Might & Magic II. And then Pool of Radiance shortly thereafter. That started a run of playing some amazing cRPGs throughout the early to mid nineties.

Hope they enjoy their presents. The first computer role playing game I got was on Christmas '89. And lots of fond memories playing D&D this time of year.

Merry Christmas from Hearkenwold! Here is an animated gif showing the snow weather effect, just outside the Halls of Hamhock.

Again this exact content is currently present in the IceBlink version available for download. These screens are all taken from exploration of the dangerous Khrystos Caverns. http...

Yes, I like the way this adventure is shaping up. A good amount of optional content, and secrets for players to explore. The development process, working through various concepts, is also very interesting to read about. I look forward to seeing more as we get closer to the new year. Unless I'm mista...
