Lands of Lore

Lands of Lore is one of the last classic type of FP RPGs and one of the lightest when considering game rules / interface. The game is extremely polished and could be considered as a culmination of the sub-genre. At about this time the step-by-step mechanism was being overtaken by free movement system of games such as Ultima Underworld and System Shock.

I was a bit ambitious to start on maximum difficulty so I soon switched back to normal. I didn't use any projectile weapons for increasing rogue level. Later on I realized there were few chests I couldn't open because of poor rogue level. I skipped few non-important areas and long grind bonuses on purpose.

I did one section out of the screen. I went back to White Tower entrance to get back emerald blades before the dungeon level, because I hadn't realized before I might still have use for those. Then again, I could've easily managed without the blades. Meanwhile I also rearranged my inventory and dropped lots of items such as all healing potions I had been carrying around up until this point.

I included all morph forms of the last boss in the end after the end credits. She can't be beaten if she has time to change shape before the 'whole truth' is used.
