D&D: Shadows over Mystra.

[Andhaira]

I had some free time at work today (basically the entire day free). One of my coworkers has a huge collection of games (ROMS) on his computer which I borrowed. Among the games I discovered a gem, Dungeons and Dragons Shadows over Mystra. I had never heard of this puppy before and was pleasantly surprised. Its an arcade game like Final Fight except with D&D characters. You have numerous classes to choose from. I chosse the magic user, and he was a ton of fun. Lots of spells, with great special effects.

I recommend this game if you have some time to kill. Best to play with a buddy.

You should play Dungeon Fighter Andhaira. It's like that game, except a MMORPG with leveling and equipment. I'm sure you'd get along just fine with all the 11 year-old Chinese and Korean kids.

It's a pretty fun game. But a bit annoying if you're on multiplayer with wizards because of the constant pausing everytime they use the strong spells.

Is there any easy way to play this game without using a ROM emulator? Because I imagine it would be a pain in the ass to set it up for multiple controllers on a PC (never mind two or more people sharing a keyboard).

You go into the options and set the keys.

And you can play it through the internet too.

Are you referring to the networking capabilities of MAME, or is there something else I need to know about? Don't hold out on me bro!

I used Final Burn Alpha emulator, and it had this Kaillera client that allows you to play online, nothing too fancy.
