GOG

Terraria (GOG) has been a family favorite for a few years now. The four of us will play co-op via LAN for hours each week and eventually get tired of it... then a few months later we'll create a new world and start playing a few hours a week again.


This game is never ending. You can explore, build, craft and fight all kinds of creatures forever. There are costumes, special events, bosses and all kinds of biomes. There is never a dull moment as long as you enjoy digging. You will spend hundreds of hours digging for ores and crafting them into bars to build your weapons, tools, armor and much more.

Terraria has re-invented the platform game with its huge sandbox worlds and non-linear exploration. Go anywhere you want, avoid traps and hordes... store all of your loot and go looking for more. What else could you want?

Quests?
Yes, Terraria has that too...

Tower Defense?
Yes, Terraria has that too...

Trading?
Yes...

Recently I've been playing Torchlight II in Steam and GOG. Both versions still run perfectly without issues and I was able to play co-op online and offline with friends and family. The game still absolutely ROCKS with intense mini-bosses, randomly generated minions and huge boss fights. Your character will level up quickly so each time you play try a different class and level up a different skill. Its like playing the first time over again, but you are familiar with the levels and story, but even the levels change a bit.

I have been playing Alan Wake recently (tested previously but never finished) and decided to give DXVK a try. It runs really well with only minimum graphical artifacts. Other than the audio not working during the cut-scene's it is an awesome game! I love the lighting effects and shadow/wind effects. The game mechanics and puzzles are really fun and intense.
