   The map from Hero's Quest II/Quest For Glory II: Trial by Fire.

   Hastily renamed due to a blatantly unfair trademark dispute from MB Games, QFG2 has one of the loveliest in-box maps you'll ever see. Shapeir remains a bit of a 'mare to navigate in-game.

   The Coles were ahead of their time when it came to even-handed representation of non-European-inspired cultures, but I do wonder how the game would stand up to a play-through via Edward Said.
