@ninja8tyu what do you mean this wasn't a russian-made game, i played that too, from a "shareware" retailer, i remember my dad downloading cracking those games so they could be played without a time limit

@lina i remember i installed a free trial, which i then somehow broke on a few games to play indefinitely everytime afterward
too bad that the company seemed to have stopped making games entirely

@ninja8tyu from what i see alawar started as being on the russian market and then went international and apparently are headquartered in america, weird shit

@lina a lot of the details about the game are also just lost, like some of the music composers and stuff
the music in the games were, i guess kinda generic, but it was the early internet and everything generic at the time sounded good compared to the slop we get today
i was looking back on it and wondered what instruments they used in the ost

@ninja8tyu i guess them making obscure casual games, like other games alawar published, is why there's so little info on em, i think those outfits broke up by the end of the 2000s and went into bigger studios
