    Deep Labyrinth is every generic action-RPG you've ever played overlaid with what is quite possibly one of the worst control schemes in any DS game.

    "King's Field" was a slow, clumsy, fairly-boring-to-look-at first-person hack-and-slasher with a legendarily lousy framerate. Deep Labyrinth is all of those too, except that its framerate isn't bad enough to pass into legend.

    But a clumsy game/ And terrible visuals/ Drag this down, way down.

    The gameplay mixes first-person action with a rune-drawing-like spellcasting mechanic similiar to "Lost Magic", but every aspect is unresponsive, sluggish, and repetitive. [Oct. 2006, p.114]

    On balance, its lack of ambition is supported only by a very basic underlying solidity in its execution: too weak to tackle bigger monsters, but strong enough to soldier on with some perseverance. [Nov 2006, p.89]

    I really did try to like this game, it had some great moments but there covered in tedious and Annoying moments, the controls were terribleI really did try to like this game, it had some great moments but there covered in tedious and Annoying moments, the controls were terrible with the magic system being completely broken, the CPUs where full of glitches and unstable to say the least. Overall I just can’t recommend this game to anyone.… Full Review »

    This game is so repetitive and the enemies are usually a different-coloured copies. But the control of the Sword and the Magic system are This game is so repetitive and the enemies are usually a different-coloured copies. But the control of the Sword and the Magic system are really funny and incredible. It glimps a nice concept with some fails, but so good at all.… Full Review »

    This game never really sold, but I still got it a few days ago for $12, and I must say it was worth it, for the most part the game is great, This game never really sold, but I still got it a few days ago for $12, and I must say it was worth it, for the most part the game is great, it only lacks replay, but the game is long enough to where that doesn't seem to be an issue. Most reviews say it's repeative, but that's not entirely true, I found the game to change a bit in every dungeon, always adding something to try and trick you up.… Full Review »
