The value story

The value story

October 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $5.99. Across all 71 discounts in the 9 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 7 weeks apart.

Against its own genre its score lands in the top 1 percent. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Dungeons 2 ($4.99, scores 63) and War for the Overworld ($29.99, scores 59).

$33.40 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

What players say

Good successor to Dungeons 2. It improved on the building aspect and I liked the narrative of the story. It's nothing immensely deep or philosophical, but I had a lot of fun.

Love the game. Plus the jokes told during the campaign really threw me for a surprise. Loved it.
GormagRecommendedafter 82hAug 2026Read on Steam
In my opinion, Dungeons 3 is almost perfect just the way it is. The game stays fun even after hours of playing, and it gets even better when playing in co-op. There is plenty to do: In your own dungeon, you can build and expand rooms, manage production chains, and set up traps, while in the overworld you fight the heroes with your creatures and complete various objectives.
