Trying to remember the name of a dungeon crawler
« on: January 15, 2012, 12:20:47 am »

It was 2D, top down dungeon crawler from perhaps 13 or 14 years ago? Hack and smashy fast paced but with party members I think. The maps may have been randomly generated.

Anybody have an idea? Or perhaps recommend me something similar?

Anything else you can recall about it? A little vague, you have to admit :P

That's every dungeon crawler ever.

Sorry, I forgot about that thread!

Also, thanks for mentioning Gauntlet, that wasn't it, but it helped me find what I was thinking of, this.

Quote from: Wiki
This gameplay is almost identical to that of Atari's arcade game Gauntlet.

I consider this a victory.
