Legends of Murder Vol 2: Grey Haven (1991) by James Schmalz was a CRPG for DOS PCs. While not a direct sequel to the first game, it was once more set in the same world where you, as a famous Inspector, are confronted with a new, deadly case at a prestigious school! (a battle detective thread)

Legacy gave players a top-down screen and a HUGE block in the center to display quest-important stuff found along the way. NPCs weren't clearly marked - you kind of had to wander until you "found" their invisible pixels. Same with items using the search command to scour areas for clues and items.

The interface was icon driven and your status was also displayed with descriptive text instead of crunchy digits. You moved around using the top-down map in the upper right and the left window gave a graphic view of the area. Big icons for what you can do were shown below that window.

Mighty Final Fight (1993) | beat 'em up | NES | Capcom Capcom's hit beat 'em up from 1989, Final Fight, punched its way into an unexpected, chibi-sized weight class on the NES! Like its arcade roots, players could kick, punch, and suplex their way through Metro City, now with RPG-like leveling.

Encounters were more in your face in this chapter, but unlike the first game, it came with a text file filled with hints on how to solve it (if not how to survive some of the more crushing surprises!) continuing to stand out as a murder mystery series that also spoke RPG.

Amulets & Armor (1997) | action RPG | PC platforms | United Software Artists and Exiguus Entertainment Envisioned as an MMO for BBSes, it later shifted to a single player experience. But Issues limited its run to only 100 copies, revived years later as a free download by one of its programmers!

Legends was fairly obscure like a lot of Softdisk's diskmag games but it was a unique take on the CRPG formula with its murder mystery blend. At the end, you didn't necessarily need insane levels or bleeding edge gear and spells, just an itch for pixel hunting and puzzle solving.

Great Greed often felt aimed at welcoming first-time adventurers with easy-to-learn RPG mechanics, automatic and manual saves, and there was even a light walkthrough in the manual. A friendly, portable, otherworldly quest with a recipe for an adventure with multiple toppings, er, endings!

Dragon Scroll - Yomigaerishi Maryuu (1987) | action RPG | Nintendo Famicom | Konami The adventure cast you as the Gold Dragon, given human form by a god, who must recover eight magic books taken by thieves! Little did they know that by stealing the books, they had also awakened a terrible evil...

It was published by Softdisk as part of their "disk magazine" offering which was popular back in the 80s and early 90s. Even John Carmack of id fame would publish a few of his RPGs through it at one point before introducing everyone to Blazkowicz' Nazi-stomping action and multi-story cyberdemons.

In states like Alabama and Tennessee, Trump and his cronies are rigging congressional maps to silence minority voters. This fight isn’t about party—it’s about right versus wrong. We must reject partisan gerrymandering, demand fair maps, and secure equal representation for every American.

The brown treesnake has no predators, a voracious appetite for birds/eggs & populations exploded to 2 million. Today, there are 10 times as many snakes as people on Guam. Thomas Seibert captured this video of their ability to climb nest boxes designed to be snake-proof, by looping their body.
