  1. Since it’s the UK version we are reviewing here, and most of the problems from the USA release have been fixed I think I’m being fair in the score I’ve awarded.
  2. Imagine an old-school RPG with loads of action and dungeon crawling without any asinine anime kids with their sissy tales of woe. With Dungeon Lords it's treasures, monsters and slicing and dicing all the way - just like it was in the good old days.
  3. So much squandered potential, it's mind-boggling. Needs serious patching. [Aug 2005, p.66]

    The lack of detail and polish simply killed this game.

    Very captivating game play. Has some mild bugs but a good blend of action, role playing and strategy.

    Game Is very basic. graphics will draw you in but game play will soon leave you bored and wondering why your pockets are empty. Could have really been something if developers took more time with it. Expand
