Ahh, Spiderweb Software, Oldschool RPG in the truest sense.

I really love their games, they're so unique and the plots are really deep. Not to mention that the worlds are big and explorable and have an unique atmosphere.
Does anyone else here actually know of Spiderweb Software? If so, what games do you like most? If not, which games (if any at all) look appealing to you?
Personally I like the Geneforge series the most, you can shape followers who will stay by your side until they die and become stronger in the long run. Also the plot is very moral and you have much choice in who you want to help or who you want to kill.
At the moment I'm playing Nethergate: Resurrection, it's a bit less advanced but fun nonetheless!
My only complaint about their games is that they're hard to get by, so I find myself in a position where I can't play the games unless I pirate them..

Avernum: Very oldschool, you have a party of characters and you are banished to the/an underworld where you have to escape, further games in this series revolve around other people but its all in the same underworld.
Geneforge: There are shapers who can create living beings and plants and can shape entire worlds. You are one of them and you get confronted with moral choices and the like of whether or not its okay to treat your creatures like shit. Very cool series!
Nethergate Resurrection: Single game (not part of series) You are either a Roman or Celtic party and you have to respectively stop or save the magic of the druids. Is very different from the other games story wise but the interface is the same as Avernum games.
