Nocturne is Terminal Reality's first foray into gothic horror and a fantastic one at that, the game has a interesting world, story and characters along with a solid atmosphere. It was also the precursor to the widely known and underrated BloodRayne game series.
It's hard to get running on modern hardware, and making it accessible would a great win for preservation and keeping TRI's memory alive!
This one should get a remake. I remember buying the game in my Canadian Tire store to ship it to a friend in France because it was unavailable there. Best old game I played.
THE GAME LOOKS SO COOL but i tried to download it and get a patch and it literally wouldn't launch
also i think it's important to preserve lesser known games like these and make them easily accessible for the general PC gaming audience and all that jazz
This is the first game I played that I had to upgrade my video card for just to get the lasers to look as awesome as they were, has a great story and matching soundtrack. If it was not for this game we would not have had "Bloodrayne" games and the gawd awful movies. This game should be a lot higher on the list I would love to play it again.
Found this game in a bin at EB games like 20 years ago. I fell in love with it instantly. It BLEEDS charm and character. At the time the game was quite technically impressive and I think its aged pretty well. It would be great if a new generation of gamers could get a chance to take this classic out for a spin!
My dad bought me my 1st PC along with Nocturne for Christmas(I was 25 at the time). Coming from consoles I'd never played 'a real game before' and Nocturne blew me away. I didn't realize games could look this good, sound this good or have the atmosphere this did. I didn't realize they could be this difficult either. Having separate stories was pure genius. A remake(done properly) would fly off the shelves, failing that making this playable today would still be a work of art
Started off playing BloodRayne and wanted to learn more about the series. Found out that it started with Nocturne. Just like BloodRayne it has love and care put into it and contains a good mature story too. The characters and world is also great to explore and get a idea of what it's like being in it. Even has real time wind physics for clothes and other great features before others had it. Definitely deserves a remaster and possibly a remake if they can find someone with the same voice as stranger and the others especially the stranger. Nocturne 2 should have happened but we never got that because of the rights expiring. This is definitely one of the game that needs to be preserves. Blair Witch should also be preserved too. If not all of it then preserve Blair Witch Volume 1 Rustin Parr since it's pretty much a story expansion of Nocturne.
The game was the first horror survival game I played, and I never played the full game. I got a cd full of demos from a magazine which i shared with a friend because I didn't own a PC, my family was too poor at the time to buy a PC for me and my brothers. But it didn't matter, I shared many great memories with my buddy playing this game and many other demos.
It is a great game that I think was the predecessor to games like BloodRayne. And it is great to save this game and make it affordable and available to everyone. At the moment, only available on abandonware websites.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The FallenThe Bajorans believe the alien species that reside in the wormhole near their planet are Prophets, worshipping them as gods and referring to the wormhole as the "Celestial Temple". Bajoran legend tells that millennia ago, the Prophets expelled another race from the wormhole, the Pah-wraiths, imprisoning them forever in the Fire Caves on Bajor. However, legend tells of three red Orbs which are said to hold the key to the Pah-wraiths' resurrection and return to the Temple, although none of these Orbs have ever been located. Or so it is thought.
