Our take on Deathtrap Dungeon
Players who are comfortable exploring but dislike punishment will likely bounce off the first stretch where traps and monster encounters combine. The wall is the dungeon’s hazard-and-combat loop: progress depends on surviving both environmental threats and enemy attacks.
What is Deathtrap Dungeon?
Enter a dungeon built by a baron seeking notoriety for his town.
Choose between Red Lotus, an assassin, and Chaindog, a warrior, then fight through subterranean pits and passageways toward Melkor, a great dragon. The journey includes brutal combat, deadly traps and dark magic. Weapons, spells and charms can be found and used during the expedition. The dungeon contains 38 levels and 53 types of monsters controlled by artificial intelligence. Victory brings gold and glory after Melkor is defeated; failure ends in death. Deathtrap Dungeon is structured around progressing toward the dungeon’s center while facing monsters and hazards along the route.
