One of the best RPGs ever made, Betrayal at Krondor is a classic example of games that get rave reviews yet do poorly in stores (at least until it was re-released on CD-ROM).
Flat "paper-doll" digitized graphics is just about the only criticism you can level at this classic, which features an excellent plot written by best-selling fantasy author Raymond Feist (who also had considerable input in the design process), memorable characters, cool spellcasting interface, and an abundance of optional sub-quests and riddle chests. Sierra made the game freeware in 1997 to promote their own sequel Betrayal at Antara (which, without Feist' s input, is a pale shadow of its predecessor). Suffice to say that noone can claim to be an old-time RPGer if they have never set foot in Krondor :)
Note: Although the CD version is for sale for only $5 at E CD-ROM shop, it is the cut-down, "Sierra Classic" version that includes neither the interview with Raymond Feist nor the CD music. It also includes no manual :/ You are therefore advised to either go buy it somewhere else, or download our near-complete CD rip below.

for fans of this, try out Drakkhen. it is not a horrible game (as some say) but very cryptic and half baked in moments.
However, if you have the patience, it is VERY rewarding.

Raymond e feist is a legend
Hi do I install this?
I was never a big fan of this series, they were OK, just over-rated and over-hyped. That said, worth playing if your a fan of story driven CRPGs.
One of the greatest role-playing games ever designed.

Oh, wow. I'm excited just looking at the screencaps! I grew up on Betrayal In Antara and have long been curious to play its forerunner. Here's hoping the files run okay. Thank you for uploading this!
You are thinking of BETRAYAL IN ANTARA.
