About

Gorky 17 is a role-playing game set in a fictional polish town of Gorky 17. The town was attacked by mutants and destroyed. Several years after these events a NATO group disappeared near Gorky 17. You take control of the second team sent to find missing allies. Another goal of the game is to reveal the reason why monsters appear.

You manage a group of three people: Cole Sullivan, the operation leader, and his two subordinates. The characters can be upgraded; the line-up changes during the game. Gorky 17 features several huge locations you can freely explore while some areas require special items to be opened.

The game features turn-based battles with a heavy tactical accent. You are strictly limited in supplies so wise ammo management is a must. Sometimes you need to fulfill a certain task during fights, such as protecting someone; some fights are time limited. A character’s death leads to restarting the battle.

OK: this game has a few years, it's a "classic" (has what I read), and many loved it when it came out in the last century. It does not prevent him from being ugly, unplayable and bugged from everywhere. I'm regrting to have slammed a few cents for this daube...

You might have to tinker a little with a current Windows 10, but it's a great Game. The Graphics look great, the Speakers are great, the little Secrets are Fun. The Quallity of the Games of That time was just something else. Even after all these Years is good To play, so super matured. For the Price you can strike quietly.

I am very happy with this most beautiful and wonderful game auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu world!!! And I'm modest with that! And why and why? Because it's the best game of the world! Sure! And I have not even play five minutes, I swear, besides I was able to increase my stock of rotten game (but that do not look), IE if my opinion to importance! Laughing out loud!

If the previous Reviews have already pointed to it, from 1999, in PC Years, is uuuuuuuralt, but still Fun. Had it on the Amiga before ... I think at least, but after the Years the Story was like new. Like me because ... + turn-based + challenging, but not too heavy + cute story that can captivate with Surprises (Where did the Reporter even stay? * lol) Shame that the Successor was canceled! (The Game ends with a Cliffhanger.)

It is in the old pots that we make the best soups... This game, surrounded by ancient graphiqmes, keeps all its magic and its suspense during lap-by-turn battles during which it is necessary to manage ammunition and character health. A real management game, both in terms of the evolution of the characters, the rise of their skills and the Constitution of their inventory as in the choices of fights that sometimes need to start several times before finding the winning strategy the least Expensive. I had spent hours DeSUS many years ago when he had been offered with a video game magazine... Well, it's gone again.

Unfortunately, the Difficulty of the Game robs the Player of any Desire to Play Through. From the half of the Game I only got on with a Solution Description and in the end not even it helped to create the Game. At the Point where you meet the Reporter, I didn't get any further, no matter what I did. So I couldn't play the Game to the end ... I recommend you from the Beginning after instructions for Games, which of course is also no Fun. So I recommend you garnciht to buy the Game first:D The Basic Principle of the Game is great, you can level, manage the Team. Moves into battles in Grid fields ... Everything you want in a turn-based RPG. The Difficulty unfortunately destroys the whole Game
