This is one of those games you see in the game store just sitting on the shelf with a "9.95" sticker on it and think, "I think I might give this a try." For a game of its type, it's top notch. The endless series of caves tomb and labarynths will keep you entertained for hours. Hundreds of Monsters looking to devour you flesh, and lets not forget the guardians. Don't just think this is a hack and slash dungeon crawler though, there are puzzles, and lots of them. In fact the whole game is one big puzzle. For its price I'd recommend it to anyone thats bored of Halo or FFXII.
