Customer Reviews of Gamefest: Forgotten Realms
Does not include access codes After installing one game, I tried to play it. It says to use the code wheel to decipher the access code for the game. No code wheel was included, so the game is permanently locked. <

Quite a deal
I saw this game for $5 in the store and bought it without a second thought. For 14 games, you are paying about 35 cents per game. I owned an original copy of _Eye_of_the_Beholder_ way back when, and found a catalog from 1991 in the box. The catalog contained 5 of the games on this disk, each selling for $50. It's almost sad that games like these can depreciate in value so much -- but at the same time, it's one hell of a deal!

>I tried installing these on Linux, but the installer is a Windows program, and it was all fubar in wine... So I took the disk over to my Windows 95 computer, installed Eye of the Beholder, copied all the resulting files back over to Linux and ran the game in DOSBox. It worked beautifully! I didn't try, but I'm sure they will run just fine on Windows, too.

>I must complain about the manuals, though. They basically scanned the original manuals as PDFs. That's fine, although it's somewhat poor quality, but for some reason, they concatenated all 14 of the games' manuals into one huge 80MB PDF file. It therefore takes up a ton of room -- even if you are only playing one game at a time, you still have all the others' manuals on your HD -- and it's hard to find the game you want.

>Despite that, if you have played some of these games before, and would like to experience some nostalgia, you really can't go too wrong with 35 cents per game.
Forgotten Realms/Black Isle,Wizards Of The Sword Coast !!!!!
Regardless of the review stated above;how can you complain about anything when you`re getting 14 games for under [amount paid].I had no problem with any of the games.I`m running a DELL Pentium 3/600 MHZ and 256 RAM.I have a 32 bit Diamond Viper/Riva TNT Video Card.These specs are overkill for these games,but they are still enjoyable if you love RPG`s like I do.You can`t go wrong at this price.It`s worth every penny.
