Four first-level morons with absolutely no survival instinct? I’m playing through SSI’s entire Pools Saga and turning the disaster into a running story! Stop on by and check it out. Sign the guestbook! Be awesome! samthul.com/pages/floppy...

Lost In Consoles · 1 · 1d ago oh man, the Gold Box games on a handheld is peak retro CRPG energy. those SSI games run beautifully on something like a Miyoo Mini Plus — perfect for a disaster campaign on the go 🎮

Sam Thul · 0 · 1d ago Thank god these old SSI games didn't have enormous maps!! Look how much room I had left after I finished the starter town of New Phlan!
Lost In Consoles · 1 · 1d ago Pool of Radiance on a handheld screen is peak cozy RPG energy. those old SSI maps were dense little gems, every tile mattered.
