What is Dungeons 3?
In this strategy game, you manage an underground dungeon and direct an army in real-time battles on the surface. With the dark elf Thalya as your lieutenant, you build rooms, place traps, recruit creatures, and send them against heroes. The game has a mission-based campaign, randomly generated levels, and two-player co-op.
For you if...
- +you enjoy balancing dungeon management with real-time battles
- +you like joke-heavy fantasy stories with a villain protagonist
- +you want a mission-based campaign or two-player co-op
Not for you if...
- −you dislike switching between base management and army combat
- −you prefer understated dialogue to constant fantasy parody
