Hordes of the Underdark Review

Category: News ArchiveHits: 717
Hordes of the Underdark does almost everything a good expansion pack should. For starters, it adds a gigantic single-player campaign and a plethora of new monsters, spells, character classes and items. The expansion also significantly updates the overall graphical quality, potentially adding to the life of the franchise without getting in the way of what made the original fun. Even the storyline reaffirms the fundamental roots of Dungeons & Dragons - slogging through underground passageways, hunting for treasure and slaying dark elves. The experience brought back a lot of fond, geeky memories for this D&D veteran, but if you don't know your THAC0 from your Hit Dice, you'll still have a lot of fun with Underdark.
