This is a pretty good one, played KoDP ages ago and actually bought the
digital version again real cheap a few months back (had it originally on
disc). I understand it plays a bit like Oregon Trail, which I haven't
played.

I'm kinda tempted to get that on the iPad as it seems well suited to
that format and it's set in the Runequest world.

I already have it on disk, GOG and Steam, so I'll pass as well.

I don't remember the game that fondly anyway, although it's been years
since I've played it (when did it originally come out, 2005?). It's a
weird mix of text-heavy "choose-your-own-adventure" style adventure
and strategy that never really appealed to me. Plus, there's always
been something about Glorantha - the RuneQuest setting - that rubbed
me the wrong way.

But thanks for the update.

I always thought the duck race was funny, but I've never played let alone
read RuneQuest and have no idea what sets it appart. I'd be happy to
try it if I ran across a game.

This is almost intriguing enough to register there, almost.
