I'm not sure if it's been posted in a topic or not, but there's a pretty kind review of us on Just-RPG.com.

Added to the list.
There's a thread, but the title didn't have 'review' in it
so it didn't come up.
Thanks.

Just my luck, this - I finally get round to writing that review of DROD:AE and the forums go down for upgrading so I can't tell you all about it :)

Anyways, in all its glory: DROD:AE on Reloaded.org

I actually found that doing Google out of boredom. My only gripe is that it's called The City Beneath, not Below.

And now, I present to you, the other product of my googly explorations, DROD on Gamefaqs!

CLICKY!!!

I already new of GameFAQs. They have a seperate one for JtRH. IIRC, I was the one who told them that DROD and Deadly Rooms of Death are the same thing.

Can I be picky and ask you to spell my name BeefontheBone? It freaks me out with the extra capitals for some reason.

I fear that my recent creation of the "Press Clippings" board will make this Master List topic redundant. My apologies. It was quite useful in locating the existing press mention topics to move them.

I found a user review on IGN.com. The review is here. Not sure where else to post this, so I posted on this thread.

Keep posting,

It is not a meloncat.

It is Limecat.

And Limecat is not amused.

It looks like the gamefaqs.com review moved to http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/review/R101498.html as the old link doesn't work. Meh, too many typos in that one anyway even if they do give it a 10/10.

Well they got part of it wrong, because you turn with Q and W, not Q and E.

And they spely Halph Harth. Perhaps they were reviewing Fire Emblem at the same time?

And they've already made the KDD remake and Perfection.

Someone should give GameFAQs a slap of sense.

Which is actually not the best thing to do... someone should give the person that wrote that review and posted it on GameFAQs a slap of sense.

Do you want me to come in with a troll review in order to give us some legitimacy? (Yadda yadda, terrible game, yadda yadda, ten-year old graphics, yadda yadda, too hard, yadda yadda 9/10).
