What is Steamland??
What old, possibly underrated, games do you still play?

Ahhh. Buka! Creator of the original Hard Truck games!Zekester wrote:..never released in the US, but there's an english demo for it here
It was known as Locoland in Europe, I think
Amazing that I haven't visited their web site in years. After playing Hard Truck 1 and loving it, I wrote them a fan email, and someone there actually took the time to write back, addressing all my points, albeit in pretty broken English. I was thrilled, especially when he mentioned that a sequel was in the works.
Re: Steamland--I love the screenshots. Haven't read much else yet. I just got all excited when I saw 'buka' pop up in the address bar when I clicked on your link.
edit: And I'd forgotten they also did the Echelon games. I have them both but have installed neither yet.
And it looks like they have a new third person (?!?) Hard Truck game just released also.
