Menzoberanzan to me was pure magic. Was little later, coming down from my Eye of the Beholder and Dark Sun high, new style Dungeon Crawl was just coming out.. Menzoberanzan! I really enjoyed the updated graphics, destroying enemies (hearing the way they scream and poof into green/purple clouds of smoke, was satisfying. The Ravenloft games also used the same engine. Those games are also excellent. Hopefully those are in the next pack. Those are a no-brainer buy, as is this and the eye of the beholder series just came out.
Eye of the Beholder 1 , 2 and 3 were the very first SSI games I played. Sort of kick myself for not playing the Pools of Radiance , etc . That's OK though, I now have an opportunity! Anyhow, Eye of the Beholder gripped me so hard. I loved the dungeon hack style along with the puzzles and methods you had to do to stay alive. There is no auto-map however if you venture long enough, the map is in your head. Not too incredibly difficult to memorize. The games hard core, and Eye of the beholder 1 boss is Hard Core. Eye of the beholder 2 really builds off of the greatness of 1. For me it's my favorite game out of the three. So many nights cracked out playing it omg. This was one of the wishes I had made for GOG to release these masterpieces. It has been granted! I hope to see Dark Sun: Shattered Lands and Wake of the Ravager next! Those games also are incredibly fun as well
