    I just got the BARD'S TALE Trilogy for my PC, so I've been playing that. It came out when I was a kid, and saw it, but never owned it to play -
    so I'm making up for ALL these lost years. I believe it is on steam as well, as that's where I had first played it a few years ago.

    Never played Bards Tale, what's it like?

    I missed the early D&D games completely growing up, what do you like about them? I'll have to give them a shot.

    Simple and Original.. LOL
    These updated with newer graphics make them much easier on the eye to play as well.

    To which Darklord replies...

    I absolutely love "The Bard's Tale" on the Atari ST. The graphics and
    story were great for the time and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's just
    really unfortunate that no further releases in the series made it to the
    ST line...
