Story:Castle of the Winds is a two part graphical adventure game, loosely based on fantasy role playing games, and drawing much inspiration from Norse mythology. Part one concerns the character's efforts to avenge the deaths of his or her godparents, who were foully murdered by unknown agents. Along the way, you will do battle with evil monsters, brave deadly traps, and collect the money and magical treasures guarded by dangerous foes. As the story unfolds, the character will also learn of his or her mysterious past, and the legacy left by the character's long dead father.Show more

Oh man! I can picture the half torso man now weaving through randomly generated dungeons and collecting sweet sweet loot while running into a room full of monsters or attempting to rest and getting attacked. I think I owe my love of Diablo and DnD to Castle of the Winds
This is a super simple, but incredibly fun VERY early dungeon crawl. There's a bit of a story to get you going into the castle, and the non shareware part 2 actually had some more, but very few people probably ever experienced it. But this game was on a ton of game collection disks, and if you are of a certain (old) age, this will hit that nostalgia bell in your brain. Playing it now, you have to set your expectations to what this is: A top down view of a 2D dungeon, tiny icons of monsters without animation, collect the gear to get stronger, find the spells that make you god like, and hack your way through to the end.
Is this a game of the year candidate or an experience that will change your gaming life in 2025? No, absolutely not. But it's a much loved classic from decades ago, nearly impossible to play now without a ton of hoop jumping, and a snapshot of a moment in time. And really, isn't that why the whole preservation program exists? This game doesn't need a graphics overhaul, high res textures, a resolution change, or much work at all. It needs a launcher for a Win3.11 environment and easy way to play. Please consider helping bring back games from a time before there were millions of players with nostalgia that would vote for it to come back.
Oh man... I could never get enough of "You crushed the Goblin's spine into useless pulp." That and trying to see how long I could scam the store keeper into buying cursed items.
What a fantastic old game.
