Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance

Your final battle in Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance – presuming one gets there before uninstalling the game – sees your party taking on Icewind, a White Dragon. Despite being the smallest of the dragon types, White Dragons were fairly dangerous. But even if you didn’t know all of the details, it’s still unsatisfying as hell when you finish the fight…only to see Icewind fall unceremoniously, and a brief voice-over talking about how you “broke” the dark alliance and how together, you could overcome “anything” (except a horrible game, of course).
