711.0. "The Bard's Tale" by MCIS2::DEW () Fri Jan 03 1992 16:10

    Does anyone out thier have this game?? It's a RPG much like Dragon
    Warrior in the battle, but you move by using an overhead view and
    seeing 3 spaces in front of you.  It is very hard  and I'd give it two
    thumbs up.

711.1Have the PC game...BROKE::HARRISThu Jan 23 1992 15:112
    I have this game for the PC,  but the instruction manual is very 
    complicated,  is the Nintendo's complicated?
711.2MCIS2::DEWSat Feb 08 1992 19:433
    not really but it is very hard because in the manual they show a
    character (knight) but I have not figured out how to get him
    
711.3Cheep conversionHOTWTR::WALKER_ROMon Feb 10 1992 18:0413
    This was a cheep conversion.  There is no outerworld.  Just one town
    and a few towers/cellers.  The game still lets you roll your characters
    but the play is simple time consuming.  It is mainly map a maze until
    your character gets strong enough to beat the boss at the bottom/top
    and then move on to the next place.  Only a few of the magic spells
    work on the monsters by the time you have enough MP to uses them so
    each battle begins to seem the same, hack, slash, use one of three
    spells.
    
    If you like mapping on graph paper this game can keep you occupied for
    many hours.
