Jeff Vogel has released his remake of the original Avernum for Mac. If you’re a Mac user, the game can be yours for $20; if you’re a Windows user, you’ll have to wait for “Q1, 2012.” Either way, here is a trailer showing off the game in its new engine.

Sinister Design has just posted an official release date for the up-and-coming Middle-Eastern-steampunk strategy RPG Telepath RPG: Servants of God.

Here’s another one for the “New to Me” file. Team Wanderlust writes in to inform me of the existence of their four-player co-op action RPG, Wanderlust: Rebirth. This one was evidently released in mid-June of this year, if you believe the reviewer over at TIGSource (personally, I believe him). Here is how the developers describe [...]

Anders Staugaard has emailed me announcing the development of a 3D, first-person, wilderness survival RPG by the name of Forging Life. He is part of a two-man team developing what looks to be a highly ambitious game. Here is how he describes it: We might be a couple of nerds missing the old days, but [...]

It’s been a bit of a slow month for indie RPG news so far, but that hasn’t dissuaded the intrepid Jay Barnson from penning another news round-up collecting the latest dribs and drabs of information about upcoming (and already-released) indie RPGS into one useful post. Piggy-backing off of Jay’s round-up, here is all of the [...]

This one took me by surprise. With a name like “Secrets of Grindea,” I expected to find a generic jRPG with (what else?) endless grinding. Not exactly. Developer Pixel Ferrets describe the upcoming 4-player-cooperative action RPG like so: Secrets of Grindea is an old-school RPG, with co-op support for up to 4 players. In the [...]

Philip Neubauer of Gravel Train writes in to inform me of the release of a free, short demo of his prehistoric strategy RPG, aptly named Stone Age Square Battle.
