempted to buy. (on steam)

But I allready have Avadon (that i barely started to play)

How does it compare to Avadon ?

Got it yesterday but it will have to wait till I'm done LoG. April is turning into the best rpg month of the year so far for me.

Already ordered my disc copy. Love Spiderwebs art on the sleave covers.

Also great that it is a Mac/PC 'SteamPlay' release!
