Just Play It

I've been playing RPGs since before they were available on computers. I've been playing this one for just over a year. I love the complicated play and in depth storyline some RPGs offer, but sometimes I just want to get in there and whack things on the head. Dungeon Runners delivers the whackability.

Beat stuff over the head, or shoot it, or magic it if you prefer, until it dies (bloodlessly) (don't worry, the monsters are well compensated for their participation and always resurrect for another go.) Get experience points to move up levels and get fabulous loot for selling or using. Then go back and do it again. If the monsters get you instead, don't worry; you also have amazing regenerative powers and can jump back in there almost immediately.

Along with the whacking, you can entertain yourself with wacky quests provided for each of the many dungeons available as you progress. You have to experience the in game atmosphere to believe it. This is not a game that takes itself seriously. Trust me; you really need to check it out to see what I mean here. The description on the box here at Amazon is just the tip of the iceberg. And really, you can check it out for free, and NEVER pay if that's what you want. I, however, am happy to contribute the five bucks a month, and am getting the box for the bling, not the six months subscription.

Pros:
A-dict-ive
absolutely HI-larious
on the whole, a nice community of players
can play alone or in a group
simple gameplay, but cleverness factor adds depth
new content added often enough to keep me going for a year and counting

Cons:
if you have to have a developed plot, then this is not the game for you
if you don't like dungeon crawlers, then this is not the game for you
current level cap is 100 (OTOH, it provides a goal instead of endless wandering)
people with no sense of humor will not be amused

Seriously, just play it :)

The Mother of all RPGs it is

I have been playing this game for a few months now and it is awesome IMHO. It is a great game that is a great dose of pure fun in this day of age of hardcore wow grind raid crap games. It is nothing more than a joyous dungeon romp that is not low on humor and has some very original ideas. where else do you have pooping gnomes and abba labbas that steal candy form willy wanka??? The best part is the membership is optional but defiantly worth the measly 5 dollars a month. You know you spend more on your daily crapbucks latte so put 5 bucks into this wonderful game.

So much value for the price!

It's amazing how much you get for the price of the retail box. The bling gnome is a massive time saver, the two free months is icing on the cake.

You also get trial codes for the other NCSOFT titles if you're curious on their other games.

You boys in Austin did good! I just want a way to outfit my bling gnome to make him look different, or a way to summon a girl bling gnome that has some other kind of roll in the game. Keep up the good work! Well worth the pice!!!

I LOVE this game!

This game is full of action, and is freakin' hilarious! I have been playing online for a while now, and I am stoked to now see this in a box for all the extras.

Dungeon Runners - Great for 5 minutes or 5 hours

I have played quite a few MMORPGs and as life has gotten more hectic I haven't had the time to play them much at all anymore; until DR came along. It is styled so that you can crawl and quest for hours or log on for 20 minutes and still feel you got some entertainment value out of it. The graphics are quite good for an online game and I very much appreciate that nothing in the game takes itself too seriously.
Good job NCSOFT!
I am now buying my copy of DR so I can get my Bling Gnome BooOOYYYY!

Dungeon Runners rocks!

If you like Diabloesque hack-and-slash, dig phat lewtz and have anything resembling a sense of humor then this is the game for you! Dungeon Runners is fun, fast-paced and rife with jokes, parodies and pop culture references. What other game gives you a quest chain that spoofs American Idol and lets you kill a mom named "Sanjyna"?!?

The Retail Box for Dungeon Runners, the hottest MMORPG going, is a great deal. You get the game CD, a set of way cool loading instructions, and a code for 6 months of Premium Membership, which is worth more than the price of the box! And the best thing is that this is the ONLY way to get the famous Bling Gnome who runs around picking up treasure for you! This is a great game for beginning gamers all the way up to old timers bored with the same old stuff in other games.

20$ well spent

for the 20$ you can pick this up for in any store you get TONS of value. it is an awesome fallback game! kind of like civ 4 or audio surf in the fact that some days you don't feel like dedicating hours to grinding out the same things you have done before. so you load up dungeon runners and get a healthy dose of madness.

one of the best things about this game over most others is you are not locked into being 1 archetype, you can be a bow wielding mage or a mage with a huge shield that tanks and spanks, or you can go for the classic mage that is in fact a mage its up to you!

the silliness is strong in this one, who needs a plot when you have comedy? and this game has it in spades, poking fun at its contemporaries through yes repetitive quests, and insanely funny weapon names. even the monster names are funny and the bling gnome... is just off the wall.

this game is a throwback to classic dungeon crawlers for the Genesis and tg-16, the more you hit the dungeon the better your loot gets, add to that the ability to ramp up the difficulty to increase the drop rates and you end up with something more challenging for greater rewards! i have played this game on and off for a long time now and have to say, most months i used to leave the sub on even if i wasnt playing. now with this box all the more reason.

i see some merchants selling this for over 20$. they should be banned or beheaded, this is intended to be a 20$ box packed with tons of value! once you remove the 20$ part the value spirals downward until you may as well just be playing it for free or pay them through the games web site.
