The original Neverwinter Nights campaign: Find yourself at the center of intrigue, betrayal, and dark magic in Neverwinter Nights. Journey through dangerous cities, monster filled dungeons and deep into uncharted wilderness in search of the cure for a cursed plague ravaging the city of Neverwinter.
This precursor of BioWare's Neverwinter Nights was an online rpg that was running on AOL for most of the nineties. It uses the same engine as the popular goldbox AD&D games by SSI, and all the usual features are there. If you have played any of the other goldbox games, this one holds no surprises.
While this offline version has all the areas and features of the online game, the unfortunate fact that one cannot save the character makes playing it somewhat pointless. There is some entertainment to be found from just exploring the game area and slaying some monsters, but in the end I can only recommend it for those who want to complete their collection of goldbox AD&D games.

This was one of the most popular game on AOL, and probably most profitable. But they were too greedy and overcharged (by the hour, no less.) Eventually people found better games that cost much less.
Not to mention the rise of the genre of FPS that eventually became the new rage of online gaming; then modern MMOs like UO and EQ, which provided much better cost-per-hour (or per month) value. Mark 2013-10-22 -3 points DOS version Bioware neverwinter nights that means the newer one is at this point abandonware as well, the online player base is failing and the last patch for the game '1.69' removes the CD DVD protection as well its no longer supported by anyone 'game spy / Bioware' and any CDkey will work offline or on, we need the player base so any and all are welcome. Game is 14 years old at this point with no support and if that doesn't make it abandonware i don't know what douse. As well nwn is one of the feu action rpg games online that allows full on no rules pvp, most RPG games don't allow it but some nwn server do that are listed under action.
