Return to Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle are classic Macintosh games from the 80s, and they're getting a bundled definitive edition re-release on Steam. Coming from Ludit Holdings, a studio founded by Mark Stephen Pierce, co-creator of the original Dark Castle series.

From the Steam page:

Return to Dark Castle revives the legendary Macintosh series that defined precision platforming and comic peril.

This definitive edition includes the complete Dark Castle (1986) and Beyond Dark Castle (1987) adventures — rebuilt with color visuals, remastered audio, original music and refined controls — plus 50 all-new rooms created exclusively for this release.

Step into the boots of a new hero on a quest to defeat the Black Knight and reclaim the castle’s secrets. Expect classic challenge, slapstick misfortune, and finely tuned puzzle-platforming that rewards skill and patience.

Features

  • All original Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle levels, fully remastered.
  • 50 brand-new rooms designed by Z Sculpt.
  • Gamepad and keyboard support on all platforms.
  • Save, replay, and share your best runs.
  • Built-in homage to the series’ 1980s roots.
