Original Games don’t seem to work

I purchased this game for nostalgia purposes to play the original I played as a kid. The Bard’s Tale 3 appears to get stuck once I put the character disk in and it asks me if I want to continue with my saved game. I have chosen both yes and no, and nothing happens. Maybe, I am doing something wrong. Can anybody help? I would hate to request my money back, but I could use help with this.

cut scenes…

can’t get past the rat cut scene, super frustrating, basically makes the new game worthless.

Excellent Game.

Love this game. It’s a streamlined RPG. You won’t really have to deal with selling a bunch of loot or min/maxing your character. The gameplay is pretty straight forward. The graphics are pretty decent, except for the cutscenes. As far as I know, all of the bugs that are mentioned in other reviews have been fixed. I haven’t had any issues with the game. I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a simple fun adventure rpg.

Too buggy to play

Couldn’t even see the conversation options from the very beginning. Unplayable.

Definitely worth more than $6

The storyline is great, the sing alongs are are so funny, just and overall enjoyable game to play. I’ve had the game for over two years and I’m playing for the forth time and still have fun playing and discovering things I have missed previously.
