SoftpediaCosmin VasileJun 20268.5/10Terrinoth: Heroes of Descent is a good dungeon crawler that offers interesting hero archetypes and a variety of challenges to deal with. It becomes a great experience if players manage to recruit three friends, so that everyone can control one hero.

GamesCreedM. HasanJun 20263.6/5Terrinoth: Heroes of Descent doesn’t try to chase realism, but rather embraces a bright fantasy art style, and it works surprisingly well. They’re all different, from old ruins and verdant forests to dark castles and underground crypts. Each has a unique personality.

RPGamerJun 20263/5Based on the popular tabletop game Descent: Journeys in the Dark, Terrinoth: Heroes of Descent manages to capture the mechanical pacing of a physical session. It stands as a technically sound, faithful translation of its roots, but the final product is bogged down by a generic story, wooden voice acting, and flat characters.
