645574 2008-03-02 07:13:00 Can't remember what it was called but it was some kind of adventure game, similar style like Myst (point-and-click?) and was set in space/space themed

not realtime 3D but Win32, nothing old like DOS

They were maybe 6/7 games in the series, they were all free I think - I only played one of them (had dialup then and I recall they were quite large), where you start off in a spaceship with no-one else around...

can't really remember much else, except I think they were made by maybe swedish or polish people or something (bot not sure if/what)

Not that I have any idea if its a point and click game...

645577 2008-03-02 11:29:00 Wing Commander?

Not that I have any idea if its a point and click game...

That one is a space combat sim, more like freespace I imagine...


Space quest?

Not that one either, I'm afraid - both far too old and neither of them are/were free ....

I do think though that it _may_ have been on one of those CDs you get with computer magazines... might have a look and see if I can find it

645578 2008-03-02 11:47:00 Well what do you know? Internet magazine issue july 2001 - it's called 'StarFight 6: Gatekeepers'

If anyone's interested: www.jpproduction.fi (the others in the series are also on there)

Wonder if I'll still think it's any good? :lol:

645579 2008-03-03 01:17:00 Do you remember if it had a slogan like 'First space simulator' or anything like that that could help? I often remember games because of their catch phrase instead of their names for some reason. rob_on_guitar (4196)
