Tags: Dungeon Lords; Heuristic Park Inc.IGN has posted a 2-page preview of the combat RPG of 2004, Dungeon Lords, praising gameplay but noting that combat is "still a little loose", whatever it is.
Combat isn't exactly a complicated affair. Once you get a hang of using different attacks to hit in combination and for different reasons, it's mainly about positioning your body to the best effect and upgrading your character as experience is gained. One of the cool things about Dungeon Lords is that while your character does gain in level, experience points can be immediately spent at any time in a ton of different areas. So if you have some experience saved up and you run across a chest that requires a higher "disarm traps" skill than you currently have, you can go into the character screen and spend some points in that area.That's very cool indeed. Another cool thing about Dungeon Lords is that it has itamz like swords and axes. Far out, huh?
