Disclaimer: I changed a little the layout and thanks for the contributions!

The Idea:

On my old Mastodon Profile i’ve made a list of Rebuilds/Fan Remakes/SourcePorts (when possible opensource, no commercial remakes) for old PC Games, and i want to share it here on Lemmy too, so people can easily find it.

Why?

I’ve played lot of these games, and i’m glad there a Fans who still working on these games, to make it accessible on modern systems and giving them some QoL improvments. In my opinion, that’s a great way to preserve old games from being forgotten and keep playable for new players. Also these people need some recognition (at least) for their hard work.

I’m glad If you help to complete this list and contribute some games you know.

In the moment there are alphabetical sorted:

  • 54 PC Games in total
  • 41 Remakes, SourcePorts etc.

New additions will be marked with *

The List:

There is also the List here https://osgameclones.com/, who did unknown to me the same.

Addendum SCUMMVM:

SCUMMVM is the first place for adventure games from Lucas Arts (Monkey Island etc.) or Sierra (Kings Quest etc) anf for the RPGs from Origin (Ultima VI), Westwood (Eye of the Beholder) and New World Compting (Might and Magic I, III and IV), but also many more. Here you can check the list of games out.

Addendum “Inspired Games”

I think that games divergence too much from the original games, but also should be mentioned.

Addendum Console Games:

If you are looking for Ports for Console Games to PC here is this list on GitHub

Also i would recommend the Open Source Port of the First two Jake and Daxter games
