high voltage Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Wikipedia says Pools of Darkness was on C64 as well, but I don't think so. GB64 doesn't mention it either.

+bennybingo Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 IIRC, the C64 had Pool of Radiance, not Pools of Darkness. I don't remember that one ever making its' way to the c64.

number six Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) Pools of Darkness was never released for the C=64. SSI stopped supporting the C=64 before the last few games came out. The C=64 also never got Dark Queen of Krynn which really slagged me off at the time because I had my Death Knights party maxed out sitting on a disk ready to go Edit I updated the Wiki Edited May 19, 2013 by number six 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/212450-pools-of-darkness-on-c64/#findComment-2756264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Pools of Darkness, Dark Queen of Krynn, Treasures of the Savage Frontier, and Matrix Cubed never came out on the C-64. Back in the day I had an Apple II so I only got Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, and Champions of Krynn (which amazingly is two more than the Atari ST got). Curse for the Apple was almost impossible to find, I looked for that everywhere back then but only recently got it.

cimerians Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I recall a bug in Dark Queen which prevented me from finishing the game. Can't remember what it was...I was upset because I finished Champions and Death Knights and never completed the 'trilogy'.

Tempest Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I plan on playing through them all on my Amiga, as it was the only system other than the PC to get all the games (well not Matrix Cubed, but I don't care about that one).

Great Hierophant Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 A bit of a slap in the face in that the Commodore 64, for which the Gold Box engine was originally developed, never got a complete campaign.
