The Bard’s Tale Trilogy 

 

I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming has the Xbox Game pass to get free games like the Bard’s Tale Trilogy. The Bard’s Tale Trilogy contains remastered versions of three classic video games. The three video games within The Bard’s Tale Trilogy are The Bard’s Tale Tales of the Unknown, The Bard’s Tale II The Destiny Knight, and The Bard’s Tale III Thief of Fate! These three games show their age, but not as bad as I thought they would. Plus they get better with each game.

When you start one of the three games within The Bard’s Tale Trilogy you are given a choice of Normal or Legacy Mode. The Legacy Modes are much more difficult. If you like a hardcore challenge then definitely try Legacy Mode. We can create characters, roll dice for their stats and have them join our party. As we progress in this first person dungeon crawler we run across enemies we can battle or run away from.

Battles can go badly very quickly in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy. This downloadable video game compilation contains violence, lack of attire, enticement to lust, false gods, alcohol, gambling, and more. As I played The Bard’s Tale Trilogy I kept thinking someone must have liked this kind of game back in the day for at least three of them to be made. I do know there is a fourth game in this franchise.

The music is pretty good in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy. I love being able to have a bard as a character in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy. Although they can be difficult to keep alive early on. There are so many classes in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy that is made my head spin. The graphics look okay in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy. The graphics improve from one to two, and finally to three. The retro roots can be seen there as well.

If you like dungeon crawlers and learning how to play retro games then The Bard’s Tale Trilogy might be something for you. I realized after a few hours that The Bard’s Tale Trilogy is not the kind of game I am into. I prefer a little more direction on what to do and how to do it. I don’t like searching for how to heal my characters either. Historic gamers will be interested in The Bard’s Tale Trilogy.
