Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Pool of Radiance (Cartridge Only)

Prepare yourself for the first AD&D computer fantasy role-playing game set in the magical world known as the FORGOTTEN REALMS. Located on the northern shore of the Moonsea in the Forgotten Realms, the fabled city of Phlan had been overrun by monsters led by a mysterious lead. Your quest: discover the identity of this evil force and rid Phlan of its scourge.

Pool of Radiance represents the first in a line of software created by SSI in collaboration with TSR the producers of the legendary ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS® fantasy role-playing system.
It adheres faithfully to AD&D® game standards. The monsters, items, and spells used are from the famous AD&D Monster Manuals, Dungeon Masters Guide and Players Handbook. Roll up your characters from four classes, six races and nine alignments in classic AD&D fashion; or use the party already provided.

The computer graphics are strictly state-of-the-art. Each character comes with a portrait display; every monster type is individually drawn. Cities, dungeons and encounters are shown in realistic 3D perspective. Swinging swords, flying arrows and fireballs are all part of the interactive Tactical Combat display. Personalize your heroes' combat figures with individual weapons, armor and colors.

Add NPCs (computer-controlled Non-Player Characters) to your party of up to 6 PCs (Player Characters) to fill out your 8-character party. Control your PCs during battle, or let the computer control some or all of the action.

To help your party on its many difficult missions, the Adventurer's Journal guides you with history, maps, clues and rumors. A Translation Wheel converts Elvish and Dwarvish writing to English.

POOL OF RADIANCE. The ultimate breakthrough in fantasy role-playing computer games.
