Nicely done, Venter. You start the review off with an enviably high level of polished prose. You kept my interest throughout too, and that's something considering this sort of game doesn't normally do it for me.

Thanks for reading! Regarding the first point, I used "dungeon crawler" to say what sort of game it was (to me, that's as evocative as any other phrase or description I might have used) and then I elaborated throughout. For the second point, that was meant to be a break from discussion of story with the point that most people who play games like this aren't actually looking for an in-depth story. I'd be interested in hearing from others if either of those points detracted from reading the review, or contributed to confusion or anything along those lines. I'm too close to my own work, I think.

Okay, I read quickly, so clearly I missed the dungeon crawler bit.
