Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Slayer

Also known as: Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Lost Dungeon (Japan)

Developer: Lion Entertainment, Inc.

I remember putting this game in for the first time and expecting the worst. Then, a neat little introduction occurred, which piqued my interest. I started to play and explore, and before I knew it, I had lost several hours to this game. Basically, since this is a Dungeons & Dragons game, Slayer is a first-person dungeon crawler. As you wander around, you’ll find a wide assortment of enemies to encounter and environments to explore. The beauty of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Slayer is that it randomizes the dungeons every time you play. This means that every time you start a new game, you're getting a new experience. With the game boasting that the in-game dungeon generation can create over four billion dungeon possibilities, along with various difficulty settings that can also change things up, there's a whole heckuva lot to keep folks coming back to discover more. It’s just a shame that this was never released outside of the 3DO console (it was scheduled for a Playstation release, but cancelled) – a lot of folks missed out on this very solid game.
