Since GOG for some reason has not aquired the first 5 games yet. I am wondering if there is any other ways to get it.

And since these games will obviously use DOSBox, is there ways where I can download them so that I don't have to type in code to launch the game. Just press an icon and it launches.

Like ArenaSetup and DaggerfallSetup mind you.

Test bump to see if it appears in the forum:

EDIT: I see it now.

I think Google (or DuckDuckGo) is your friend, and a certain unafraidness of using abandonware and setting up DOSBox yourself.

PS: Nice rep :-)

I was hoping if there was anything similar to DaggerfallSetup.

The DOS versions of 1-3 have one significant bug which makes stats drop far more often than they should; I have even heard of young characters dying of old age. Therefore, I would not recommend them. (Wizardry 4 DOS might be a decent choice, though I don't think I've played all the way through it. The Apple 2 version of Wizardry 4 has a strange bug that can corrupt the stats of summoned monsters.)

In all honesty, the best version of 1-3 might actually be the Super Famicom version, if you are able to get it. (There are options to change most of the text to English.) Note that these are based on the Famicom/NES versions, which means that you get a version of 2 that's been rearranged and adapted to new characters (instead of transfering them).

Note that the NES version of 1 has a bug that makes AC (for the party) useless, so that isn't the best version.

The Apple 2 version of 1 has issues (encounters with too many enemies for a new party on level 1, game is rather slow, and of course the famous identify bug). The Commodore 64 version has an issue with alignment changing, sometimes when it's not supposed to, according to a post on the Wizardry sub forum.

I am not familiar with the DOS version of Wizardry 5, so I can't answer this, unfortunately.

The only versions of Wizardry 5 I've tried are the SNES version (decent, though it has a few quirks (like having stat caps dependent on race (Gnomes are best) and simplified dialog) and the PS1 version (lacks the SNES version's quirks, but BACORTU doesn't work).

Actually, I did examine the Apple 2 version. I haven't played it seriously, but one interesting feature is that it allows you to transfer characters between othe Wizardry games, including taking characters back to an earlier entry in the series (at the cost of losing all spells). This can be exploited by taking a Wizardry 3 character, back-transferring to Wizardry 1, using the Identify glitch to get 100 million experience, transferring back to Wizardry 3, and since the character already did the rite to be usable in Wizardry 3, this allows you to take all that experience into Wizardry 3. (If you want combat to retain its intended level of challenge, I suggest not doing this.)

Thank you for your swift reply.
