    At last, the Dungeon Lord has successfully united the forces of evil and established his dark empire. Time for the next step in his most diabolical quest: expansion!

    Through enticing the dark elf priestess Thalya from the fluffy clutches of the surface world to become his chief lieutenant, the Dungeon Lord has found a way to direct his campaign of conquest from the confines of his underground lair. With Thalya on the front line, and the united forces of evil to support her, players will have to use every trick in the book to best those do-gooders of the overworld, once and for all!

    Unleash your dark side by creating a unique underground dungeon from a huge array of rooms, traps and structures. Raise the most terrifying army the world has ever seen, by choosing from despicable creatures such as orcs, succubae, zombies and much, much more. Then, once you have built your forces, emerge from the darkness and guide your army to the light of the overworld, where you will corrupt the land and dispatch anything even vaguely heroic, cute or unicorn-shaped. And in a first for the Dungeons series, experience randomly generated levels, so that no two sessions are alike -- never ending fun for any evil conqueror!

    This is a hard game to review because the game itself is great fun. Or it would be if it wasn't such a mess. As you play levels the game getsThis is a hard game to review because the game itself is great fun. Or it would be if it wasn't such a mess. As you play levels the game gets progressively and consistently more laggy. At times the audio glitches out and you lose parts of the sound or all sound entirely.

    Other times the UI entirely stops working and you find that for no obvious reason whatsoever you end up incapable of accessing the menu wheel that you need for building rooms/casting spells/summoning creatures etc.

    Sometimes, the game crashes entirely.

    The only resolution I seem to have found for some of these issues is to close the game entirely and then reopen it and reload a save.

    All of this might be more forgivable if it were cheaper but at ~£30, it's not really acceptable that it's this buggy. The score I've given is only as high as it is because the gameplay itself, when it's working, is really, really enjoyable. Hopefully the issues can all be resolved with some patching.
