Eye of the Beholder III: Assault on Myth Drannor

About

Eye of the Beholder III: Assault on Myth Drannor is a first-person dungeon crawler built on Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition rules. You navigate a 3D world as a party of adventurers, moving through forests, opening doors, and scavenging loot while enemies approach from all angles. Combat mixes melee attacks, spellcasting, and ranged weapons with positional depth, front-row fighters swing swords while backliners hurl fireballs or arrows. The game emphasizes environmental interaction, letting you manipulate objects and trigger traps in real time without pausing. Launched in 1993, this title was among the first RPGs to use full 3D environments, making it a technical standout for its era. Though its graphics feel dated by modern standards, the tactical layering of combat and immersion through first-person perspective remain compelling. With ports to modern systems, it offers a chance to play a precursor to today’s 3D CRPGs. The single-player campaign unfolds across the Myth Drannor region, blending dungeon exploration with story-driven objectives.
