You can find potions (!), scrolls (?), rings (=), weapons (variously represented by the pipe and slashes). It is basically a Tolkien themed, single person, turn based, random dungeon game. And there are dozens of variations including sci-fi, Zelazney's Amber series.... etc.

Jardinains - A great pong/breakout game. There's a new version 1.2 that I've yet to try, looks nicer and more rich than 1.0.

Betrayal at Krondor - The CLASSIC rpg from Sierra in 1993 is available for free. When Sierra released their horrible quasi sequel Betrayal in Antara (no relation to the Krondor storyline) they released Krondor for free. It was about a 12 meg zip file to download. I know it can be found on the web still. While its an 11 year old dos game, BaK is one of the best RPG's ever made. Also, it was a very early try at being 3d (polygonal landscapes and mountains) and the graphics really, aren't that bad.

Ultima IV - Arguably the best ultima game of all. If you have not played it and you like RPGs, you MUST play this game. It runs in DOS, but I think it works ok in a DOS box on modern versions of windows.
