The game is your basic good-versus-evil fare, with a silent hero wading through hordes of baddies in different levels with different terrain to ultimately fight the boss at the end. Along the way, you’ll pick up better weapons and armor that let you take on bigger and badder enemies that drop better and more powerful loot, and so on.
The game runs a little over 8-9 hours, making it much shorter than other titles in the genre, but it isn’t meant to be more than that. Besides, where else are you going to find a light romp through an evil dungeon nowadays without having your six-year-old asking “what’s a succubus?”
