PC Windows Linux Mac OS Playstation 4 Xbox One

In Dungeons 3, you are a Dungeon Lord who has enlisted the help of the dark elf Thalya to defeat the forces of good. Build your own underground dungeon filled with traps and structures, and raise an army with creatures such as orcs and zombies. With randomly generated levels and a new co-op mode, this dungeon sim offers endless hours of fun for any evil conqueror.


What we like:
  • Fun dungeon building mechanics
  • Above-ground combat adds variety
  • Lots of Easter eggs and pop culture references
  • Great narrator
  • Fun to play with a partner or friend
What could be improved:
  • Some cringy jokes
  • Mechanics can feel a bit dumbed down
  • Graphics are decent but not amazing
