Review: At its core ‘Terragon: Symbol Of Magic’ is an action dungeon crawler in which you will be fighting a range of monsters by performing spells that consist of various shapes you have to draw. The good news is there are some quick-fire magic weapons as well for when you don’t have time to draw the more powerful ones. While the graphics are a little sparse at times the monsters themselves look OK as do the magic casting effects. If you are willing to commit some time and effort to get into this game you will be rewarded and you should find value for money, but the gameplay really doesn’t change all that much from dungeon to dungeon and I did find myself getting a little bored of it rather quickly. D & D fans will probably like it a lot more than I did, but even I am happy to recommend it if you like this style of game.
