This game is hands down one of the best eShop titles to come this year and is definitely one that you should pick up if you enjoy this type of game. You won’t regret it. | ||

En definitiva, nos encontramos ante uno de los mejores juegos de la eShop en lo que llevamos de año, que hará delicias a los amantes de los RPG de vieja escuela. | ||

Hra na hrdiny The Keep od Čechů je malý, vybroušený klenot... | ||

Pokud vlastníte 3DS a patříte mezi příznivce prastarých RPG a chcete si tu éru připomenout v modernějším pojetí, The Keep je bez debat sázka na jistotu. | ||

The Keep is a breath of fresh air on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, a statement riddled with irony considering the setting of the game. The game brings the classic dungeon crawler role playing game genre and definitely hits all of the right notes. | ||

Through the tiebreak between innovation and control difficulty, The Keep will keep you on your toes. As a dungeon-crawler, it’s once again not a game for everyone, but $12.99 worth superb voiced narration, dialogue, and the atmosphere. | ||

The touch screen combat is intuitive, the difficulty makes every battle interesting, and the levels are expertly crafted by the developers at Cinemax Games. | ||

The Keep is not a game for everyone. But if you have a hankering for a very specific type of RPG and don’t mind taking the time to learn some odd combat systems, The Keep might be just what you need. This game is destined to go down as one of the eShop’s greatest hidden gems. | ||

The Keep is not a manic rampage with 16 different flavours of battle axe exploding from slain enemies. Focused more on adventure than conquest, it hearkens back to the first-person dungeon crawlers of the ‘90s while adding a couple of fresh, touch-based elements. | ||

... the last but not least my reason to say that this is the Darksouls for 3DS is because you will die A LOT, but if you save often and examine each enemy and its weakness you will triumph. | ||

Solidní krokovací dungeon, jenž dobře využívá možností 3DS při ovládání bojů a zejména magie. K dobru mu lze přičíst zábavné souboje a množství pastí i hádanek. | ||

Vzpomínka na staré dobré časy krokovacích dungeonů, která však není jen zábavou pro nostalgiky. Naopak, The Keep je chytlavý a exceluje především díky chytrému ovládání a skvělému systému kouzlení. | ||

... Of course there's a lot of things that could've been better about it, but in the end it's is an enjoyable little retro RPG to play on the go. I give this game 8 giant rats out of 10. | ||

Dungeon crawler fans will notice more and be more accommodating to its features whilst new players will initially struggle but eventually succumb to its charms. I am hoping for a sequel! Job well done. | ||

《The Keep》并不是一款玩家提着大斧冲进迷宫大杀特杀的游戏，它更多的强调探险，而不是征服。游戏将我们带回到了90年代的那种迷宫游戏，同时增加了一些全新的基于触屏的要素。游戏还有其他一些地方也十分具有现代气息：人物的自定义选项、即时存档、快速的库存系统等等。一旦玩家掌握了游戏规则和操作，就能感受到本作的特殊游戏体验了!老式迷宫探索类游戏的粉丝们，一定要感谢设计者们做出了这样一款具有新鲜气息的迷宫游戏！ | ||

The 3D effects in The Keep are spectacular. I felt like I was going to fall into the depth of the dungeon. The Keep is a game for thirteen and older only members of the family. Please keep that in mind. If your looking for an old school first person dungeon crawler on the 3DS/2DS then you need to look at The Keep. | ||

El apartado sonoro del juego es otra de las grandes cosas que tiene The Keep , durante nuestro recorrido por la torre las melodías están llenas de suspenso y emoción, por lo que podríamos encontrar a la vuelta de la esquina o en la siguiente habitación. | ||

Vzhľadom na pomer obsahu a ceny je The Keep výbornou kúpou. Aj bez toho by však bol hrou, po ktorej sa oplatí siahnuť. Dokáže vás vrátiť späť v čase. Ukáže vám, aké zábavné boli dungeon crawler hry a veľmi príjemne prekvapí. Svojou prístupnosťou dokáže presvedčiť aj úplne nových hráčov a tých skúsenejších zas osloví napríklad prepracovaným systémom rún a kúzlenia. Nejaké chyby určite má, no aj tak vás dokáže na 8 hodín príjemne zabaviť, takže nedostatky nakoniec ochotne prehliadnete. | ||

The Keep is a solid dungeon crawler that does not hold your hand at any moment and keeps death lurking around every corner. The challenge presented to players is very enjoyable, with secrets and sidequests that make players explore every corner of the game. There is more than enough content here to keep you busy for several hours, and the perma-death option will appeal to veteran players who want to see what they’re really made off. | ||

Even with its difficulty, The Keep is insanely well put together and really requires you to think about your every move. ... It might not be for everyone, but if you’re hankering for a good old-fashioned dungeon crawler, it’s a Nintendo 3DS eShop game worth checking out. | ||

My favorite part, by far, was the magic system. You literally have eminent domain on how you want to arrange your tokens, which tokens you use, and how to best use them. I might be a bit biased because I’m often the “magic guy” in RPGs, but regardless, it’s a nice spin to the magic skills system found in other RPGs. | ||

... Old school brought up to modern times ... Overall, if you're looking for something to fill the time when you can't be playing something like Dark Souls then you're definitely going to enjoy this at least a little. | ||

El sistema de hechizos puede que sea la parte más curiosa e ingeniosa del juego , puesto que deberemos personalizar nuestro panel rúnico con el que poder optar a los hechizos que queramos utilizar. | ||

The Keep to mała, ale udana próba przeniesienia mało popularnego dzisiaj gatunku na handhelda Nintendo. Dobrze odnajduje się w środowisku japońskiej konsoli i sama w sobie jest przyjemną pozycją. | ||

The Keep ist eine gelungene Hommage an seine offensichtlichen Vorbilder und portiert das Gefühl des einsamen Kämpfers in den dunklen Katakomben gut. Der Rollenspielaspekt mit lediglich drei steigerbaren Attributen ist sehr simpel geraten, aber dafür überzeugt das Kampfsystem. Die Touch-Bedienung geht flott von der Hand und nutzt beide Bildschirme des Handhelds sinnvoll aus. Die etwa zehnstündige Spielzeit geht in Anbetracht des geringen Preises und des Gebotenen vollkommen in Ordnung. Grafik und Musik passen zum düsteren Szenario, sodass Genrefreunde bedenkenlos zugreifen können. | ||

In vielen Belangen fühlt sich das Spiel somit konsequent auf einen sehr speziellen Retro-Geschmack zugescheidert an, den es mit authentischen Elementen gradlinig bedient. | ||

The main game is actually quite lengthy and for that I’d say its worth the $12.99. Just remember you wont get very far unless you have some patience, or you are a legendary dungeon crawling master! Good luck. | ||

... I also enjoyed the graphics of the game; they are overall pretty detailed and in certain areas very defined. The game also looks great with even 3D turned up to its highest setting. I love 3DS games with subtle yet interesting color schemes, and this game is a perfect example of such. | ||

It isn't that The Keep is a 'bad' game by any means. It's just that it's an acquired taste. Sadly for me, these dungeons just didn't taste that sweet. | ||

Graphically speaking, the game is pretty solid. The environements, although a bit drab at times, all are nicely detailed. Magic spells have nice effects and all of the enemies look solid with nice characteristics. Everything looks as it should and the 3D effect, while subtle, is done in a non-invasive way and feels natural. It helps suck you into the game and get lost in all the lore as you explore the world and the creatures within it. | ||
And there are also reviews we are not really proud of. Mainly from reviews which don't like dungeon crawlers at all. :) Show rest of reviews anyway...
