New Bard's Tale construction set is also epic. I remember a game I bought called The Devil's Whiskey that was supposed to be a throwback to that. but it required some really old python and I couldn't seem to get it to work right. I should try again.
Devil's Whiskey is a really good game. You may need one of the patches that came out, after it's release. Dulsi, the coder for BTBuilder, was one of the coders for Devil's Whiskey.
