Dungeons is currently #1 on the sales charts in Germany, and here is just some of the praise for the game so far –

"’Dungeons’ simulation core, story, humour, and role-playing elements make it quite unique." – Hooked Gamers

“An evil experience everyone can get behind – hard, funny and very satisfying” - PCGZine

“With clever and enjoyable gameplay that turns the tower defense genre on its head, this one is a real keeper. “ – Strategy Informer

Dungeons follows the misadventures of the foremost of all Dungeon Lords, who spends his time luring heroes into his labyrinthine creations with the promise of treasure and a good fight -- only to be trapped by his ingenious devices.

In Dungeons, our protagonist falls victim to a devious plot hatched by his vile, nasty and thoroughly vicious ex-girlfriend and finds himself at the bottom of the underworld hierarchy and the top of the dungeon pile. In his world, that is about as bad as it can get. Our lord must have his revenge, and make his way back down the dungeon levels to his rightful place -- but first he must deal with his new bosses, the three despicable Dungeon Lords who stand in his way.

At his disposal are his dim-witted goblin minions who dig tunnels and build rooms to lay out his lair and trap ever stronger and braver heroes who dare to enter, not forgetting to plot his revenge against his ex-girlfriend and his new bosses who think it’s great fun to bombard him with useless tasks. It goes without saying that a malicious and sneaky creature such as our Dungeon Lord has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Revenge will be sweet indeed.

Get ready for a fight! Lure 10 different hero classes into your dungeon where 15 different monsters lurk in the darkness 17 challenging campaign missions demand all your cunning to succeed. Survive them – and there's still the custom game waiting for you In a dungeon there's only one way you can go and that’s down.
