Kalypso Media and Realmforge Studios have released a dark and humourous new gameplay video for the upcoming Dungeons. The game promises to mix elements of strategy, simulation and tower-defense.
The new trailer takes viewers into the labyrinthine world of Dungeons, where players, in the role of a recently deposed Dungeon Lord, craft insidious dungeons in an effort to entice hapless adventurers, only to harvest their precious soul energy once captured.
To view the trailer one need simply visit the official Dungeons website. Beta sign-ups are also open for whoever wishes to participate.
About Dungeons
Dungeons follows the misadventures of the foremost of all Dungeon Lords, who spends his time luring heroes into his labyrinthine creations with the promise of treasure and a good fight – only to be trapped by his ingenious devices.
In Dungeons, our protagonist falls victim to a devious plot hatched by his vile, nasty and thoroughly vicious ex-girlfriend and finds himself at the bottom of the underworld hierarchy and the top of the dungeon pile. In his world, that is about as bad as it can get. Our lord must have his revenge, and make his way back down the dungeon levels to his rightful place – but first he must deal with his new bosses, the three despicable Dungeon Lords who stand in his way.
At his disposal are his dim-witted goblin minions who dig tunnels and build rooms to lay out his lair and trap ever stronger and braver heroes who dare to enter, not forgetting to plot his revenge against his ex-girlfriend and his new bosses who thinks it’s great fun to bombard him with useless tasks. It goes without saying that a malicious and sneaky creature such as our Dungeon Lord has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Revenge will be sweet indeed.
Kalypso plans to release Dungeons in February 2011 for Windows PC.
