There are big threads in the GOG forums on this. Unfortunately, it sounds like the rights to the gold box IP are scattered across legal hell.
But if anyone would ever release the gold box games (especially Pool of Radiance | Curse of the Azure Bonds | Secret of the Silver Blade) in an enhanced format that would run cleanly on modern machines without an emulator.....I would immediately open my wallet.
If we're dreaming, there are a bunch of wargames under the SSI brand (that also published bunch of the gold box stuff) that while lite on graphics I'd still love to have playable now.
I'm fortunate to actually own this gem. If you can get your hands on it, all the games work in DOSBOX just fine. I love that it came with printed version of all the manuals as well as the code wheels. If you can find a used copy...snag it!
Wow, I see Shadow of the Horned Rat on there... I have that boxed, unopened, from way back in some mail promotion they did like 'Buy 2 and get them for ONLY $30 each!!'
