For Auld Lang Syne! The Bard's Tale IV is funded!
These are always my favorite updates... we did it!
Nearly 30,000 of you have put your belief in us once more, and we are forever grateful. You've heard me wax poetic on the subject of crowdfunding enough, but truly we would not be able to make these games without your support every step of the way. Your social media love you have given over the course of the campaign has been invaluable, and your continued support will let us make The Bard's Tale IV bigger and better than ever.
But for now let's just enjoy the moment of reaching our goal!
The Bard is back!

Trying to remember the original party. Would love to see some reference or meet their descendants. I remember Brian the Fist, El Cid, Markus, Merlin(?). Anyone remember the rest?

SO happy! This was always my favorite computer RPG, above Apshai, Wizardry, or Ultima. I owned all three of the originals for my Apple II and played them to death.
MajorDeegan on June 15, 2015
Long live El Cid!!!
Roq on June 15, 2015
Great! - my favourite genre. A few years ago, before Kickstarter it looked like there might never be another.
Flavius Goicea on June 15, 2015
Also, you have to have lute songs that play during exploration/combat and give party buffs, etc. You HAVE to bring that back. :)
Flavius Goicea on June 15, 2015
Sweet!! Make it like Bard's Tale II, that was my favorite! Second RPG I ever finished after Phantasy Star! First computer RPG I ever finished! "In cavers deeps, near pits of fire, the Argon creep, and do conspire!" Unforgettable.
