Gothic 1 Classic
You're thrown into a mining penal colony sealed under a magic barrier. You start out so weak you must toughen up before the harder quests; you join one of three camps, learn from teachers and explore with no quest markers.
Why play it now
When you fancy a classic RPG where you earn the respect of a camp in which every prisoner follows a daily routine.
Who it's for
For anyone who enjoys old-school European RPGs and would rather find their own way than follow arrows.
When not to pick it
If clunky controls frustrate you: reviews criticise its control scheme and its bugs.
