So, Eye of the Beholder on SNES—this one’s a proper old-school dungeon crawl. You start with a party of four (fighter, cleric, mage, thief—classic setup) and get dumped into the sewers under Waterdeep after the ceiling caves in behind you. No turning back, just dark corridors, weird noises, and the occasional skeleton lunging at you in real-time combat.
The first-person grid movement feels clunky at first if you’re used to modern RPGs, but you get into the rhythm of it. Spells are limited per day, so you’ll hoard those magic missiles like gold. And the puzzles? Some are "oh, that’s clever," others are "why is this lever behind a fake wall?"—typical AD&D nonsense. The pixel art’s moody, though, and the music nails that eerie dungeon vibe.
Fair warning: save often. One wrong step into a pit trap and it’s back to your last save. Still, if you like your RPGs unforgiving and full of hidden doors, this one’s a time capsule worth dusting off.
