Dentist by day, dungeoneer by night, John's dad Hugh has reached the very bottom of Legend Of Grimrock's mountain prison. In the final part of this series, he meets dinosaurs, floaty wizards, checks out walkthroughs, and stumbles upon a rather big baddie. Obviously this edition contains slight spoilers for the end of the game.

Legend Of Grimrock is out in a couple of weeks, via Steam and GOG.com, and anticipation is building. A game that harks back to the glory days of FTL's Dungeon Master is something many would like to get their hands on.
