Bottom 768 — Week 6 — Poll 10

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Saturday... or Sunday or Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

Woo-hoo I get to vote for the epic Stygian Abyss. A shockingly good dungeon RPG. It’s amazing how fun old games can be.
No more nightmares, I’ve seen them all. From the day I was born, they’ve haunted my every move.

The UU series was not only fun, but a pioneering example of using the 2.5D graphic style of Wolfenstein and Doom for something other than an FPS. Great game, and part of an important lineage that ran up through the System Shock and Thief series.
