Anyone remember that? A special developer area. Like an easter egg.

Um, yeah - I do (as I first mentioned above.) I also believe there's a Dave's Challenge in Deathknights of Krynn, if as Yoshimo would say "memory serves", but I'm a little sketchier on that one. I know I passed it on the c64 but never did quite beat the one on Pools of Darkness, which was much more insanely difficult. Its a reward for exploration more than anything, named after one of the head developers, David Shelley, a big name in the history of the series. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I was disappointed with Hillsfar also - remember getting it after Pool of Radiance and trying to transfer characters and deciding that it just wasn't worth it. The gladiatorial fights were fun for awhile, but for the most part it never really felt like part of the series. Mind you, you could argue that its picklocking in-game has had a rather unique influence upon other more modern cRPGs.
