Excellent series...with one big problem.
First off, I love this series. The colorful dos graphics, the interface, the story lines; which gets better as the series progresses and just the overall nostalgia feel over it. I am a huge fan of AD&D (especially old school first edition) and these games were ahead of it's time. I have only one complaint, and unfortunately it encompasses a meaty aspect of the game. It's the combat. You have your party in the front, where you need to right click on their weapons to hit creatures, then you have your party in the rear, who can only use spells or ranged weapons. This is a small annoyance, but the biggie is that the game tends to freeze constantly when selecting to attack or in between selecting to attack. I am sure this is a design of the game providing turns for everyone in the battle. As realistic or true to paper and pen version of AD&D this is, it can be disconcerting against high level creatures. Especially with mages and clerics, when you are trying to look for an effective spell through your spell book, then when you find it, it's time for the front party to attack or you can quickly select the spell to cast, then :*FREEZE* then right click on your fighter's weapon to attack *FREEZE* then right click on the other front player to attack, *FREEZE*. This can work with low level goblins. But Death Knights?...not so much. What I feel the game needed was a pause button during combat, so you can choose what everyone in the party will be doing that round and then unpause. I know it's a pretty old game, and I probably would have not had this complaint, when it was released. I'm sure modern rpgs have spoon fed me over the years. Overlooking this huge issue, it is a great set of games and made me feel like I was actually in the dungeon. I still would recommend these games to any fans of dungeon crawlers.
