Product Description

From Amazon.com

Scourge of Worlds: A Dungeons and Dragons Adventure is not a film sequel to Dungeons and Dragons (2000), but the DVD equivalent of an interactive role-playing novel. There are over 900 short digitally animated sequences, leading every so often to a choice to be made with the remote control, resulting after about 90 minutes in one of four possible endings. Just as the original D&D was inspired by The Lord of the Rings, the scenarios here are Tolkien rehashed: a newly arisen darkness is seeking an ancient ultimate weapon, against which stand a human warrior, Regdar; a halfling, Lidda; and an elven wizard, Mialee. The CGI is closer to Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles than the pseudo-realism of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, the electronic score is tiresome and the contemporary voice acting, using such expressions as "heads up" and "…or something," is laughable.

What of the interactive element? Essentially it offers two equally uninteresting paths at the end of every major scene--uninteresting because it's impossible to care what happens to the marionette-like stereotypes no matter what they do. While the adventure does offer plenty of well-choreographed cartoon-style action, interacting with Scourge of Worlds is ultimately about as much fun as watching someone else play a computer game--and that's just the first time through. --Gary S. Dalkin

3.0 out of 5 stars It's entertaining, at least, Jul 6 2004
By Jeffrey M Ventura (Fair Oaks, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Scourge of Worlds: ..Adventure (DVD)
I bought this DVD on a whim from an un-named mass-market retailer (rhymes with "wall" and "mart") and thought it'd be an ok movie. And it was.

The computer animation is detailed, but left me with the feeling that it's just not well polished. Either unpolished or polished too much to the point of being dull. The dialogue works, and the plotline is very linear. However, for a bunch of buddies getting together to laugh at a movie that takes itself WAY too seriously it might be kind of fun.

Overall, this movie is like most party favors: best as a rental, but not worth shelling out $20+ for.

1.0 out of 5 stars It's Bad, May 6 2004
This review is from: Scourge of Worlds: ..Adventure (DVD)
While you supposedly have a way of getting other stories, the outcome is the same. Either you die, or you don't, and what happens really doesn't change.

Then there is no background for the characters. You have to care about the characters, BEFORE you can care about whether or not the die. I'm still wondering how the 3 of them ended up together. That was probably an interesting story. This DVD is just bad, I wish I hadn't bought it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Choose your own adventure books come to DVD, Jan 27 2004
By D. de Gruchy (Campbell, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Scourge of Worlds: ..Adventure (DVD)
If you enjoyed those 'Choose your own adventure books' when you were a kid, or your kids read those now, and you like fantasy, this dvd is for you.

As far as games go, its very simple. You watch a small cinematic and then choose what you want the group or character to do from a given menu of options. Thats really it. Don't expect more than that.
The graphics are pretty. The characters personalities are sorta campy, but all in all a pretty good effort.

Supposedly there are 990+ combinations of stories. I have not, nor will I ever see them all. However, that isn't such a bad thing as I can come back to this DVD time and time again and the story will probably change every time.

Its a nice thing to have for game night as it provides a short break from what ever games your group normally plays.

If you like to watch movies more than once, and enjoy choose your own adventure, this is a great dvd for you.
If you expect gripping combat and lots of action, this will not do it for you.
