Back then you also often had to draw the maps by hand on grid paper too, while struggling against dungeons that sometimes attempted to get you lost through things like teleporters, spinner tiles, and areas of darkness. Getting lost for too long was deadly because of the way random encounters were just dangerous enough to start draining your resources and causing failure spirals once party members start dying.

But a total party kill was not the end either. In some of those old games you could actually make a second party to go retrieve the corpses of the original party and have them resurrected kind of like in Dungeon Meshi (Kui is a known RPG fan).
