This game was the Dark Souls of its day. The book is just as hard if not more so as this game. It's a pretty rare game. And one that is massively overlooked.

[@nathanniesche6380]

The book might be hard, but this game is easily more unforgiving. When you die in the book, you can just flip back to the last page before you died. In this game, dying often means losing several minutes of progress and sometimes even getting kicked back into the last level.

L1,R1, Triangle, Triangle, Square, Circle, R1, L1 The original cheat code on the ps1 that would jump you to any level in the game. After 23 years Idk why I still remember this code. I think I always will. Thanks for posting the vid such a great game.

[@Nicomanism]

This game needs a remake under the BloodBorne engine.

[@supersonico8883]

Tremendo juego, uno de mis juegos favoritos que recuerdo con mucho cariño y nostalgia :') Lo volví a jugar después de 16 años.. :3

[@erickweisz5914]

I love this game i remember playing it when i was growing up i remember renting this game and playing it awww man those were the good old days also with games like mortal kombat mythologies sub zero or dino crisis

[@reppledepple616]

Man, after doing all that - the ending you get….lol perfect, really

[@jfsoloasjd]

Wow, vilket snyggt spel, som påminner om klassiska Tomb Raider! 😃😍😎

[@GameGamer]

Ja jag tyckte också det var snyggt, för sin tid! Själva kontrollerna i spelet påminner väldigt mycket om Tomb Raider, såsom att hänga i kanter och så 🙂 Detta spel var sjukt svårt dock, därför var jag tvungen att köra det på en emulator med save states 😆

[@jfsoloasjd]

@@GameGamer Mm.

[@thegovernor4045]

2:29:43 did you know before you go to the exit there's another passage way that lends to a chest with goodies inside but watch out for the spear trap

[@SanHarris666]

Cara...esse jogo marcou minha infância, infelizmente é um jogo meio esquecido, porém eu achava foda!

[@munkiandtrunktvofficialchannel]

Question for you, is that logo of SCEA & PSX?

[@SunSheepOfLight]

I think this game takes place in either the Middle Ages or early 17th or 18th century but what I don’t understand is why there’s a dinosaur 🦖 down there!

[@dannyhardman9076]

Yeah never mind minotaurs, snake women, huge spiders, blue imps, rat men and skeltons... becuase they were all real 😂😂

[@SunSheepOfLight]

@@dannyhardman9076 Or the fact they were able to build something like this with just shovels and pickaxes ⛏ .

[@AtmonTheExectioner]

This game is based on the fantasy adventure pen and paper book of the same name from Ian Livingston. The fantasy world that the books are set in has stranger things than that. I think Deathtrap Dungeon is book 8 or 9. The first is Warlock Of Firetop Mountain.

[@SunSheepOfLight]

@@AtmonTheExectioner I also don’t understand the ending, A giant imp humping a dead dragon 🐉?

[@AtmonTheExectioner]

@@SunSheepOfLight What can I say...In the Fighting Fantasy books there are some weird comedic moments. Although that specific scene sounds like an original on behalf of the dev team.

[@mariofan587]

Aww, what happened to the PS1 startup that you normally show?

[@GameGamer]

So sorry, but since this was recorded through an emulator, I chose to exlude it 🙁

[@Tisson8891]

Hold up is that Zarok from Medievil doing the narration during opening cutscenes

[@KnottsBear-yTalesPreserved]

Yes it is

[@pseudosanct5253]

i ahd this game growing up and was always so frustrated by how hard it was lmao

[@Scorpios9472]

Hey i've been running into trouble with getting this game to run after the first level Gatehouse, once you complete the level the game is on a black screen for a long period and doesnt seem to transition into the end screen you would expect once you finish the level, is there anyway i can fix this? or if you have a better copy of the game or a solution to my issue id appreciate it greatly also great playthrough :)

[@GameGamer]

Hi! Hmm, I'll do my best to help you :) Wowroms is a very good site for finding PS1 games, I'd start there to look for a Deathtrap Dungeon copy. Let me know if the black screen issue still happens!

[@Scorpios9472]

@@GameGamer I tried the site and downloaded the game from there, to no avail the black screen occurs after i complete the Gatehouse " training level " for the game. I'm hoping this is just the emulator settings and i can easily adjust them if that is the case instead of the iso not working

[@GameGamer]

@@Scorpios9472 Darn it! OK, try the version from a site called coolrom. If you get the same problem, there should be a level skip password for the game, or you could try downloading game saves for the emulators memorycard. Also, let me know if you need help with this :)

[@Scorpios9472]

@@GameGamer I'll try that and i'll let you know, thank you so much for your patience in helping out

[@Scorpios9472]

okay I think my Emulator might be the issue here, the coolrom has not worked either

[@egonjensen7667]

What emulator did you use and where can I get hold of the rom?

[@GameGamer]

I used ePSXe, and downloaded the rom from coolrom :)

[@egonjensen7667]

@@GameGamer I tried to download the rom and I got a trojan warning

[@GameGamer]

@@egonjensen7667 Really? :O I think, depending on what antivirus you have, it will flag a file like this as a trojan, although I'm sure it's not!

[@goonerlee]

Try using Duckstation for the emulator (way way better) and get ya roms from Vimms Lair. Has everything and no worries about viruses.

[@dannyhardman9076]

Mate how can i play this through an emulator, i have searched everywhere

[@fabiomamede624]

Duckstation

[@ryanodonovan9497]

The ending to this game is one of the worst I've ever seen. You fight your way through hordes of hellish creatures and navigate deathly puzzles and routes, all with frustrating controls, physics and difficulty, and all you get for an ending is some pointless twist that Melkor was just a contraption operated by some imp? Where the fuck are the endings for Chaindog and Red Lotus? How better were they with all those riches they won? How did Baron Sukumvit react to his creation finally being conquered? How did Fang's townspeople react? None of this is shown. I've been told that apparently the ending makes sense if you've played the adventure gamebook the game's based on, but I shouldn't have to. It's nothing but a letdown for all the effort the game requires to beat it.

[@RussyPopDnD]

It doesn't make sense contextually to the book, actually. There is no dragon in the book, and once you make it through the final trials you earn the treasure and get to see Baron Sukumvit's shocked face. This was a cheap non-ending

[@ryanodonovan9497]

@keepitsecret-dl1pr I like the game for its creativity and how genuinely scary it is with its dark atmosphere, music and variety of enemies despite the frustrating gameplay. I just wish it showed proper endings for your chosen character rather than some twist that there's no reason to care for.

[@TheJeffman1985]

These graphics did not age well. LOL
