Akalabeth is still a basic game, the ancestor of modern RPG games. It's a great throwback game to have fun with for a little while. Just not the one from GOG. I don't know what they did to their version of it, but it's buggy. You often will end up with one of two errors that stop you from being able to complete the game: 1) You receive a quest from Lord British to kill a(N). It doesn't state the monster to defeat, so you cannot actually defeat anything to progress. Even if you kill every monster on every level of a dungeon, you physically can't progress. Start over. 2) You receive a quest from Lord British and kill the quest baddy. When you return to Lord British, he then says "Go now and complete they quest!". Even if you go back and kill a dozen of your quest monster in a dozen dungeons, you cannot progress. Start over. Outside of those two game breaking bugs, it's a fun game. Play the original or a different version from somewhere else, though.
