ST Action Issue 1 | Atari ST | Nick Clarkson | 90% | Unlike the Ultima range, Dungeon Master is icon driven. This process makes the game very accessible and I found it a joy to play. The game's graphics are very well implemented and the sound, too, although a little sparse, is of a pleasing quality. Overall, the game will provide a long-lasting challenge to the most ardent fantasy-playing freak; I think it also provides a good introduction to a would-be role-player. |

ST Action Issue 1 | Atari ST | Andy Mitchell | 90% | Arcade game players could not understand why anyone would want to play a boring text-only game and therefore avoided 'hack and slash' games like the plague. Dungeon Master is sure to be a game which will help change all this. There is the chore of mapping to be carried out and the booklet does warn that, even with a map, things can get confusing. In the relatively short time I have spent playing the game, I did find the spell-casting sequence a little mind boggling. Dungeon and Dragon fans seem to delight in confusing outsiders by making the magic aspect as bewildering as possible, so I have achieved little success in this aspect. However, I have no doubt that a little confusion is a good thing as it gives the player something to puzzle out and finally conquer. Buy this game today and 'wind up' a Spectrum owner. |
