For those looking for classic dungeon crawlers I will make you a list.
PS this is going to be a list for classic dungeon crawlers on GoG.com. Anvil of Dawn, stonekeep, ultima underworld 1 and 2 in a bundle FYI good purchase there. the wizardry games, the lands of lore series. That is all the first person dungeon crawlers I can list many other classic rpgs but these are the first person dungeon crawl ones. Thank me later pick one of these or all of them considering pretty much 90% of the games on that site are 6$ lol. :) thank me now, or flame me like the trolls you all are. I care not for I wanted to spread the joy of all these classics to the people who do not know of these hidden gems.

Not a bad list.
I'd include Dungeon Master 1 and 2. Legend of Grimrock draws very, very heavy from those two games. Do note that Dungeon Master 2 is really quite difficult.
They're available either as abandonware or on Amazon, although you'd need to have some skill at using Dosbox.

Captive and Captive: Liberation were also two games that were heavily inspired by the Dungeon Master setup, and are available as abandonware. Do note that they take place in a science fiction setting. They do have open world elements, when you travel between planets. The plot was basically that you, the player, was a prisoner, and could remote control four androids to rescue yourself.

The Eye of the Beholder series was also considered quite good, and takes place in the same setting as Neverwinter Nights, but were first person dungeon crawlers.

Dungeon master 2 was definitely one of my favorite games growing up, it's still worth a look today. The magic system is very similar but deeper.

Also worth a look if you have some old school hardware lying around is dungeons and dragons warriors of the eternal sun that game was incredible. Its only avalible on the sega megadrive (or genesis in America). It had an isometric top down world view and first person dungeon crawling, really good. Played it again recently, it was still great but my C button was a bit sticky.

Your C button is sticky? well judging by how much you praise it I am going to take a guess and say it's not juice O_o
