Deathtrap
Developer NeocoreGames
Deathtrap is a tower defense/action RPG video game released in 2015 by NeocoreGames for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It shares the gothic fiction setting with NeocoreGames' The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing and features a lone protagonist who is sent to a border world in an alternate dimension ("Ink") to defend a series of ancient strongholds against a horde of monsters invading from the depths of that… From Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0)

unlabelledView post →1989 (age 10)… It wasn't just Transformers I drew, by this age I was enjoying Fighting Fantasy books, particularly Deathtrap Dungeon. I swear that Batman drawing is from a video game? Maybe from something on the Amiga or Atari...? 🧵[13/?…]
unlabelledView post →Gamers are babies. OMD Deathtrap is review bombed for the new barrier limit? Andrew and I immediately come up with kickass 5D chess barrier solutions for each new map. Pacific Drive reviews hate the "unreasonable" save system... but the game saves as you enter each map on your roguelite run...?
unlabelledView post →We didn't often get nice things in game cases when it came to PAL PS1 games, but Deathtrap Dungeon is one of the exceptions. Not only do you get a manual but there is also a wonderfully illustrated bestiary for all the foes and beasties in the game. Might be 'The Knackerer' causing the pain xD

unlabelledView post →Deathtrap Dungeon for the PS1 #RandomGameSaturday I got this for a couple of quid at a wonderful retro game shop in Scarborough called "The Game Pad". Was a really fun game until there is a huge difficulty spike and it's expected to die all the time, still worth a look!

unlabelledView post →I'm going to start every work day from now on by going "Guys, play Orcs Must Die: Deathtrap." It's a good game and if you're into character design, it passes the lineup test. (You can tell everyone apart if you made them mere silhouettes.) It's such a visual treat for me!
unlabelledView post →Game catch up time: I play Ritsuki in Gundam Breakers 4! I’m also Little Moneybags and a bunch of orcs in Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap! Both very fun and very different characters lol Many thanks to my agents Brittney and Erin! 🙏

unlabelledView post →So anyway play Orcs Must Die: Deathtrap you guys. A free expansion is coming this week and I'm so hype. I fully endorsed it because I don't have time to video game so when I game a bit, it has to be good! Get it and then play with your friends! It also has a bear. Mark of a good game.
unlabelledView post →A friend has just reminded us that in 1998 Eidos hired Kelly Brook to promote the Playstation adaptation of Deathtrap Dungeon, and you will have to google that for yourself, didn't help the game from not sucking if I remember correctly but still absolutely peak late 90s UK there
unlabelledView post →I am annoyed that @orcsmustdie.com Deathtrap has launched to mixed reviews on Steam, and that a bunch of the reviews are from people that have played less than an hour. IT'S THE BEST OMD GAME! HOW CAN THESE GAMERS BE SO WRONG?! Anyway, I left a positive review. You nerds should too. Cus it's great.

unlabelledView post →While browsing through old 1997 magazines looking for that specific advertisement, I just remembered this also showed up quite (along with the infamous two-page Deathtrap Dungeon ad). Unlike Mace: The Dark Age, I don't recall ever renting this game.
unlabelledView post →Tried Deathtrap Dungeon briefly. It plays like a clunkier Tomb Raider, or Dragon's Lair if it was an actual video game, but I have a soft-spot for these slow methodical platformers where your character is extremely fragile. Based on a series of books by GW founder Ian Livingstone.
unlabelledView post →I was just remembering seeing Deathtrap in a theater when it first game out and some people freaking the hell out when Christopher Reeve and Michael Caine kissed. And that was in an incredibly liberal city.

unlabelledView post →Back when Sentient Play were trying to fund their game 'Hero of Deathtrap Dungeon' (based on the Fighting Fantasy book) they put out some great artwork. This illustration of Fang is stupendous, it has this wonderful clash of cultures and it's the kind of fantasy location I'd love to know more about.

unlabelledView post →If I was as rich as these people I would be buying up game studios and IPs and having them make games I and no one else wants made. Like a squad and turn based Gex game, A souls like Deathtrap dungeon, or a Drakengard 1 remake.
unlabelledView post →I knew it was a long shot, but I tried to find a gif of Deathtrap Dungeon so I could just say “This game hates everyone.” but for some reason it was just a bunch of random nothing with gifs of Tecmo’s Deception scattered about… I’m very surprised Tecmo’s Deception even has gifs.
unlabelledView post →Tank controls to me on PSX serve more as a great way to peg whether they released before or after the Dualshock controller came out. Deathtrap Dungeon is a pretty bad PSX game that WOULD be better without tank controls, but it also came out the same year the Dualshock launched in NA
