Reviews

Game

Pool of Radiance is quite large in scope for early RPGs, and does a good job of translating the rules of AD&D into a videogame. For some reason the team that ported the game to the NES thought that a brown background would look good for most of the game. Luckily, the music department upped the ante and made much better music. Your team of adventurers must clear the city of Phlan from monsters and then search for the legendary Pool of Radiance. Combat is turn-based, offering you plenty of time to plan ahead, but there is an unfortunately large amount of combat. There is also a rather small amount of gold early in the game which makes equipment and leveling up a bit slow. All-in-all, the game offers many hours of adequate adventure.

Music

Pool of Radiance has a lot of music and Seiji Toda did a good job composing them. None of the music is very memorable, but the music is quite fitting to each section of the game.

Ripping

Ripping NES music is a very arduous process that is beyond the scope of this site.
