guyz,

I've been playing the Witcher, which Im liking quite a bit. It seems like it would be a good Appendix N book to me, which got me to thinking. What video games out there do you think are Appendix N material?

Ill start with:
The Witcher
The Witcher 2

Out of This World (a.k.a. Outer World, a.k.a. Another World) - it's an old action platformer from the early '90s that follows Lester, a young scientist, who finds himself transported to a different world and must fight for his survival.

There's all kinds of strange creatures, the landscapes are wild and alien looking, it's basically just about everything Appendix N rolled into a single game.

guyz, I just ran into a naked green lady in the Witcher! What could be more Appendix N that that? :lol:

The witcher character is pretty gritty, he's a monster hunter. Goes around looking for jobs to go and kill monsters off.

Dark Souls all the way.

Beside the excellent visuals and brooding atmosphere the game also has an "old school" vibe as well : take the time to learn to play, be smart, don't rush and you might survive. Go all spells blazing in a button mashin' extravaganza and you'll get your ass handed to you pretty fast.
