I used to love Dungeon Hack back in the day. Imagine how disappointing it is to have one's hopes raised but then to find that you can't even save a game.

Let's get down to brass tacks. you are paying roughly around $6.00 USD for two old DOS based games using DOSBox. These are older Dungeons and Dragons games and they tend to be harder than what people expect. With that being said, it is packaged in a very nice launcher that makes it very very easy for you to play these games. Anyone who has had to mess with DOSBox out of the box trying to get old games to run should …

Alright. The character creation for Menzoberranzn is god awful, the intro/hook quest is a slog. The adventure and combat--- forget all that. I'm going to tell you right now why YOU are going to spend the 1.99 discount sale price for this game. Attached to it, more importantly than the PC game is a FULL adventure book for the 1992 ADnD 2ed adventure of the same name. Story, stats, Drizzt and The Melinthors, a drow …

I cannot believe I never played this. It's a real gem and should be an instant buy for any dungeon crawler fan. I was wishing it had more atmospheric music/sounds. I solved this by streaming some Soundscape & Ambience tracks. It made it all the more tense. I kinda wish the maps weren't so much "fill the paper" design. It has a few rough QoL issues, like using the keypad with numlock off and not having other hot keys …

I bought this specifically for Dungeon Hack although I played Menzoberranzen back in the 90's and that was a very good game too. Menzoberranzen, like the Ravenloft games I purchased in another package, seems to be a bit cumbersome when in combat although I can't tell if that's because of the emulator. It might be that's how it actually was and I'm not used to the controls yet. Dungeon Hack is perfect. I'm very happy …

The ruleset vibes with me more than 5E. Thinking of setting the one-shot (and possibly more) in the Forgotten Realms. Feels like the right setting to hook new players.

neutral · AI labelView post →I wouldn't even say that BG3 is a soul transplant. It was a good game set in the Forgotten Realms. But there was nothing about it that made it a sequel to Baldur's Gate 1 or 2. It didn't relate to the story, didn't cover the same themes, didn't use the same version of D&D, didn't play the same.

neutral · AI labelView post →The game actually is quite fun when you're not actually playing it but rather interacting with NPCs and watching cutscenes. Jokes aside though, I can't say I've got much of an experience with DOSBOX RPGs apart from a brief introduction to The Elder Scrolls Daggerfall quite some time ago. Which is why this game and the controls were incredibly confusing to me as I am not used to these kind of mechanics. The sole reason I wanted to give it a go, however, was to explore the Forgotten Realms lore…

Of the Forgotten Realms: the Archives this is my least favourite, and the least cohesive, but it also has a different approach to many features, giving it an appeal that the others lack. These games play through DOSBOX and as they are from the first half of…
