Scott Hall's Summary:

Fantasy dungeoncrawls with less rules than an RPG, or Diablo: The Board Game.

Go to the full review for more information.

This time figure also doesn't include quests that the heroes lose; my players will usually get beaten once or twice before they're able to figure out how best to win the quest.
Players get beating with just the basic rules? How? If they get a decent combination of characters, they can almost always win without giving the Overlord a chance. And I'm not talking about the first quest alone.
