Show Notes

Join me on a trip back to the 80s and the dawn of Windows, as we discuss one of the earliest Windows 3.1 rogue-like dungeon crawlers, Castle of the Winds!  Learn how the game was made, discover why it acted as a gateway to the more complex dungeon crawling experiences of later years, and listen in as we discuss whether it's still worth your time to grab your sword and slash monsters repeatedly in a number of procedurally generated dungeons, even today.
