Dungeon Lords Review |

Posted on Thursday, April 20 at 9:11 AM GMT -6
Boomtown has written up a review of Dungeon Lords, and although it appears that they only played through Fargrove and its sewers, they've decided to give the RPG an overall score of 3/10. An excerpt to follow:
You cannot customize the look of your character despite the manual actually saying you can. Even if it had only a fraction of the customisation options of Oblivion – which forced us to spend almost an hour getting our avatar to look right – it would have been better than none at all. What hurts even more is that the existing designs are rubbish too.
Let’s see, anything else? There is no music and only limited dialogue. Combat revolves around left-clicking to thrust, right-clicking to block. And it’s terribly depressing. No fun can be had with such a rudimentary control scheme – certainly not in an age when games like Condemned and Oblivion show us how diverse a simplistic melee can be.
