Hi everybody, I've been in a hack and slash and dungeon crawler kick lately. I'm currently working through Dungeon Siege 1 and playing it correctly with a party unlike the idiot child I was years ago.

I remember seeing a Let's Play of a dungeon crawler that I want to check out, but I can't remember the name. It's not on Steam or GOG, it has its own website. It is in the same lineage as Eye of the Beholder, Ultima Underworld, and Legend of Grimrock; First person perspective with one or more party members controlled through a panel seperate from the viewscreen.

A few things that stuck out to me were the persistent town and dungeon, and that characters would age, slow, and die. The game even had traps that would age characters. I can't remember if it had an automap or not. It did have simple polygonal 3D characters and environments, as well as areas you could go underwater.

I remember the Let's Player showing the layout of the dungeon and saying that despite all the time he spent with it, that he's never come close to beating it. The dungeon made Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup look like a trip to the corner 7-Eleven.

I've been trying to find it for the last few days, but shot-in-the-dark genre and image searching didn't work, all I found was Xanadu Next which looks cool. Thank you! :)

Somebody posted about this site recently. You might see if you can find it there. It only covers grid-based FPP games, though, so if the one you're trying to find had free movement like Ultima Underworld, it probably won't help.

Cool site! I checked them all though, and it isn't on there. I think that this game is grid-based. There it is! The game is Demise. Sweet, gonna check it out. Thanks!

you might like batMUD too ?
