Sacred Gold On Linux Has Gone Gold

Posted by Michael Larabel on March 06, 2009

It took longer than expected, but Linux Game Publishing is now prepared to ship Sacred Gold. The description of this game is below.
In his fortress of Shaddar-Nur, the necromancer Shaddar, a pariah of the Band of Mages from Mystdale Castle, plans his triumphant return to the world of Ancaria. To strengthen his magic powers, he summons a Sakkara Demon, whose power he will absorb himself. These Sakkara Demons rule over those damned to rot in hell, the undead. Not since the Era of the Gods have any of these creatures set foot in Ancaria, not since the Seraphim army drove them back to their dimension during the Wars of the Gods.

Linux Game Publishing believes the game will begin shipping to customers on the 25th of March. The announcement was initially made on the LGP blog. Also being worked on by Linux Game Publishing is Jets 'n' Guns as well as a title we have been looking forward to, Shadowgrounds: Survivor. More information about the Linux version of Sacred Gold can be found on the LGP product page.
