Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession

In Strahd’s Possession, you’re tossed into the mists of Barovia, where Count Strahd—smooth, sinister, and eternally well-groomed—looms over everything. The game’s real charm is its atmosphere: forests that whisper threats, villagers who look like they haven’t slept since the third moon waned, and a story that keeps tightening the noose. The real-time combat takes getting used to, but the world-building more than compensates. As you sift through cursed artifacts, haunted manors, and unfortunate undead residents, you start to feel the weight of the setting. It’s less about power fantasies and more about surviving a land that really wishes you wouldn’t.

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession review

Electronic Games (1994): "Strahd's Possession is the perfect way to begin a series of games based on the Ravenloft world. SSI’s new approach, to produce games as complete entities instead of parts in a series (the bane of the “Gold Box” games), which they began with Dark Sun, works quite well. They should continue this method indefinitely. It gives different designers a chance to make their own mark on the RPG market with an AD&D game. This should be helpful to all the young designers out there who want to succeed. Strahd’s Possession is another fine example of DreamForge’s skills and a fun way to explore a land where things always go bump in the night."
