Apparently GAGA Communications Inc. (aka GMI) also published the PC version in Japan, which is the reason why they ported Darkseed to Saturn and PS1.

Updated:

v1.1 25/04/2025

Some character issues have been fixed.
The clue items are described (with the help of the game’s documents),
and when you pick up certain objects, the sentence now makes more sense — some phrases were previously reversed.
I'm trying to remove some sprites from the beginning of the game that are in Japanese.
Unfortunately, it's compressed data, so it'll take me a bit more time to deal with that...

Giger's headspace must be fun with the kind of nightmarish visages he conjures.

far from it, but if you are curious, better try the SVGA pc dos version or the windows repack above

I downloaded the DOS version of this game off an abandonware site in 2009. It seemed promising based on the screenshots and the HR Geiger art. I was disappointed when I actually played the game. It's a pretty bad adventure game. There's a global timer that is always ticking, and there are multiple soft-lock scenarios. I caved and used a walkthrough eventually. It was still bad. The horror vibes are barely there. Play it for the laughs if you want. The VA from the CD version this translation uses is special.

I played this thing back then in my Amiga500. My cousin showed me (he also had an Amiga500) and I was freaking out. I considered that horror when I was 10. It's interesting they translated the thing for Saturn.

Not bad. Another win for us SATURN/SAROO owners!

Apparently has a few time-based puzzles?

 

[STUPIDCIDAL]

Anyone got the PC version?

For anyone who doesn't know this game, check out Majuular's YT video on Dark Seed, "Are You Afraid of the Dork?", it's a riot and also a very learned showcase of two very overlooked 90s adventure games.

I am so glad you mentioned Majuular. His video on this and the sequel are great!

Thank you for another unknown interesting game.

this one was talked about a lot and caused some controversy back in the day. this particular port is a faithful looking oddity

Please change the box art, its for the (which as English but the rest is still untranslated) PS1 version which is still here, judging by the PS1 logo.

I noticed that the "genre filtering" is messed up, don't know where to report it so I leave this here:

Sega Saturn ISOs SS Roms Download – RGT Repository

Download Sega Saturn ROMs. Play SEGA Saturn ISOs on your PC or phone using emulators. Relive classics like Panzer Dragoon, Nights, Gex, Guardian heroes & more.

retrogametalk.com

As you can see the filter is set to "point and click" and what I get is "point and click" genre and pretty much everything else... And it's obviously not because there's only one game in the "point-and-click" (with the rest provided as "default results") "Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice" is also in the "point-and-click" category but only appears on page 2 of the filtered by genre results.

Watch Majuular’s video on it, and you’ll know if you want to treat it that way or not LOL

I played this game when i was just a kid on my grandfather's computer. It used to scare me and i was too young so i never finished it.
