What is Erwin's Realm?
Erwin is a small community of gamers who are into old crappy games. We enjoy those leading edge games from the ninties with those big pixels and little round shadows that will blow your mind. We're just a group of friends, and when we're not off being corporate slaves we enjoy sitting back and playing the classics. It all started with an ageing heap of scrap metal hosting a lonely QuakeWorld Teamfortress server. Now Erwin has blossomed into the improved ageing piece of scrap that you know and love today.
What is the objective of Erwin's Realm?
The main purpose of this site is to try and get enough users to sustain a fully populated community of classic gamers. With the world aiming more towards touch and motion technologies in the gaming industry we are here to try and hang onto the gaming genres that are becoming a thing of the past. We are here to support gamers who are into playing games because they are fun, not to unlock achievements or gain levels. Because in the gaming world it's the journey not the destination. If it was the other way around it would be called work.

Another great feature of the site is the forum. From the forums you can start topics about your favorite games or request games you'd like to see hosted on Erwin's Realm.
