About Deathtrap Dungeon

Hear ye, hear ye! The Honorable Baron Sukumvit has offered a prize worth 10,000 gold pieces to the first to survive his dungeon. As an added bonus the Baron has agreed to graciously step down from his position of absolute power and leave the town of Fang to rule itself as it sees fit. Many have attempted “The Walk”, as it has come to be known but for some odd reason not a single one has emerged victorious.

Who amongst you shall attempt The Walk? Who will be the hero or heroine that survives the Deathtrap Dungeon? Dive headfirst into the macabre and devilish labyrinth of Deathtrap Dungeon. Fight for your life against a bewildering rogue’s gallery of fiends and foes ranging from fire-belching dragons to insidious serpent women. Take up and master a cornucopia of weapons ranging from swords and warhammers to blunderbusses and infernal devices, just to name a few. Based on the multi-million selling Fighting Fantasy book series by Ian Livingstone, Deathtrap Dungeon is the ultimate dungeon hack and slasher!

Fight against 50+ monsters ranging from fire-breathing dragons and exploding pigs to demonic dungeon dwellers and the undead! Give it everything you got as you master a variety of weapons including swords , hammers, muskets, flamethrowers, magic spells, and your own bloodied fists! Play as either the heroic Bandog or the deadly and sexy heroine Red Lotus.…
