Trolls, Goblins and Imps..oh my
Firefly Studio's Dungeon Hero is being billed as the first dungeon-based game to realistically depict underground life and will be released on PC and Xbox 360 at some point in 2009.
According to the developer, 'Dungeon Hero promises all the danger, intrigue and daily routine of an actual subterranean community. Combining HD graphics with incredibly detailed environments completely immerses players in their newfound surroundings, complete with goblin cheese merchants, jailed troll miners and helpful imps just looking for peace.'
"Dungeon Hero sets itself apart from every dungeon game that has come before it," said Rick Stults, Console Chief for Gamecock Media Group. "We love the realism that the game portrays, the living breathing dungeon aspect is something unique that hasn't been done anywhere before and that’s the key to the innovation we’re looking to promote."
The in-game world will be a totally functional, living, breathing community in every way where you can eat, sleep, chat, socialise, trade and travel as you would in any civilised place. They'll be close quarters combat against a multitude of enemies and the battles will apparently be savage encounters.
