u can get the whole old ass add&d goldbox classics for $10 on humble bundle rn. do these games hold up well today? well, frankly. no, but in addition to the goldboxers note that this bundle also includes the perennially spammed darksun games, ravenloft, spelljammer, and a buncha other shit too.

Reminder that you can pirate all these abandonware games for free and use Goldbox Commander if you are a baby, rather than giving SNEG, a slavic IP vulture and money launderer, any cash.

>>3811707
SNEG more like SNOTGETTINGSHIT.

>>3811707
Charity is a scam, dumbass.

The gold box games don't hold up in that you'll immediately understand how to control and play them like you could with say Might and Magic 3

But they hold up in that they're interesting

for me the main thing that makes them age poorly is that fucking pixelated gothic font. in 1993 it looked fine, but today that is a chore to read. ultima 7 has the same issue. maybe if i play enough i'll get used to it again.

>>3812057
no, u know what it is? it's that's all the text in the game IS IN ALL CAPS that's actually the problem, the gothic ass font doesn't help tho

reading that screen tho makes me wonder, was pool of radiance about gentrification and i was too young to realize it? after u kill all the kobolds and goblins, are they gonna rehab the buildings and turn them into luxury condos?

>>3812057
Damn, you got significantly dumber if that's a chore to read. It's perfectly legible.

Stop being dense. The monsters are invaders, this is a reclamation against invaders.
