dtgreene: Should I get Darklands during this sale?

Pros:
* Non-XP based growth system.
* Appears to be an unconventional design.

Cons:
* Real time with pause combat. (At least it can't be said to be copying Baldur's Gate,)
* Witches appear as enemies, but not as playable characters.

Also, one question: Apparently characters can grow old. Can you create new young characters to replace them?

Another game I've been looking into is The Dark Heart of Uukrul. Is that game any good?

(If you're going to recommend any other games in this topic, please make sure that they're around the same age as these two games, and not something more modern.)
