Spiderweb Software—creator of the Avernum and Geneforge turn-based RPG franchises—has turned 25-years old. As they put it, “Back then, small developers sold something called ‘shareware.’ The World Wide Web barely existed. People took photographs on ‘film.’ Cell phones were the size of loaves of bread. Also, dinosaurs ruled the Earth.” So, yeah, they’re embellishing a bit, but they’re not embellishing the 25% off sale on all collections of their games

The Geneforge story is finally coming to a close. Last week, Spiderweb Software, Inc., announced the release of Geneforge 5: Overthrow for Macintosh, the final game in the epic, award-winning Geneforge series. This classic-style turn-based RPG dates back to 2002 with the release of the first Geneforge game. Originally for Mac OS Classic, the entire series has been updated to run natively on Mac OS X.

As with the previous games, Geneforge 5: Overthrow has a huge, open storyline, with dozens of different endings and paths to victory. Help the rebels or fight them. Kill your opponents or use stealth and diplomacy. Focus on the storyline or simply seek wealth and carnage. No matter how you play, Geneforge 5 offers an epic adventure with plenty of replay value.
