Game Groups > Dark Designs series

A six-part suite of stock fantasy RPG tropes, composed of two distinct trilogies. The first one features one of John Carmack and John Romero's pre-iD collaborations under the auspices of Softdisk; the second triad of games is a later Softdisk production, reusing and modifying Carmack's game engine. The storyline can be considered connected to the Catacomb series, also by Softdisk, whose first 3D installment also features house baddie Grelminar as the main antagonist.
