  1. Who's the dude on the bottom row, between Tasslehoff and Flint? Riverwind? Gilthanas or something?

  2. Riverwind. Also I think that's supposed to be Tanis on the far right, not Flint.

  3. No, Tanis is on the far left. #notallbeards

  4. Paul V. you're right. I was seeing Flint's helmet as being big poofy hair so I thought it had to be Tanis, because no way Flint had that much hair.

    OH GOD WHY AM I THINKING ABOUT THIS

  5. You could use any character you wanted, but if you used Goldmoon before you got to the dragon, you had no way to win. Her throwing the crystal staff was the only way to kill the dragon. Nothing told you that, of course.

  6. How much allowance did I save up to buy this? Probably the first terrible game I paid money for.

  7. I'm sorry you guys weren't old-school enough to handle the Dragonlance megadungeon experience. #TougherThanTombofHorrors

  10. I have that game, right now. I paid cash money so I could play it on my Sega MS. It really does suck. It makes Miracle Warriors seem state of the art.

  11. It was a sort of test, to see if I could play Euro games on an American console. There were conflicting views online. The verdict is yes, but the refresh rates are different on PAL, and NTSC systems, so I believe, if I recall correctly, the Euro games play slower on American systems. Didn't help though.

    It reminded me of how we used to play, when I was a kid, and DMs thought it was their job to kill all the characters, except their best friend's.

  12. I played the shit out of this back in the day. I also totally forgot about

  13. I did beat it. By accident I think. As in, I happened to be playing Goldmoon and attacking meant she threw the staff.

    Then I tried to beat it with other characters later but couldn't.
