Lost Labyrinth is a coffeebreak dungeon crawling game!
The Labyrinth was more than a dungeon. It was the crowning achievement of the necromancer Mythrax, who wielded the Staff of the Covenant to bring dead stone to life and shape it by his will to form the most impenetrable fortress ever constructed.
Then Mythrax vanished. For years, the traps and spells that guarded the Labyrinth kept it just as Mythrax intended. As they broke down, wildlife and bandits sought a haven in the upper levels, even as long-imprisoned monsters broke free from the depths.
Now the Prince of Ulther has recovered an ancient scroll which suggests the Staff of the Covenant was broken during the construction of the Labyrinth, leaving the pieces still inside. Soon a wave of heroes will brave the Labyrinth, seeking the staff along with other unbelievable treasures deep within.
You are one of these brave heroes that travel to the Lost Laybrinth. Hopefully your skills and equipment will be good enough to survive this dungeon. There are dangerous monsters down there, fierce traps, and loads of gold. You will need Light and you will need Food and Water.
The dungeon can be completed by either collecting all 9 parts of the staff of the last covenant or by reaching level 150. Each part is hidden in a different room of the dungeon. One every 10 levels. Sometimes guarded by big monsters.
Compared to other games of its kind it has the following features:
- Relatively short gameplay (between 10-40 Minutes)
- Very high replayability because everything is created at random!
- Many different skills to choose from (every player needs another tactic!)
- No experience gain for killing monsters (only for reaching new levels!)
- Zelda like graphics
- Smooth scrolling
- Up to 4 players at the same machine
- Control with mouse, keyboard and joystick
- Versions for Windows and Linux
- Online Highscore
- English, German, Spanish, French, Norwegian, Hungarian, Polish and Chinese

Love this, but I want to modify the character image in my own game, can I request to open the permission of the player to modify the character image?
This game has never gotten enough love and it is criminal, great adventure game to play hot seat with 4 people, or start 4 players on your own, the game is extremely fun, you really need to play it, if you like simple yet deep roguelike adventures, this is it, lots of items,lots of magic, good over all, music is pretty retro and great to hear, over all good game, controls might be hard to figure out at first, sometimes the mouse cursor may act funny, but that is an easy fix, Masterpiece,hidden gem!
Too many bit's don't work smoothly. This tries to be a generic, versatile dungeon crawl. If everything (programatically) worked well, this would be awesome. But, sadly, all the little things, the mouse that doesn't know where it is, the non fluidity of movement away from combat, The randomness with which character abilities seem to simply not work... etc etc, all ad up to make the game difficult to play. And not so much fun.
TL;DR: Horrible UI, terrible sound, and mouse stuttering mar what could otherwise be a deep and fun Roguelike.
Review:
This one of those "Meh" games. I dont want to thumbs down it, but neither is it good enough in its current state to recommend it. I'm a die hard real Roguelike fan, and as much as I wanted to like this game, in its current incarnation, the UI, stuttering and sound are so bad its near unplayable.
The graphics look like a 90s indie project, the various char and enemy tiles vary widely in quality and art style And the sound and music, god. I turned the music off the second I could. Its like a 30 second looping one channel track. The sound fx are also bizarre and annoying. Weird shrieks, moans creaks, bangs, ect, all playing on one main channel - sounds like each sound is just a badly sampled wav file.
The UI - it appears to be only be able to be driven with a mouse or arrow keys. But when you play with arrow keys, theres a slight lag from input to execution. When you play with a mouse on fullscreen, the mouse cursor stutters, lags, and jumps all over. Theres no keybinding or numpad availability - and even if youre moving with the keypad, you must use the mouse in menus. This just sucks for a Roguelike A turn based Roguelike shouldnt be forced to use both M+K and for god sakes if youre going to require mouse, make it actually *work*. Also, theres no in game tutorial, only on boot.
It sucks, because with some polishing this game could be really interesting. *Huge* char customization options on a point driven system, lots of magic spells, merchants, items, levels, enemies. I really want to like it, I really do. But its barely playable in its current form,
[/b I have a current "Let's Play" ongoing for Lost Labyrinth:]

Lost Labyrinth is a rogue-like (not rogue-lite) turn based game in which you progress down the labyrinth one floor at a time. Each time you head down floor you lvl up; which grants a single point to put in one of the many attributes. All the attributes are potentially meaningful choices; it really depends on the character you have build and what you want them to do.
