Since I'm not into adventure games, it's not for me, but, like Zeewolf, I'm happy to see not-so-well known, but apparently solid releases here.

Well, I remember the name of this game but never played it. Is the entire game played within the smaller window as the screens show?

Well, yeah, obviously. I just wasn't aware there was a DOS version of that game. Even though 99% of PC games were DOS back then, there were always that odd 1%.

Buried in Time is definitely a classic in my book, and instabuy! Matt Weinhold as Arthur is one of my favourite ingame companions of all time - both your friend, your resident stand-up-comedian, history expert, and hint system, all rolled up in one!
Oh, and the great writing, the painstaking attention to historic detail, the great atmosphere, fun puzzles, fascinating environments, the completely random and redundant interactions (not often we see that in a adventure game)... I could keep on going all day of what makes BIT a great game, but I'll just say this: if adventure is your thing, if you love history and sci-fi as much as I do, I think you will like Buried in Time, I think you will like it a lot.
Once again: THANK YOU GOG!

@Skystrider: Ssshh, don't spoil Arthur for them :P.
@Faithful: Yes, the in-game item menus/hint system and controls (you can move around by clicking on arrows on the screen or using the number pad) are all housed in the area surrounding that window.
This game was released in '95 if I remember correctly, and high resolution video would have taken up too much size (also might have affect performance on slower machines). So to keep the game to 3 CDs(and make sure the video isn't too pixellated) this smaller picture system is used. You get used to it quite quickly though as you're inside a suit (my avatar).

WTF, GOG? 1995? This site is dying. Come back when you've got a real "good old game," like from 1993 or something.

It won't be GOG until we're able to download ancient Japanese sudoku parchments.

I need advice. I have played through JM3 a few times and really enjoyed it (up until some of the timed sequences near the end, which basically ruined it for me). I have attempted to play JM1, but the early timed sequences put me off completely. Basically, I hate adventure games that kill you if you don't complete something fast enough. It doesn't add any dramatic tension for me, it just adds annoyance.
So, given my strong opinions, and given the screenshot about getting caught in a silly Monty Python skit because "he didn't ascend fast enough", I strongly suspect that I won't enjoy JM2. I'd really like for someone to convince me otherwise, though. Knowing the above, and knowing that I hate pretty much every game that Jane Jensen was ever involved in (action/timing issues, plus bizarre puzzle solutions that only make sense inside a game), what is the likelihood that I would enjoy JM2:BIT? Any hope?

Anyone for a game of Senet? http://www.funmin.com/online-games/senet/index.php

Oh, a Journeyman Project O_O !!!.... mine mine XD
Thanks GOG

@MacReiter: I understand where you're coming from, and I dislike most Sierra adventure games for the same reason. However those instances in Journeyman games are much less frequent. I do recall at least one in BiT which is annoying, although that was partially due to a crash bug in the original release. There's also a sequence where you need to time your movement/jumps to navigate a maze or obstacle course of sorts (I'm trying not to ruin it as much as possible).
However, it really hasn't prevented this trilogy from becoming my favourite games ever. The whole storyline makes up for it IMO.
I can just advise that you save at the appropriate moments so that you can pick up and continue straight away (it doesn't take that long to get past these points). The obstacle course thing is easy to spot, so you'll know when to save. The annoying timed/crash bug thing... I'll just say this: If you find yourself on the roof of a medieval castle - SAVE.

I only found out about part 3 when Vista became my main OS and I couldn't seem to get it to even start up, not even in compatibility mode. Buried In Time however worked fine on Vista and that's older. I'll just pray and hope GOG release part 3 rather than spend hours fiddling with it to get it to run :P

Throw sticks!
Yeah, I don't think I've quite mastered that game just yet. The sticks conspired against me. Probably because I kept throwing them. Who knows?

Well, I haven't heard of this one. Might deserve a closer look though.

Will be picking this one up. I hope this means we will get 'The Journeyman Project 3: Legacy of Time' which I really enjoyed back in the day.
Nice one GOG!
