Tales of Golruth games?

Okay so i've been looking over these games on the HOL and am rather confused as to what order they even go in. . Near as i can tell i believe it's tear stone saga, then traveling magician, then dungeon of reminiscence. I haven't the slightest idea where heroes of gorluth fits into things. I'm trying to figure this out because i'd like to play through them in order.

The link to the official site for the games seems to be dead.


I found tear stone saga in a hdf on the eab file server. But i'm not sure where to find the other games in this series. Hoping that someone here can point me in the right direction.


Oh and i'm looking to play them on winuae not real hardware.

Yep, that's the order. You can piece it together when looking at the 'middle' game of the series: https://hol.abime.net/6201

It's a spin-off.

Yep I'll remove them for now. Recently there was a bundle with the games, but I can't find the thread right now.

Thanks for clearing up the order the games go in. Now that just leaves trying to find the remaining 3.

Unless i've just misunderstood things the hdf i found on the server contained the 3 parts of the tear stone saga. Which still leaves hunting down magician, dungeon of reminiscence and heroes.

That's good to hear. I use a windows folder that acts as a hd for winuae. I have a dvd drive as well. Will i simply be able to copy over the files and use them in winuae? Oh and i live in the USA as well. So i dunno if i'll even be able to use the cd, since different region and all.

I'm not against the idea of buying the games, i'm simply trying to make sure i'd actually be able to use them if i do.

The games are going to be improved I think. At least ToG3 should be rewritten in Scorpion AFAIK.
What I really like is the series soundtrack.

One option is to convert the CD into an ISO image and then use it in WinUAE as though it was a CD32 + FastRAM.

Or I am sure there will be a HDD installer on the disc

This order has finally arrived and since i don't see installers i am in the process of copying the games into their own folders using dopus. I noticed in the English drawer for TOG1 that there was a TOG0? So made 1 drawer to put that in and then 3 more for TOG1 through 3.

EDIT
At a glance all of the games seem to run off of hd just fine, no assigns were necessary.

EDIT2
Oh and does anyone know how saving works in these games?
