Old school: first-person party-based CRPGs

Party-based role-playing games with a first person perspective became popular after the release of Dungeon Master in 1989. Before Dungeon Master only a handful RPGs used first person, the Bard's Tale and Wizardry series among others.
Dungeon Master managed to create a very neat user interface without sacrificing the gameplay.

Some of the most popular first person perspective series are:

• Eye of the Beholder
• the Wizardry series
• the Might and Magic series
• Dungeon Master
• Lands of Lore
