About This Game

Lost Labyrinth is a coffeebreak dungeon crawling game!



The Labyrinth was more than a dungeon. It was the crowning achievement of the necromancer Mythrax, who wielded the Staff of the Covenant to bring dead stone to life and shape it by his will to form the most impenetrable fortress ever constructed.

Then Mythrax vanished. For years, the traps and spells that guarded the Labyrinth kept it just as Mythrax intended. As they broke down, wildlife and bandits sought a haven in the upper levels, even as long-imprisoned monsters broke free from the depths.

Now the Prince of Ulther has recovered an ancient scroll which suggests the Staff of the Covenant was broken during the construction of the Labyrinth, leaving the pieces still inside. Soon a wave of heroes will brave the Labyrinth, seeking the staff along with other unbelievable treasures deep within.


You are one of these brave heroes that travel to the Lost Laybrinth. Hopefully your skills and equipment will be good enough to survive this dungeon. There are dangerous monsters down there, fierce traps, and loads of gold. You will need Light and you will need Food and Water.

The dungeon can be completed by either collecting all 9 parts of the staff of the last covenant or by reaching level 150. Each part is hidden in a different room of the dungeon. One every 10 levels. Sometimes guarded by big monsters.

Compared to other games of its kind it has the following features:

  • Relatively short gameplay (between 10-40 Minutes)
  • Very high replayability because everything is created at random!
  • Many different skills to choose from (every player needs another tactic!)
  • No experience gain for killing monsters (only for reaching new levels!)
  • Zelda like graphics
  • Smooth scrolling
  • Up to 4 players at the same machine
  • Control with mouse, keyboard and joystick
  • Versions for Windows and Linux
  • Online Highscore
  • English, German, Spanish, French, Norwegian, Hungarian, Polish and Chinese

While the game is novel, it does have some issues. Windowing to be able to use the mouse is one, while occasional crashes, especially after you took 20 minutes making a character, can be quite annoying. The game does hold promise as an idea; I really do love the character creator and the depth you can go with it, though I'm sure it ends up in cookie cutter designs eventually, there would be quite a few winning combinations to be sure. The maze layout randomness is nice, and so is the choice of 1-4 characters and permadeath if you're into that. But I seem to spend more time making characters than playing the Labyrinth, but this might be a personal thing. I'd say buy at your own risk, it might be right up your alley, or it may fall flat. I'd like to see the game tinkered with some more, personally. But there's a huge amount of promise.

Note: I played the free version quite a bit several months ago, before it hit Steam. This is one of the better rogue-ish games in my opinion. It has permadeath if you want it, but you can also start a non-permadeath game and save any time. I wish all roguelikes had this option. I'd buy a lot more of them. The UI is rather awkward, and the graphics very simple, but it has a ton of skills and even has multiplayer, which can be used to create a party to play by yourself. My only real complaint is that hunger and thirst are a little too intrusive. It feels like every minute or two I need to eat or drink. And on my current game (level 6) I'm completely out of food and "very hungry". This could be a virtual permadeath situation if I can't find food soon. It's easily worth the five bucks.

Very buggy. Mouse does not work in Full Screen Stretched mode, Fonts are huge, impossible to read or do anything without much trouble.

Positive Aspects Great replay value. Fun to play. You can choose from a wide variety of both strengths and weaknesses. Classless character generation allows you to create a very custom character. Talents are balanced. You can choose to have permadeath or not. You can play up to for characters by yourself or hotseat with friends. Developers are responsive and trying to make the game better. The few bugs that are in it are quickly being fixed. Neutral Aspects Music is catchy if a bit repetative. Taking a weakness often banns you from taking anything that could counteract that weakness. Things like food and water are really important, forcing you to use precious character points to address those issues. Potentially Negative Aspects Its graphics are simple and inconsistant. Has a funky lighting system where characters in a multi-player game don't share illumination. Overall I really like this game. Try it - it is only $5 and well worth the price if you l...

A very deep character customization sets you up for extreme replayability in a hardcore roguelike. Play it on full-screen and you are good-to-go. If you have set it on stretched window use the hotkeys to navigate to the video settings (press alt to see hotkeys in the menu) You can also change the settings in the settings.txt in the game folder. Go to the game properties in steam -> local files -> browse local files -> settings.txt

This turn-based procedurally generated RPG offers a HUGE bang for your buck! Watch my impressions and Review video right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEMHprvpA2s The ability to play up to 4 players locally (on the same PC), tons of skills to choose from and the freedom to design your hero any way you like make this game one of the better turn based simple RPG's I've seen, especially for the low price. Any turn based dungeon crawl fan should not miss this one! A definite and enthusiastic thumbs up!

This really appeals to me. If, like me, the most enjoyable part of a Dungeon crawler [or any good RPG] is the act of making your own unique character, then this game is for you. Want to be hand to hand combat only warrior? Sword and shield, or two handed axe? Take your pick. How about a crack shot bow wielder? A sneaky back stabbing assassin? Or a Fire Mage? Water? Air, Earth, Death, Blood, Acrane, White, Druid, Death, Witch, Warlock, Paladin, Summoner…. The variations are vast, and give the game a lot of replay value. And it only cost me £3 :) The game play itself does appear to be very basic at first [just walking through narrow corridors until you meet a creature, with no AI to speak of. But the game does open up with new features introduced after the first few levels. And there is surprising depth here. And MULTIPLAYER! Yes, I have not tried this, but I can imagine it being great fun with a friend or two. I did not notice any bugs or experience any issues with the game...

Unplayable - game has 2 mouse pointers, neother one works on buttons. (I use windows 7) I couldn't even get through the character creation screen... Don't waste your money! ( I already asked for a refund!)

One of the best casual roguelikes available IMHO. Lots of viable character builds (This game shames nearly every other rpg in this aspect actually), and the random levels ensure no two playthroughs are the same. The non-extended version is available free from the developer's site, but I think the game is easily worth $5. Note: the game doesn't play well with certain desktop resolutions. I originally tried to play with my desktop resolution set at 4k, and the fonts didnt scale correctly. Switched to 1080p and everything was fine. Minor quibble.

I really like the game Dungeons of Dredmor but I also wanted a game that was just a tad more serious. The avatars that you can pick from are still cute so its not too serious. Another reviewer said the artwork wasn't consistent and that's so true. It's like a hodge podge. The detailed character creation is one of the game's high points. The game is fun playing with another person. Playing with another person reminded me of playing a speedier version of the classic Dungeons and Dragons board game because it's turn based. Worrying about food and water makes the game tough. There's even an option for being a vegetarian (if you choose this character 'quirk' in the character creation). I also like the little details in the graphics too such as 'arcane arrow' animated as a purple bolt. But it's true that it's kind of buggy. Still worth the 5 bucks.
