A Backstab in the Dark--A Single-Take Review of Dungeon Raiders

April 05, 2017/ Jeremiah Isley

For today's review Jeremiahs looks at Dungeon Raiders. It's time to bluff, slash, grab, loot, dodge, and throw your friends under the bus. Or whatever functions as a bus in fantasy world. A troll? I dunno. This metaphor is falling apart... Dungeon Raiders is a lightweight, bluffing dungeon crawler that brings a lot of cutthroat co-operative skullduggery to the table.

So should you go skulking into the dungeon with your fellow raiders? Or is this game as exciting as a gelatinous cube? Let's find out!

TOG Visual - Michael Coe and Dungeon Heroes!

One of our first stops at Origins was the Gamelyn Games booth, where we had a little chat with Michael Coe, founder of Gamelyn Games and designer of Dungeon Heroes, a fun little 2-player dungeon crawl with outstanding components.

We'll be writing a full-out Double-Take Review of Dungeon Heroes very soon, but until we do you can get a good feel of the game from watching the video.

More Descent Coming From Fantasy Flight Games

February 15, 2013/ Theology of Games

The "when-do-they-sleep?" game company Fantasy Flight announced a new expansion for their hit dungeon crawler Descent: Journeys in the Dark. Labyrinth Of Ruin is "set in a previously unexplored region of Terrinoth, Labyrinth of Ruin takes players on a riveting journey to the broken remains of a forgotten city. Throughout the many quests included in this expansion, heroes will enlist the aid of unique allies in their mission to stop the evil overlord." The game includes 19 quests, designed to be played as a campaign, but you can play them as standalone quests, too. There are also new heroes, monsters, and an Overlord deck—plus new Travel Event cards, Condition cards, Shop Item cards, and two green power dice.
