  Great if you like D&D August 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game is great if you like D&D. If you dont then you wont have a clue wat is going on in the game. The game can be kinda slow but it can get tense. So if you like D&D or know how to play it get this game.
  Stop right there. August 4, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I know. I was there, too. I read all the mediocre reviews. I read the bad ones. Incredibly, once in a while, I found a good one. I thought to myself, "Could it be true? Could D&D Tactics really suck that bad?" The sad, sad answer is "Yes." This game is truly horrible. Blame Atari, or blame Wizards of the Coast, or blame Kuju, or blame yourself for thinking this could be at all decent. Just don't blame me. I told you not to buy it. Oh, wait, I didn't do that yet. OK, here's my advice: Press your browser's BACK button as quickly as possible and never look here again. Don't buy this. Don't. You'll even regret spending the shipping even if this game cost you a penny. The purchase of a game like this only encourages the production of awful video games. Here's the real deal: Q: Does it have Dungeons? A: Yes. Q: Does it have Dragons? A: Yes. Q: Does It have even an INKLING of fun? A: No. Sadly, no. I wanted to like this game. I really did. I wanted to like it so much I played it for 29.7 hours. True story. But, try as I might, I can't like an awful game. And I sure as hell would never recommend one. If you still want to play it, I have one for sale cheap.
  Fun game- really keeps the tradition and gameplay of D&D May 31, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I used to play D&D back when I was a teenager, and I was currently looking for a time wasting game for traveling that was turn based. Since Risk hasn't been rehashed, I decided to give it a shot. From what I remember about D&D, this game seems to follow the rules exactly. The graphics are good, and the game plays well. I dig it.
  Boring May 20, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I like RPG's, Dungeons and Dragons, and Tactics games; but I put this game down after about 15 minutes and haven't picked it back up.
For one, if you want to roll your own characters, it will take you close to an hour before you even start playing the game. After that, I just don't find that the D&D 3.5 ruleset makes for a good backdrop to make a tactics game. Furthermore, there is inclusion of some D&D details that just distract from gameplay.
I would be more inclined to think that the D&D Miniatures franchise would be more suiting. Are you listening WoTC? ;)
  Great game that gets ragged on. May 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Seems to me a lot of reviews that trash this game are really unfair. I loved it and really missed it once it was over.
I am a Dungeons and Dragons player and I'll admit that the fact that this game is based on DnD rules was a major draw for me. Lets just say it's very satisfying to see all the classes and races and items you know so well and to form your own well balanced party to kill stuff and find treasure. That's what it boils down to and that's what it delivers.
There's no use in complaining about the game not adhering strictly to the rules since obviously a PSP game has limitations that your imagination and pen and paper dont.
The story is retarted. There are no real decisions to make and there is no role playing. It's dungeon diving, plain and simple. Level up your guys, explore cool settings and get stoked when you get your head bitten off by a mind flayer.
The graphics are beautiful. Lighting a torch in a pitch black dungeon looks just as it should. The menus are awkward as hell, but you learn it after a while. It's also sort of glitchy. Save it in multiple slots. Hopefully they make a sequel and work out some of the irritating bugs because this game has a lot of promise for strategy fans and DnD freaks alike.
