Time once again for the GBAtemp book game club. The quick overview is each go around a game is suggested by us and then discussed by those that wish to join in. It should be noted that this is no top ? games list (although such games certainly feature) as the suggestions can arise on the basis of a great mechanic, a great theme, something of note within the industry (a swansong or something) or something along those lines. On occasion things are mixed up a bit by way of additional criteria or we try a special feature but for the most part commercial games, homebrew, rom hacks or otherwise from one of the systems we cover will have a rom hack, homebrew title or commercial game will be selected.
#25- The Dark Spire (NDS)
At the risk of having this series covering the best of DS dungeon crawlers this week we have a The Dark Spire from developers Success. Something of a throwback to the wizardry series and games of that era but with a DS twist (if you want it though there is a 286 emulation style mode). Depending on how you like your games it might serve to scan a game mechanics list/FAQ as there are a lot of stats (it is on the way to being a roguelike).
Classic game room review.