There are of ways to build and play your character; no shortage of choices here! Just make certain you have the ability to handle all the threats of the labyrinth: monsters, hunger, thirst, poison, sickness, curses, monster resistances, darkness; you will contend with all that and more; I did say that was a rogue-like.
Most monsters don't move; they just guard their area, blocking you with their blocky ♥♥♥. But keep moving; time is ticking. Each turn you take you are getting hungrier, thirstier, and giving the other monsters time to shoot you, blast you, or just spawn on you (this is their home after all).
As I said, the abilities and attributes you choose and build for really impact gameplay, and you can select most any ability at start; so you can have mages in plate, or fighters dropping fireballs if you want.
If you decide to tank up, strapping on heavy armor and a shield means most physical attacks bounce off you, but you might be slower from all the weight, unless you also really strong; spells will still hurt, but ambushes will be much less deadly. Whereas a traditional mage would be able to blasts targets at distance, or walk through walls, or summon minions, but he can't take the hit.
All in all, this is a really deep game with alot of customization for only $1 (can't believe it thats cheap).
This game has a some good ideas, character creation is unique. A lot of love has been poured into this game and I don't want to take away from the work the creators have put into this, however...
This game has a serious lack of polish, the sounds are amateurish at best, the UI is unfortunately obtuse (I understand it is a complex game so the UI is difficult, however I believe at least some more tooltips could help it.
There is very little visual feedback during combat, the development team being comprised of only programmers definitely shows.
The enemies are completely static.
Overall it has some hope, but in it's current state it feels like an early access game that isn't worth picking up just yet.
>walking along a corridor at level 90 or so
>game over
Ah yes, the ol' instant-death gaze attack, pinnacle of elegant design.
There's also the fact that certain skills are pretty much required to get anywhere, or provide huge benefits compared to their alternatives, and the big selling point of massive build customization goes out of the window. There's not much left at that point.
Note: I've spent a lot of time on this game since the free version has been around for quite a while now.
Oh wow, surprised to see this title on here. I remember being part of the community for the first versions of this game *ages* ago, and personally interacted with the developer quite a bit. He took several of my suggestions and really ran with them.
What I'm saying is that the bad parts are probably my 15-year old self's fault.
Unplayable - game has 2 mouse pointers, neother one works on buttons. (I use windows 7)
I couldn't even get through the character creation screen...
Don't waste your money! ( I already asked for a refund!)
One of the best casual roguelikes available IMHO. Lots of viable character builds (This game shames nearly every other rpg in this aspect actually), and the random levels ensure no two playthroughs are the same. The non-extended version is available free from the developer's site, but I think the game is easily worth $5.
Note: the game doesn't play well with certain desktop resolutions. I originally tried to play with my desktop resolution set at 4k, and the fonts didnt scale correctly. Switched to 1080p and everything was fine. Minor quibble.
I really like the game Dungeons of Dredmor but I also wanted a game that was just a tad more serious. The avatars that you can pick from are still cute so its not too serious. Another reviewer said the artwork wasn't consistent and that's so true. It's like a hodge podge. The detailed character creation is one of the game's high points. The game is fun playing with another person. Playing with another person reminded me of playing a speedier version of the classic Dungeons and Dragons board game because it's turn based. Worrying about food and water makes the game tough. There's even an option for being a vegetarian (if you choose this character 'quirk' in the character creation). I also like the little details in the graphics too such as 'arcane arrow' animated as a purple bolt. But it's true that it's kind of buggy. Still worth the 5 bucks.
The game lacks soul.
The thing about games like these is that they can play as basic as this one, and still be good, but that basic gameplay needs excellent presentation.
There is no excellent presentation here.
The various arts shown within the first 10 minutes clash and distract attention. And make me uncomfortable besides.
The thing that drew me to this game was the screencap of the equipment/inventory screen. I love stuff like that. If the whole game had had that aesthetic... well I still wouldn't of liked it but at least it would've been charming.
The presentation in this game is awful: the graphics are all different styles and often have nasty looking borders round them. It gives the appearence of a game from the early 90s. There's low res pictures with visible jpg artifacts in them and the music is repetitive as heck.
Having said that the game itself seems like it could be a good one: there's certainly a lot of scope for customizing your character at the start and there's a lot of spells in the game.
