You may well be intimately familiar with Nox - there's a community that still keeps it working on modern machines, and creates mods for it. So when I learned it was an ARPG I've never played, I decided it was definitely worth a go. But I honestly had no idea what sort of game it even was. Then, as I browsed the archives on GOG.com, I spotted a game called Nox. Twas but a few weeks ago I was lamenting the lack of tangiable story and motivation in Action RPGs, as I wrote about one of my all-time favourites, Titan Quest, observing that the entire genre offers only two-thirds of a game.
Past Perfect is a retrospective column in which we look back into gaming history to see whether old favourites are still worth playing today.
