So, do you like the Blake Stone games? I have a great love for the first game especially even though the follow up is prettier and more expansive.

I really like the cheesey sci-fi setting and the baddies are pretty fun too. The game feels quite different to it's Wolf Engine brethren thanks to the interactive elements like the scientists and the food dispensers. One of my favourite games of all time! Smile

I've got both of them, and I remember they where quite fun to play. Sadly though I don't believe I ever finished either one of them.

I had the full version of the first one... Fun game.

Never did beat it completely to be honest though.

Here's a question. Are there any Mods for these games?

There are a few but really not many. The inimitable Brian Lowe has, of course, got a page with most, if not all, of them on it:

Ack's levels are a particular labour of love. In fact I've occasionally hinted at him to make a proper TC. There's just not enough love for Blake & Co.

It doesn't help that the source was lost and has therefore never been released... Smile

Nice to see it had some stuff done with it a least Smile. Seems to be in the same boat as Blood is.

Got any suggestions for good ones to try out sometime?

BSE24 by Ack. Most things that contain BS graphics don't unfortunately use BS gameplay specifics. No map, no food dispensers, no interaction with scientists. They're basically just Wolf mods. Sad
