Just to give folks a background, I have played D&D since the mid 80’s. When I heard a D&D game was coming out for the PSP I got really excited, disappointed, excited, disappointed and excited again as the release date kept getting pushed back. As the company pushed the release date back they kept removing cool features like possible expansion packs you could download or multi player with characters you create.I became a bit more hesitant but decided to pick this game up. I knew it was going to have a tactics feel to it, but they still billed it as an RPG. I can’t believe how wrong that is. There is no world to explore, just a bunch of menu type areas that lead from one battlefield to another. The “cut scenes” look and read like they were typed up by 12 year olds, no offense meant to 12 year olds out there, but it’s the closest thing to what this game offers… Also character movement in this game sucks too. There were many times I tried to move my character around the attack range of mobs and it just wont let you. It has some kind of wierd auto path arrow that seems to have a life of its own when you pick where you want your characters to go.The graphics are sub par to other RPG’s I have played on the PSP. The menu system is probably the worst in this game, clunky and time consuming. When they say there is 40 or so hours of game play for this game they may have been correct. 10 hours of play and 30 hours of using the menu system.The rules for 3.5 D&D are followed fairly well.

I used to play D&D back when I was a teenager, and I was currently looking for a time wasting game for traveling that was turn based. Since Risk hasn’t been rehashed, I decided to give it a shot. From what I remember about D&D, this game seems to follow the rules exactly. The graphics are good, and the game plays well. I dig it.

On the plus side, it’s Dungeons and Dragons.On the minus side:- It’s dark. Really dark. Not Film Noir dark but hard-to-see dark. Take a look at the screenshots above and you’ll notice that all but one of them is an outdoor encounter. The one indoor shot is full of lava. 75% of the game takes place in unlit indoor dungeons. Playing the dungeons in daylight places is difficult, even in the shade. Light levels vary between characters, and sometimes don’t follow. Go from a human with a light spell to a dwarf using darkvision and you may or may not be able to see the dwarfs surroundings. It’s difficult to distinguish doors from walls.- Shopping for gear, equipping gear and figuring out how to lighten your load is clunky. What a particular weapon or piece of armor will do is displayed in a column that’s only a couple of words wide, with the numeric information at the bottom. There’s no mechanism for comparing an item in a shop with what your character currently has equipped.- Buffs don’t get displayed. You get an icon over your characters head on screen, but there’s no display for +stats anywhere. Maybe they work, maybe they don’t. Hard to tell.- Very difficult to get started, especially if you don’t save/re-roll/reload each character level to get better hit points. It then gets abruptly easy with some of the upper level spells.- If the one character you chose first (the one that’s “you”) dies, the game ends. Even if you have a Cleric standing there ready to raise you.- Dungeons sh.

Good game for single player. Terrible for multiplayer. Which is what I bought it for. You only get one dungeon to play and it gets rediculous hard very fast. You just play it over and over to see how far you can get. Not far! BOOOORIIIINNNGG!

Seems to me a lot of reviews that trash this game are really unfair. I loved it and really missed it once it was over.I am a Dungeons and Dragons player and I’ll admit that the fact that this game is based on DnD rules was a major draw for me. Lets just say it’s very satisfying to see all the classes and races and items you know so well and to form your own well balanced party to kill stuff and find treasure. That’s what it boils down to and that’s what it delivers.There’s no use in complaining about the game not adhering strictly to the rules since obviously a PSP game has limitations that your imagination and pen and paper dont.The story is retarted. There are no real decisions to make and there is no role playing. It’s dungeon diving, plain and simple. Level up your guys, explore cool settings and get stoked when you get your head bitten off by a mind flayer.The graphics are beautiful. Lighting a torch in a pitch black dungeon looks just as it should. The menus are awkward as hell, but you learn it after a while. It’s also sort of glitchy. Save it in multiple slots. Hopefully they make a sequel and work out some of the irritating bugs because this game has a lot of promise for strategy fans and DnD freaks alike.

A lot of reviews are simply negative when compared to other games out there.. which is unfair since this is a unique game that stand out all by itself. The other turn based games people think of are Final Fantasy tactics is just not the same as this game. The style is different, and in my opinion, it far superior to the out dated ones in FFT. The turn based aspects are very predictable, you do need to think about your strategy and your party creation before you get into any encounters. This makes the game somewhat harder than most out there, it is not a twitch based action game, a battle can easily take 20 minutes for a boss fight. Sometimes it comes down to one spell that makes or breaks the encounter, or one class that has a unique ability. You can change your party any time but you have to level up, and that takes time. You will be saving game regularly, because you can be wiped out in one bad encounter.Exploration is the only part that is problematic in this game, in that you can not stealth around, but you can pull creatures to your party. So again, it depends on your tactics, not the game.If your looking to play a rewarding, and unique game, I recommend this one, it will be a D&D turn based classic.

It’s a great game if you play D&D 3.5 or even 4 (but not so much for 4ed players) but for people new to the game it’s a little challenging at first and could start off a bit slow. I’d still recommend this game for psp users who want to play D&D but can’t for some reason.
