I'm lucky to have 3-4 friends who can still play games with them. I'm 30y old but still got the fever of this awesome game. IT RUNS PERFECTLY WITH 15000 CYCLES IN DOSBOX.Hi2all fans of that great game. SUMMARY: I REQUEST THE PATCHED VERSION TO BE ADDED TO THE DOWNLOADS. Unfortunately, seeing as the main data file for the whole game is different in the patched version, I can't see any way to provide just a small patch. I don't see any reason one can't just provide a download for the patched version, which should run smoothly after only unzipping.

What the patch essentially does is substitue the runtime-engine with an improved version, which never shipped with the actual game. bat to rebuild the eye.res into a 32-bit version. However, getting a hold of this version involved nearly arcane magics, including, yet not limited to digging up a weird, cached version of an old thread,, as well as carefully handpicking and downloading a bunch of files, and running an obscure. To my knowledge, it is also harmless and stable, but I can't really vouch for that. At least for me, it made the difference between it running unbearably choppy and almost perfectly smooth. running with the AESOP/32 instead of the AESOP/16 engine. I have the fanpatched version of this game i.e. I understand it wasn't developed by the orginal team, and boy does it show!!!!!ĮOB3 = An awful game trieing to cash in on name! Sound like the sort of thing that EA do to games today!

In conlusion, as far as I can assertain, this game is now worthy of the EOB series name. I killed a few ghosts, then got stuck in some endless hedgerow faiasco going round and round in circles. I used to run EOB1 and 2 on my 10mhz IBM 086!!!!!! I tried to cast a spell, and had to wait about 3 seconds for it to work. The game is slow to run, on a 475mhz AMD-K6. I sat and watched the download bar tick away, on my dial up connection, unzipped the game, loaded it.and what a disapointment!!!!

I played it once for a few hours about 12 years ago, and have longed to play it again. Now for a game which is probably close to 15 years old, I think the ability to shock it's players is fantastic.Īnyway, I saw that EOB3 was availible for download, and I jumped at the chance to finally play this game properly. I went down some stairs, and suddenly there were these characters in front of me who I did not recognise, I was slightly shocked. Somehow I managed to bypass the Drow encampment section completly the first time round. EOB1 and 2 are fantastic games, and I have reacently discoverd areas in EOB1 which I never saw when I played it originally.

This was 1992, that game took me over five years to complete, that was only after I read a guide on how to defeat Dran on the internet, whilst at college. Some months later I got EOB2, the first game I ever bought.

When I owed the game originally I got right to the end where you fight Xanathar, then somthing when wrong with my IBM 086 computer, and I couldn't play the game anymore, I was gutted, but got over it. Since then I long forgot about the EOB series, until recently, when I aquired a new new computer with internet capabilites, I searched out a download of EOB1, a game which I once owed, but never managed to complete.

I was a big fan of the EOB games in my youth, and played them quite a lot.
