Didn't see this one posted, but it sounds interesting: http://www.instantkingdom.com/driftmoon/

And with an editor too, interesting!

Ive owned driftmoon since alpha. Pretty fun, solid game for sure.

And they just released the final version actually. I havent played it in a while, but when i do its always fun. Now that its finished, ill probably play it again since i want to see where the story goes for sure!

I've owned Driftmoon for a while too - glad to see it is finally completed - I left off where the beta ended so now I can finally finish it

Looked interesting but it doesn't seem to be available for Macs.

Driftmoon..11.99 on GOG..Looks great..

It is great! I have almost finished my first run through and enjoyed every minute of it. Well worth the $11.99 and I haven't even tried any of the mods yet which come with the game. And all updates are automatic and free.

Please make my day and tell me Driftmoon is turn-based......

Aren't you also a Mac player, Painted Lady? Driftmoon is sadly Windows only.

Sword of the Stars - The Pit

Turn-based RPG based on the Sword of the Stars series. Might be worth checking out - I like it

I hate real time games but loved Driftmoon. It is pausable and you can save anytime. While paused in combat you can give orders so the difference is small. I just finished the game and even managed to defeat the final Boss. You can't know how unusual that is for me. It wasn't that easy but I did it and have the great feeling of actually finishing a game. I played Diable 2 right up to the final chapter and discovered that I had no chance at all of winning. I would have to go back and fight thousands of monsters to gain the levels needed to be able to win the last battle. Too boring and discouraging-tossed the game in the trash. Too bad you only have a Mac. I think you would enjoy this little gem.

Actually I also have a Windows system that I pull out when I'm desperate.

I, too, can play some Windows stuff. Have my Mac partioned (is that the word?) but I hate having to do a click fest to get to it.

Partitioned. I was going to do that, or use Parallels, but never did. My brother who works at Microsoft even kindly sent me Windows once.

I'm definitely going to do it on the next Mac system I get - I think all modern Macs have Boot Camp pre-installed(?). So it's just a question of partitioning the hard drive, and getting a hold of a version of Windows...

(...though which version of Windows to get, for maximum game playability/compatability, was always what I was unsure of - Is Windows 7 the best choice here?... )
