Castle of the Winds. A Rogue-like game for Windows 3.1 (but works perfectly fine in XP) that was once shareware, but released years later as freeware

OMG!! what a game!!

I only ever got to play the first bit, once i got to the second town i would goto the castle where there was only one level and then the guy refused to leave the town, is that just because it was the demo..

Thanks for the link you are now my favourite person, i'd half forgotten about that game, its basic but pretty damn entertaining!

I thought the whole weight to movement speed was a funky addition...
