Future fantasy: A first look at Tides of Numenera

September 20, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The unofficial sequel to Planescape: Torment and official computer RPG for Monte Cooke’s Numenera is Torment: Tides of Numenera. You can watch 3 minutes of “pre-alpha footage” here. That’s awfully early in the cycle but it still looks good. What you get in your 3 preview are clips for choice-based focus of the game and […]

Numenera goes on pre-order with big discount

The Kickstarter asked for $20,000 and raised $517,255 from 4,658 backers. Bigger money followed. As a “sequel” to Planescape: Torment, Brian Fargo and inXile, launched Torment: Tides of […]

Chris Avellone was lead designer on Planescape: Torment. He may now join Torment: Tides of Numenera if the Kickstarter can break $3.5m. As of posting the project has raised $2,949,768 from 53,956 backers. That’s a huge total and smashes the $900,000 asking price. However, the $3.5m will be a tough ask; there are 13 days […]

An apology for The Complete Book of Elves?

March 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Kickstarter for Torment: Tides of Numenera is still pulling in the funds. They made a promise that designer Colin McComb would apologise for The Complete Book of Elves if they crossed the $2.5 million stretch goal. I think this is a harsh thing to ask any author or game designer to do. However, some […]
