Retro PC classics like Chasm: The Rift and Blade of Darkness are currently part of a massive Humble Bundle sale. For only $10 / £7.63, you can now own 23 PC classics from the late '90s and early '00s. Two of those classics particularly stand out for us here at PCGN.
Chasm: The Rift is one of the FPS games.
For those who want to play a dark fantasy RPG, early '00s PC gaming fans (such as yours truly) call Blade of Darkness a 'prototype' of the Dark Souls formula. Way before we had everything in the best soulslike games list, Blade of Darkness carved out a niche among hardcore gamers.
It bears many soulslike hallmarks, albeit with less subtle lore and more hacking things up into bloody pieces. A dark fantasy atmosphere, tough-as-nails combat, and multiple playstyles make the game feel familiar for FromSoftware acolytes. However, surprisingly forward-thinking features like dynamic lighting and a robust engine for in-game interactivity make it a pioneer of the genre.
In addition to these classics, you can enjoy over a dozen other titles as part of the deal. Here's a list of other notable games included in the SNEG Video Game Classics Humble Bundle you may want to check out:
- Diggles: The Myth of Fenris
- Witchaven
- Veil of Darkness
- Necroddome
- CyClones
The SNEG Classics Sale ends on Thursday, October 24, 2024. You can also pay more than $10 / £7.63 for the bundle, as all proceeds go towards Direct Relief. The charity will help those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton in the United States.
