Can you guess this old game from just one screenshot?
I’ll update this post with the answer at 5pm today if no one has guessed before then. Or if you do guess it before then, feel free to share your memories of a classic game.
at first i thought bardstale, but i reckon might be hillsfar, i vaguely remember using a horse for travel! doesn’t look like my c64, so might be another platform like spectrum (which i never owned)
i remember playing bards tale (3?) without the anti-piracy code wheel. i just kept racking up experience not caring that i couldn’t access the locked levels to finish the game..

Looks like the city navigation view for one of the official D&D games by SSI – probably the C64 version of Pool of Radiance.

Can’t say I know the game, but I’d guess that it’s a D&D game of some sort. Moby is a surprisingly well-balanced fighter.
Ding!

Gee the proto-RPGs of that era loooooooved the corner-box showing the player POV of the wall in front of them.
Not Swords & Serpents but does look pretty NES-y.

Hillsfar? I used to love that game. I sucked at it, but loved it nonetheless.

It looks to me like SSI’s Hillsfar which was the semi-sequal to Curse of the Azure Bonds.

It’s Hillsfar! I remember playing it on the old C64, it’s no Defender of the Crown though…

It’s Hillsfar set in Forgotten Realms.

I’ll say “Eye of the Beholder”. It’s definitely an old D&D game.
