Oct 28, 2008 7:19:58 Dark Sun was a 2nd Edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons pen & paper rpg in the 1990s, then was converted by fans - with an official charter from Wizards of the Coast - into 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons in the 2000s.

The two PC games set in the world of Dark Sun were made in the 1990s. As for getting those games, there are several online fan sites that would allow you to do that, probably free of charge. Make a good Google search and you'll find it.

It is a homebrewed/converted roleplaying game.. it uses Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition as the basis for the rules and Dark Sun from 2nd ed as the basis for the background info..

Oct 29, 2008 10:26:01 Didrik, are you even paying attention to where you have wondered into?

"Wizards of the Coast" mean anything to you?

Here let me help. Up at the top of the web page there is a black bar going across the entire thing, under the word Games is the wording "Dungeons & Dragons" with the the sword between them. That should give you a little hint as to what's going on!

Oct 30, 2008 0:56:27 I have tried to search for the game,
but it was origally TEN that maked the game, and you had to post to them, then they would send you a "game copy" of DS crimson sands.

But now I have tried many times and found out, that because of some messed thing, TEN dont use their servers any more for DS crimson sands.

Im only interesset in DS to PC.
And played DS shattered lands and The wake of the ravanger.

So and Online PC DS game would be perfekt.

Does any have a clue how to get the online game ??

Some people are trying to get it going again. G.L. to them all.
