Hello, everyone.

I was just re-playing my Demo of Zanzarah (after quite a long while), and it went directly under my top 5 of the most beautiful games. It's incredible what kind of detail has been put into this game.

Other games are Age of Wonders (all parts), and Wizardry 8, which I consider to be very beautiful, too.


So - what do you think ? Apart from the genre or gameplay, which games do *you* consider to be not only "good looking", but really beautiful ?

I wonder what you will write. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

First Unreal was beautiful. Landscapes, sky, waterfalls.

Concerning appearance I would mention Gothic2, Morrowind and Freelancer first.

Alrik do you have a link to Zanzarah? I do not know about it.

It didn't work with Win XP on my PC, only with Win98SE and my detonator drivers had to be the 40.xx, not the new ones. But I agree, it's a really beautiful game (graphics) and I enjoyed gathering fairies.

and this one? Sorry, I just went to the first lvl in the other link. I don't know if I can trust this manager though.


Zanzarah download, click here

pcgameworld. gameservers .net

this one (3rd link) seems to work as download and if not: PM me, I'M sure, I've got the German demo somewhere in my gaming mags.

I don't understand it, now the 3rd link does not work, but the 2nd one, (mirror something)appears with the download box. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />

StarTopia is near the top of my list. There was so much work put into that. The Myst series and the graphical Zork series were very beautifully presented as well.

sacrifice is a beautiful game. beautiful & dang hard to win. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />

homeworld & now homeworld 2 are also beautiful. the space scape is a wonder.

final fantasy games (the CG movies especially) are beautiful. unique & colourful characters & creatures as well as settings.

Ok so I know that we are all PC fans here but the mostbeautiful game that I have ever played was Grandia II. The graphics were incredible (for the time and are still pretty good) not only that but it had the single best storyline that I have ever played. It was
