Shadow of the Horned Rat, Chaos Gate and Final Liberation are all available on GOG now.

Sorry, the Joker has it. In spite of their name they have both old and new games. When they sell an old title, it's fixed up to run on modern computers. I can add, for Linux users, that if you disable the videos in the ini file, Final Liberation plays great under WINE. (Some windows users apparently have had to do that too). Chaos Gate runs in WINE too, though with no music from my cursory look.

Thanks, think I'll give one a go for old times sake.

GoG is run by the same people that make the witcher games.
