    Ultimately, to quote myself, "it's hard not to expect more from adaptations now. Unfortunately, the minimum effort that went into Deathtrap Dungeon (and now Fighting Fantasy Legends) is still disappointing. I'm not sure what possessed the team to dust off a five-year-old release for Switch when, as far as I can tell, no one was really asking for it. I guess there might be some marginal value there for a tiny few people, but I really do mean tiny few. Especially with Tin Man Games's take on Firetop Mountain also on Switch.

Legends, with its great storytelling but generally discouraging dice-rolling mechanics in particular, effectively straddles the line with its implementation. You can get glimpses of the classic experience in certain elements of play, the game’s text describing your adventure, in particular, is consistently compelling and well-written. The problem tends to be most everything else, from the pretty minimal use of artwork that may have helped add some flesh to the game’s bones to the dice rolls that feel like they favor your demise more often than not. For role playing fans this still may be a bit of fun, but for everyone else I’d take a hard look at video and the impressions of others before taking the plunge.
