I still own the massive dungeon book that came with the CD-ROM. It has the maps of every floor and foes you'll find along the way.
One of my favorite parts of the entire dungeon crawl was the mysterious sibilant voice of a merchant, Preybelish, behind a door on one of the dungeon floors in the dwarven mine. A small slot in the door was used to speak and pass items/gold back and forth from. The room was shrouded in magical darkness so you couldn't see in. Later you have the opportunity to fight the merchant and low and behold it's a dark naga.
Even with the guide, that always struck me as the best part of D&D, the plot twist that the person you may be helping is in fact a bad guy. The "deal with the devil" so to speak can sometimes be very rewarding if your willing to pay the price later.
Anyways the CD-ROM no longer works on my current system. Please bring this to GOG.com. You already have Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate, Temple of Elemental Evil, Neverwinter Nights 2 and all the older games like Secret of the Silver Blades, Curse of the Azure Bonds and Pool of Radiance.
This is the ultimate dungeon crawl successor to those, though Neverwinter Nights 2 is actually the successor to this game being the first ever to implement the 3.5 edition.
What I am saying is, I already own all those via GoG.com. All but Pool of Radiance Ruins of Myth Drannor. Help me complete my collection.

The 5th installment of the Pool of Radiance series. Need I say more? You have the first four with the Forgotten Realms: The Archives Volume 2. Let's add the last chapter.
It was one of my first video games of this genre and I like it very much: good story and graphics, better than some newer games. I really hope I can play it again.
This game was just awesome I have great memories of it also it really helped me cope during a dark time of my life and it really helped me become a better Dungeon Master, I loved the game and I think everyone should experaence it's greatness, it was a great challenge because you had to think on how to use your party. I played this game with a few friends at the time we shared strories, pleae bring this to GOG.
I play p&p RPG since I was 12. Unfortunately in my small town I was one of the two GMs. He was better at describing events I was better at creating stories. After his death I was the only one so the only way for me to become a player and run through other's stories mysteries was to play video games (not counting convents). And Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor was one of the few I didn't play. As you revive old games maybe you would do the same for this one.
