 The gameplay of "Icewind Dale" is similar to that of "Baldur's Gate".As with "Baldur's Gate", the game is based on the "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" 2nd edition ruleset, and the combat system is a quasi-real-time adaptation of the normally turn-based "Dungeons & Dragons" combat system used.Dice rolling and the like are all done automatically, without requiring the player's participation, although it is possible to pause the game at any time to issue orders to the party.
