there is a complete fan remake of LEGO Rock Raiders (PC) and it goes so hard. this shit feels polished and updooted without losing the goofy budget pc game charm. this shit has character customization, and by that i mean you can make your entire 25-person crew a buncha completely unique custom Guys of your design, and then go and make even more Guys to fill out another crew, and then maybe even another if you're feeling particularly mad with power. this shit has multiple campaigns to keep you occupied for lots of time to come. this shit lets you have probably all the old lego game soundtrack options you'd want. PLEASE check out Manic Miners for some real-time-strategic base-carving high adventure deep underground

Holy shit. I always wanted Rock Raiders sets as a kid but never got any, and always thought the game looked cool. Maybe this is my chance.
Oh my gawd. I didn't know that anybody else even knew this game existed. I was obsessed with it when I was a kid x3
Is there a risk that some copyright holder would go Nintendo and try to crack down on it?
not a chance - original developers Data Design Interactive folded years ago, and LEGO tend to be very lax about fan works (and Rock Raiders is a somewhat niche theme that hasn't been in production for decades)
It is SO good this scratched the "i want to play something nostalgic" itch so fricking well. They even have a discord that's active with a bunch of fanmade levels if the campaigns are somehow not enough for ya!
