I was in 4th or 5th grade when my dad bought our first PC, and this was the first PC game I ever played. My dad brought it home from some kind of PC trade show in the 1985 or 86-time frame. I spent a lot of time playing this. First time I played a game where the character could be improved instead of just an action game. so my first RPG of all time.

I remember playing this game all the time as a kid on our family's Tandy 1000. The thing I probably remember best is that in the weapon selection, I would always misread "dagger" as "danger" so I would always pick that.

There's a patch for Cavequest that turns off the weight slowdown that occurs as you collect more and more gold. That's all it does, because the monsters in the cave are such pussies you don't need full stats to beat them. If i can find a link, I'll post it.
