Broken Roads already had my attention before getting delayed. I'll be giving this one a try. Post-apocalyptic is one of my favorite settings, and I'm also a fan of old-school isometric RPGs with turn-based combat.

Here in Peninsular India we dont have "spring" rather its a ridiculous heat wave sweeping us by and we really are waiting for the unseasonal rain to bring relief from heat in the meantime enjoying some old NES classics(finished playing adventure island today).
