Can you guess this old game from just one screenshot?
I’ll update this post with the answer at 5pm today if no one has guessed before then. Or if you do guess it before then, feel free to share your memories of a classic game.
Definetly Veil of Darkness. Before there were trench coats, there was an age where real men wore brown flight jackets. I used to imagine the Veil of Darkness hero was the same guy from Flashback. I still remember the Inventory screen and how cool it was to equip a medallion… and actually have it rendered on your character in the inventory screen! 16 years later, that rarely happens in modern RPGs.
The guy looks a bit like John “Hellblazer” Constantine. I wish there were some games based on the DC Vertigo comics line. How good would a Transmetropolitan or Preacher game be?

There’s a game that brings back some memories … wish I’d spent more time with it. Veil of Darkness.

No, no I don’t remember it. Will take the above peep’s word that it’s what it is :)
