GBP: Pool of Radiance Part 12 – Valjevo Castle
We now, at last, come to the largest and final area of the game – Valjevo Castle, the home of Tyranthraxus.

GBP: Pool of Radiance Part 11 – Kovel Mansion
The Koval Mansion isn’t the last City Hex we have to go – Stojenow Gate and Valjevo Castle still remain. However, it is the last city hex we have a quest for – and indeed there are no official quests for those areas, so theoretically we can just push through right now. But, first, let’s get this last city hex.

GBP: Pool of Radiance Part 10 – Wealthy Area and the Temple of Bane
These two city hexes are effectively linked, in the sense that one cannot be cleared without the other, and both are light on fixed encounters, so I’m covering them here in one combined post.

GBP: Pool of Radiance Part 9 – Valhaigen Graveyard
The Valhaigen Graveyard is probably one of the more frustrating parts of the game thus far, and definitely, one that I probably could not have beaten had I not been using the Gold Box Companion software. It’s also one where I’m probably going to misspell the name of the area repeatedly as I make my way through the article.

Gold Box Playthrough: Pool of Radiance Part 8 – Mendor’s Library
With the Belt of Giant Strength, at last we can bash through the doors of Mendor’s Library and get this quest completed!

Gold Box Playthrough: Pool of Radiance Part 6 – Cadorna Textile House
I’m still not particularly able to pick the locks (or force the door) to Mendor’s Library, so when it comes to the main body of the city, this means we’re moving on to the Cadorna Textile House quest.

GBP: Pool of Radiance – Part 5 (How I’m Playing This)
After clearing Podol Plaza, I tried to get into Mendor’s Library again, only to not be able to get in due to failing my open lock and break down door checks. So, to grind up further, I decided to go take care of clearing Podol Plaza, and dealing with some of the remaining fixed encounters there and in Kuto’s Well, to grind some additional XP. While I’m doing this, I thought I’d talk a little bit about how I’m playing this game.

GBP: Pool of Radiance – Part 2 (Sokol Keep)
After you’ve cleared the Slums – in terms of quest goals, you have a few new options. On the one hand, you can continue inland to Kuto’s Well. On the other, you can now travel out to Sokol Keep out in the bay around the city. With this comes a bunch of new quest goals as well. One quest goal tasks the party with spying … Continue reading GBP: Pool of Radiance – Part 2 (Sokol Keep)
