It's not on this page, but Zarf's System's Twilight is a fantastic puzzle game, one of my favorites. It was the first shareware game I paid for, way way back in the day (early 90s). (https://www.eblong.com/zarf/twilight/index.html https://www.eblong.com/zarf/twilight/index.html)
- MrRadar 8y agoIf you're never played System's Twilight before you can get a taste for it via in-browser emulation on the Internet Archive[1]. Note that the emulator doesn't support color or sound and the animations don't run at full speed, so if you enjoy what you see there you should install a better-featured emulator like Basilisk II to experience the game as it was intended. If you have previously played System's Twilight and want a new game along the same lines, check out System Syzygy[2] which is directly inspired by System's Twilight (and similar games from the same era like 3 in Three and The Fool's Errand). It's also written in Rust(!) and fully open source(!!)[3] in case you want to get a peak under the hood (or cheat a bit).
