Greetings from Spiderweb Software! We just looked up from frantically

working on our newest game, and we realized that we have a birthday to

celebrate. We couldn't wait to let you know about it, since it gives us

a great excuse to sell games on the cheap for a month!

 

Plus, we have the first information about Geneforge 3, and great news

about Blades of Avernum.

 

* Spiderweb Software Tenth Anniversary Sale

 

Ten years ago, we at Spiderweb Software began our great work. We had

nothing but a new computer, a cockroach-infested apartment, lots of

coffee, and a dream: to bring the great fantasy rpgs of the eighties

back to life. With pretty much the same quality graphics.

 

Eleven games and tens of thousands of satisfied customers later, we're

still in business. The coffee is better, there are no more cockroaches,

and we're still putting out fun, cheap games for fantasy gamers.

 

So come join us in our celebration! For the month of November, all of

our products are ten percent off! Explore the alien, completely

open-ended epic story of Geneforge, or sample the many free adventures

made by the Blades of Avernum community. On the cheap!

 

And countless thanks to all of the people who have supported us over

the years, with your kind words and your hard-earned money. Thanks to

you, we hope to keep going strong for ten more years. Or until we

totally burn out.

 

Nice, big demos for all of our games can be found at

* First Geneforge 3 Screenshots

 

Our next game will be Geneforge 3. It's the sequel to the hit fantasy

adventures with a sci-fi twist, Geneforge and Geneforge 2. Soon, we

will be announcing the new title to the new world, but subscribers of

this newsletter get the very first look at the new screenshots.

 

To see how it looks, go to:

Geneforge 3 will be bigger and more exciting than the previous games.

And, as always, it will let you decide what side to fight on, and

follow your goals with your own army of deadly, custom-made monsters.

Watch our web site for more information. It should be ready in the

first half of 2005.

 

* Blades of Avernum Updated

 

Blades of Avernum, our new fantasy role-playing game for Windows and

Macintosh, is doing great. There is already a community of bright and

hard-working folks making new adventures for it, and many gamers

struggling to overcome those new challenges.

 

We have released new versions of Windows Blades of Avernum (v1.0.2) and

Macintosh Blades of Avernum (v1.1.1). These updates fix a number of

small but annoying bugs. The new demo can be found at

* New Blades of Avernum Adventures

 

We now have five quality adventures for Blades of Avernum. Finished the

quests that come with the game? Come by our web site for some more free

fun. The available adventures, A Perfect Forest, Emerald Mountain, The

Cave of No Return, Babysitting, and Roses of Reckoning, can be found at

By the way, there are still quite a few months in the Blades of Avernum

scenario contest, in which the best user-made adventures can win cash

prizes!

 

That is all for now. You'll hear from us again when Geneforge 3 is

ready. And, hopefully, we'll have some good news about Avernum 4 for

you soon. Have happy holidays, and be sure to stay indoors playing

computer games!

Note the four-page thread on this very topic over in General.

 

In short: we know little more than that it is Avernum 4, it will have a new engine, and it will come out after Geneforge 3.