If you wonder why you can only see the square you're in when you start, I think it's dark: you need to cast a spell of light of some kind (there's more than one).
Will write more after having played more.
This really appeals to me.
If, like me, the most enjoyable part of a Dungeon crawler [or any good RPG] is the act of making your own unique character, then this game is for you. Want to be hand to hand combat only warrior? Sword and shield, or two handed axe? Take your pick. How about a crack shot bow wielder? A sneaky back stabbing assassin? Or a Fire Mage? Water? Air, Earth, Death, Blood, Acrane, White, Druid, Death, Witch, Warlock, Paladin, Summoner….
The variations are vast, and give the game a lot of replay value. And it only cost me £3 :)
The game play itself does appear to be very basic at first [just walking through narrow corridors until you meet a creature, with no AI to speak of. But the game does open up with new features introduced after the first few levels. And there is surprising depth here.
And MULTIPLAYER! Yes, I have not tried this, but I can imagine it being great fun with a friend or two.
I did not notice any bugs or experience any issues with the game at all. Perhaps those have been ironed out by now.
Admittedly, the graphics and interface are very basic [but functional]. I would love to be able to install some better tile sets, I think the game would really benefit from that. You can install some custom dungeons too. The game has a lot of potential if modders decide to add things.
All in all, well worth the price.
Positive Aspects
Great replay value.
Fun to play.
You can choose from a wide variety of both strengths and weaknesses.
Classless character generation allows you to create a very custom character.
Talents are balanced.
You can choose to have permadeath or not.
You can play up to for characters by yourself or hotseat with friends.
Developers are responsive and trying to make the game better.
The few bugs that are in it are quickly being fixed.
Neutral Aspects
Music is catchy if a bit repetative.
Taking a weakness often banns you from taking anything that could counteract that weakness.
Things like food and water are really important, forcing you to use precious character points to address those issues.
Potentially Negative Aspects
Its graphics are simple and inconsistant.
Has a funky lighting system where characters in a multi-player game don't share illumination.
Overall I really like this game. Try it - it is only $5 and well worth the price if you like this type of game.
A very deep character customization sets you up for extreme replayability in a hardcore roguelike. Play it on full-screen and you are good-to-go. If you have set it on stretched window use the hotkeys to navigate to the video settings (press alt to see hotkeys in the menu)
You can also change the settings in the settings.txt in the game folder. Go to the game properties in steam -> local files -> browse local files -> settings.txt
Very buggy. Mouse does not work in Full Screen Stretched mode, Fonts are huge, impossible to read or do anything without much trouble.
While the game is novel, it does have some issues. Windowing to be able to use the mouse is one, while occasional crashes, especially after you took 20 minutes making a character, can be quite annoying.
The game does hold promise as an idea; I really do love the character creator and the depth you can go with it, though I'm sure it ends up in cookie cutter designs eventually, there would be quite a few winning combinations to be sure. The maze layout randomness is nice, and so is the choice of 1-4 characters and permadeath if you're into that. But I seem to spend more time making characters than playing the Labyrinth, but this might be a personal thing.
I'd say buy at your own risk, it might be right up your alley, or it may fall flat. I'd like to see the game tinkered with some more, personally. But there's a huge amount of promise.
Note: I played the free version quite a bit several months ago, before it hit Steam.
This is one of the better rogue-ish games in my opinion. It has permadeath if you want it, but you can also start a non-permadeath game and save any time. I wish all roguelikes had this option. I'd buy a lot more of them.
The UI is rather awkward, and the graphics very simple, but it has a ton of skills and even has multiplayer, which can be used to create a party to play by yourself.
My only real complaint is that hunger and thirst are a little too intrusive. It feels like every minute or two I need to eat or drink. And on my current game (level 6) I'm completely out of food and "very hungry". This could be a virtual permadeath situation if I can't find food soon.
It's easily worth the five bucks.
This turn-based procedurally generated RPG offers a HUGE bang for your buck!
Watch my impressions and Review video right here:

The ability to play up to 4 players locally (on the same PC), tons of skills to choose from and the freedom to design your hero any way you like make this game one of the better turn based simple RPG's I've seen, especially for the low price.
Any turn based dungeon crawl fan should not miss this one!
A definite and enthusiastic thumbs up!
