Description: Grab your gear and delve into the dungeons of this rogue-lite dungeon crawler, Ancient Dungeon VR, and uncover its secrets. The Ancient Dungeon is known throughout the land; a place of malice and danger to all but a few brave souls. These men and women – adventurers, explorers, even scholars – enter the dungeon in pursuit of legendary fortunes and objects of immense power, all believing themselves more capable than those who have gone before…but few return.

Review: ‘Ancient Dungeon’ is pretty much what its name suggests it is, this is a Minecraft inspired Dungeon Crawler that runs with procedurally generated levels meaning you will never play the same level twice. To be fair, the first few runs through the dungeons maze I was enjoying it and you can find yourself playing this for a long period of time. But the gameplay loop soon gets a little tiring meaning you might not get your money’s worth given the higher price point. But if you are OK with the gameplay grind you might enjoy this, but after a while, I personally found it to be underwhelming and a little shallow for the money.
