I still own the massive dungeon book that came with the CD-ROM. It has the maps of every floor and foes you'll find along the way.
One of my favorite parts of the entire dungeon crawl was the mysterious sibilant voice of a merchant, Preybelish, behind a door on one of the dungeon floors in the dwarven mine. A small slot in the door was used to speak and pass items/gold back and forth from. The room was shrouded in magical darkness so you couldn't see in. Later you have the opportunity to fight the merchant and low and behold it's a dark naga.
Even with the guide, that always struck me as the best part of D&D, the plot twist that the person you may be helping is in fact a bad guy. The "deal with the devil" so to speak can sometimes be very rewarding if your willing to pay the price later.
Anyways the CD-ROM no longer works on my current system. Please bring this to GOG.com. You already have Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate, Temple of Elemental Evil, Neverwinter Nights 2 and all the older games like Secret of the Silver Blades, Curse of the Azure Bonds and Pool of Radiance.
This is the ultimate dungeon crawl successor to those, though Neverwinter Nights 2 is actually the successor to this game being the first ever to implement the 3.5 edition.
What I am saying is, I already own all those via GoG.com. All but Pool of Radiance Ruins of Myth Drannor. Help me complete my collection.
It was one of my first video games of this genre and I like it very much: good story and graphics, better than some newer games. I really hope I can play it again.

what more can I say, it is a dungeons and dragons game. using their character development rules at the time of release. graphics, story, and paly were all good then and should still be good today.
This game was just awesome I have great memories of it also it really helped me cope during a dark time of my life and it really helped me become a better Dungeon Master, I loved the game and I think everyone should experaence it's greatness, it was a great challenge because you had to think on how to use your party. I played this game with a few friends at the time we shared strories, pleae bring this to GOG.
I play p&p RPG since I was 12. Unfortunately in my small town I was one of the two GMs. He was better at describing events I was better at creating stories. After his death I was the only one so the only way for me to become a player and run through other's stories mysteries was to play video games (not counting convents). And Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor was one of the few I didn't play. As you revive old games maybe you would do the same for this one.
Fable IIFable 2 is the second game in the fable series by Lionhead Studios, it is an open world role-playing game. It has a simple story line where the hero needs to save Albion from the evil Lord Lucian by collecting together the other three heroes to defeat him. Interactive cut-scenes are a large part of the game however the main character never speaks and all dialogue is uncontrolled.
The game features a large variety of game play and freedom, allowing a player to shape the world around and the characters appearance and moral standing based on decisions throughout the game. The player can also get married both same and opposite sex and bring up children to childhood but no farther, expressions are a lot more interactive with NPC's than beforeTrending Open world Action Fantasy

Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.Trending Open world

Scientists found indications for ancient egypt being far more technologized than we can imagine. Hourglass is set in a scenario in which those assumptions are actually true..
