Dungeon Lords Collector's Edition Review |

Posted on Tuesday, March 28 at 7:49 PM GMT -6
WorthPlaying has published a review of the Dungeon Lords Collector's Edition, giving DreamCatcher and Heuristic Park's repackaged version an overall score of 4.0/10. Their conclusion:
The Collector's Edition of Dungeon Lords offers a fairly large array of new options as you get further into the game; as I have not played the original version, I cannot say how much of this content is really new, or how "good" it is relative to the original. However, the fact that some of the core issues were not fixed on this second go-round causes it to feel like a cheap attempt at getting some extra cash from the fans of the first release.
If this has not been stated clearly enough, Dungeon Lords is riddled with an incredible number of basic issues, turning a reasonably good, if generic, concept into a nigh-intolerable game that shows potential to at least be fun, but falls short on almost every important scale. A few strongly dedicated Action/RPG players may find the game playable, however, I strongly recommend against spending the time and money to try.
Now that the game has been patched several times and an assortment of content has been added, I just don't see any glaring reasons why the score shouldn't be higher - especially when the reviewer never even played the original version.
