This game is absolutely underrated. 20 years later, and it still has not received a re-release. This was one of my childhood games back around 2009 to 2012, and even though I haven't completed the game, I had fond memories with the story, especially some shocking moments where a main character dies. Another great moment was at the beginning, where after being tortured you are given an atmospheric intro to the controls, where a light shines to you, and you look at the light.
While it might seem a little bog-standard to some, I believe the atmosphere, story, and even mechanics are still worth experiencing, especially as a remaster on GOG, or even Steam, PS4/5, Xbox Series X/S, etc. I would love to play this with mouse + keyboard controls and updated, tweakable graphics with optional ray-tracing if that is possible. 9/10 game for me.
Cold Winter is screaming for a PC release. It's a violent FPS in the vain of Soldier of Fortune, that also lets you craft Molotov cocktails and lock picks which can give you alternative routes throughout levels. It had those great early rag doll physics and dismemberment.

SwagmanThat Swagman sure has a lot of nerve! He's another evil, demented fellow who's planning to take over the world for his own personal gain. And this guy means business. You see, he's basically a boogie-man who has the power to entrap people in their own nightmares forever. Fortunately, there are two brave souls out there ready to fight Swagman face to face. Their names are Zac and Hannah, two 8 year old twins.
Swagman is a combination of the platform and adventure genre. While in the "Real World", the game is adventure-like; find and collect items and/or keys to open certain doors. When you enter the dream sequences, called the Territories, the game becomes a platform game. The combination of genres and the whole real world/dream world is a neat idea and throw in some nice, cartoonish and highly colorful graphics and you've got a nifty little game.

Shadow of DestinyShadow of Memories (Shadow of Destiny in North America) is an adventure game. There are no action elements in the game, and the protagonist has no health bar. Each chapter has a time limit, during which Eike has to find a way to prevent the murderer from killing him. This is mainly achieved by traveling through time to different hours, days, years, and even centuries. Obtaining a crucial item, having a conversation with a specific character, or performing another action in the past will prevent Eike from getting killed. Time-traveling requires energy units, which can be found by exploring the town. If Eike fails to achieve the goal at hand within the allotted time and prevent his murder, the chapter must be restarted.
During the course of the game the player will have several choices and opportunities to change the future in various ways. Due to the time-traveling feature, many objectives can be accomplished in non-linear ways, branching the storyline and eventually resulting in eight different endings, six of which can be achieved during the first playthrough, and two others unlocked after having reached the other six.Fantasy Historical Mystery
