Any one played the Blood games, I had a go with Captain Blood a few years ago but never got anywhere with it. Intend to have another go at it some time.

In the meantime I have been playing the sequel Commander Blood which is just as bonkers as the first game, although it has lost the language aspect of the first game and seems to be more linear as well.

There is apparently a third game called Big Bug Bang in the series but it was only released in France.

There's a fan site here for the games if anyone want to have a go with the first game.

Oh. My. God.

I remember this damn game. Played it on the spectrum... YEARS ago. Never got anywhere. I just remember that funny lost guy looking for the scientist or something, he leads you to the two warring faction guys who hate each other. I always wanted to know where this game went but just couldn't figure it out.

Series? You mean there was another???

Yes two but Commander Blood is a very different sort of game to the first one and the third one was never released in English.

I'm so tempted to try it now and see if its as weird as I remember. Didn't the hand/cursor start to get the shakes after a while?

Wasn't there an modern re-make in the works for Captain Blood? Anyone know what happened to it?

Ah, this was what I was thinking of http://captainbloodlegacy.blogspot.com/

Apparently it is still being worked on.

Is it still in development? The last updates are in 2013.

I honestly don't know, but you can read the novella of the original game here.
