GOG - Al-Qadim: The Genie’s Curse released

A great old game returns to GOG. Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse is now available to buy and play.

The call of adventure beckons!

Set out to sea and become a Corsair in Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse, a new Dungeons & Dragons action-RPG coming DRM-free to GOG.com
You are the youngest son of a Noble Merchant and an easy life lies ahead - but alas, your soul yearns for adventure and the affections of Kara, the Caliph's beautiful daughter! You set out to sea, as only becoming a Corsair can grant you her hand in marriage.

More information.

I remember having some fun with this one back in the day, and I always loved the Al-Qadim setting. We'll see how well it holds up.

Now, where's my Dark Sun?

I never played this one, but the campaign setting looks pretty cool.

Unfortunately, it appears to be more of an action-adventure game than a typical D&D RPG.

I remember enjoying this when it first came out and being quite disappointed that there was never a sequel!!

Great game.

They also released the original D&D Stronghold

I didn't like this much, as I found it pretty shallow and not RPG enough for me.

Also, I've never really been a big fan of desert settings.

I've never actually played this game. It looks cool for its time through and the gog reviews sound positive. I must say I enjoy the setting in general so maybe that would make a difference for me.

I remember playing this for the first time when it came out and thinking, "This is what happens when D&D meets Zelda."
