Hey guys. Threads like this always tend to make me happy with nostalgia, so hey, why not start one myself again...
What old-school dungeon crawl RPG stands out for you? Which one is your favourite? What do you like about it and how does it compare to others? This thread is about real RPGs in the meaning of RPG before Fallout, which basically means crawling through a dungeon with a party, solving puzzles, exploring worlds and increasing numbers.
Typical games like this are Might and Magic 1-9, Wizardry 1-8, Lands of Lore, Dungeon Master 1 & 2, Eye of the Beholder 1-3, Bard's Tale 1-3, Ishar I-II-III... basically pretty much all the "arrow RPGs" as I liked to call them as a kid, with an FPS view and square-grid based movement, including the Goldbox games, Dark Heart of Uukrul and Black Crypt.
