You are the leader of this ragtag group of freedom fighters. Luckily you have a Bard with you to sing your glories, if you survive. For this is the stuff of legends. And so the story begins...* [52]* [135]* [129]* [21]* [76]* [22]* [52]* [52]

Using four player characters created in the "Prison" (or importing the player's champions from Dungeon Master), the player will have to face Lord Chaos again with a challenge: to destroy four pieces of corbum ore before it shatters the universe. The game comes with a utility disk that allows for the modification of the characters by editing their portraits and names, and provides hints if the player becomes stuck in the game.* [181]* [97]* [103]* [24]* [7]* [23]* [33]* [17]* [49]* [83]* [106]* [102]* [52]* [37]***Long awaited follow-up to Dungeon Master. Can use its game files. You don't need "Dungeon Master" to run this game (though the box says so!) but you will need every bit of experience from it because this "sequel" is damn difficult. The Amiga and Atari ST versions have different intros by the way!

Eye of the Beholder	SSI;U.S. Gold (Westwood Associates)	1991
The Bard's Tale III: Thief of Fate	Electronic Arts (Interplay)	1991	When the Bard's scared sober, trust a thief ...like me. When the Bard's Tale began, we lived a charmed life. Good ale. Good song. Good company. Mangar came along, but we cut him to pieces before he could blink. Soon the world got bigger. We wandered the wilderness for months to find the pieces of that infernal Destiny Wand. But once we reforged it, Lagoth Zanta was history. But then, being a thief was dull. Pick this lock. Disarm that trap. When things got hot, they'd tell me "Into the shadows, wimp." I should've lifted their gold and split long ago. But it's too late now. We battle through the seven worlds. Cast Warstrike and Rimefang over and over. Cut down the endless Hookfangs and Slathbeasts. And suddenly, The Archmage is powerless. The Warrior is weak. The Bard can't play. Now they say I'm the only hope. I'm slick. I'm sneaky. And I'm going to fight the Mad God... alone. Some fate.* [7]* [76]* [23]* [97]* [102]* [52]* [37]*The Bards Tale 2 Thief of Fate is the best game ever created. It features a hell of a lot of problem solving that taxes even the most experience gamers to the limit. I have been playing this game on and off for 10 years and have still not completed it. It is a work of art. It beats anything currently on the market and in my opinion if the next gen consoles were to bring this game out they would make a packet. I believe that this game is perfection. If you are an RPG/Fantasy fan go online buy an Amiga and play this game, simply put it is undoubtedly one of the best games ever made. I LOVE IT [Gogs]

BloodFest	Mellow Chips	1995	BloodFest is a first-person "dungeon crawler" style of RPG, with a sci-fi setting: you are on a spaceship in deep space, investigating after something went very wrong during an experiment in using wormholes for interstellar travel. The visual style of the game resembles first-person shooters, especially Doom, but you control the game with a mouse cursor instead of direct controls. There is an action bar at the bottom of the screen that includes a weapon selector, an "attack" button to use the selected weapon, six arrow buttons for moving and turning, a visual display of the protagonist's face, and a text line for describing objects you are looking at.
