A mediocre bash them up game with stiff models, no voice acting, little polish you have come to expect from the D&D licence.

this is a decent hack-and-slash game with 4 player online coop support.

I extremely dislike this game. it is a bloody shitty console port. Endless bugs and alot of graphical glitches. Armor textures not loading,for example,the second armor,Leather armor for my fighter,made me look like a smurf. If i could id love my money back >.>

Im not entirely sure why this game was rated so bad. I mean, it is by no means a great game, it certainly is a budget title. There is lots of weird bugs. Things like items or monsters falling through the floor, some weird hit detection and some targeting problems. the graphics arnt very good with some low res textures and repetitive environments. But the action is fast paced and fun and the D&D rule set is mostly intact. I mean, its a budget action RPG priced at 15$. I dont know what people were expecting but I personally had a good time with it.

This action-RPG is more focused on the action, with customization elements (as opposed to a character-driven game with action elements.) Play is quite linear with quests taking you from place to place. You get a choice of four characters and I can see how multiplayer might work with the assembly of the typical party of warrior, rogue, wizard and cleric. Note that the game's use of D&D 4th edition is mostly limited to the characters and story elements. Sure, there is the notion of class powers and characters have the usual attributes and supposedly make to-hit checks but don't expect a full conversion of the tabletop rules. After all it's first and foremost an action game.

I think this game would be nice if it wasn't for the controls (wich can't be remapped), some graphical glitches and its interface. The combat is nice enough when playing with some friends, always funny to bash some goblin skulls with your pals as monsters scale according to number of players, but beyond that, this game offer nothing. Don't let the D&D in the title fool you. This isn't Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale. It's more like Dark Alliance.

I would rate it 3 stars if they patched it up a bit more.

This is an average action-RPG which could have been a lot better. As it is, it's decent value for your money if you pick it up for €10 and like console-ish action games with a light touch of RPG - if you can stand the numerous cosmetic issues.

You play as one of four pre-generated heroes that are tasked with with defeating the evil Rezlus. The game consists almost entirely of hack-and-slash combat, and the RPG parts of the game consists of upgrading your equipment and your attacks. The influence of games lika Diablo should be obvious for anyone who enjoyed that game. Sure, lots of things differ slightly, but it's essentially a Diablo clone with different camera and controls that make the action more personal. The graphics and environment are seamless and quite stunning. It's not a complicated game, but it doesn't pretend to be one either.

The thing that drags the game down is the huge numbers of bugs and rushed design decisions. Most are cosmetic, but they still leave you with the impression of a game only half finished. Some are serious and prevent you from solving quests in the game before you restart the game. Fortunately, there doesn't seem to be any bugs that cause the game to crash. At least not on my computer.

Growing up with Dungeons & Dragons it is fun to have a hack and slash game (kin to Torchlite and Fate) in the D and D setting. The camera can get on your nerves at times when you really want to see you character and not a rock wall!

It seems D&D games keep getting more and more simple. This game would have been better if there were more than 3 choices for characters, rather than 3 premade ones. D&D was always about creating your character and developing it, now it is just a mindless hack and slash video game.
