When I was a kid, I didn't get the early Ultimas or Wizardry, because they were (originally) on the Apple II and I had a C-64. So my first dungeon crawler was basically Bard's Tale (though I had a prequel to Bard's Tale from Hesware whose name I can't remember. Maze Master? Something like that, from the creator of The Bard's Tale and came on a cartridge).
Anyway, I was a big fan of them, beating all three (second needed a hint book), and it looks like there is going to be a new one, hitting Kickstarter June 2nd.
Nice! I had a C64 too, but I didn't have the chance to play The Bard's Tale I until a few years ago (yeah, I still play with my old C64, how sad of me!). Let's see how this turns out--
