Best SNES Dungeon Crawler?

[4ppleseed]

Hi guys, looking for a really good Dungeon Crawler to play. Either something that really defines the genre perfectly or something that's really interesting and turns it on its head.

Any recommendations, greatly appreciated

Are we talking 'dungeon crawler' as in Dungeon Master (SNES) and/or Double Dungeons (PCE),
or 'dungeon crawler' as in Final Fantasy III, Lufia, or Breath of Fire (all SNES)?

When I hear the term I think of something like Fatal Labyrinth for the Genesis. Is there something like that for the SNES?

1st person perspective, like Dungeon Master please.

That looks pretty cool but I'm looking for the best/most interesting 1st person Dungeon Crawler on the SNES

Dungeon Master for the SNES




I think there was a sequel for it as well, but on the Sega CD..

You might also want to look into Drakkhen. It's an SNES first-person dungeon crawler, but the view is positioned behind the party as they travel.

I had a lot of fun with Arcana for SNES back in the day. My brother recently beat it again.

There's also the port of Eye of the Beholder:





I'm not sure how it compares to the other platforms it was released on, but you might be interested in it.

Orbitus might also interest you:





There were also ports of Might & Magic II (not in the US I think) and Might & Magic III (only in the US), as well as several Wizardry games, though most didn't get a US release from what I've read. Hope this helps.

The 2 roguelikes are in Japanese, but have been translated. Since it's my favorite type of dungeon crawler:
