Eye of the Beholder on SNES is one of those classic dungeon crawlers that feels like a proper tabletop D&D session—if your DM had a thing for dark, claustrophobic sewers. You start with a party of four (or roll your own if you're feeling brave), and right away, Waterdeep's nobles dump you into the grimy undercity to deal with... whatever's down there. Spoiler: It's not just rats.

The grid-based movement takes some getting used to if you're more used to action RPGs, but there's something satisfying about mapping out each corridor as you go. And yeah, you'll want graph paper—this isn't the kind of game that holds your hand. Combat's turn-based, so you've got time to agonize over whether to swing your sword or risk a spell. Just don't expect flashy SNES visuals; it's all about the atmosphere and that old-school "oh god, what's around the corner" tension.

If you dig methodical, punishing RPGs where every torch counts, this one's a time capsule worth cracking open.
