Valkenburg Castle is a fantasy game about a dungeon in which the players use armies to either capture or defend the castle.[1]
Receptionedit
Jerry Epperson reviewed Valkenburg Castle in The Space Gamer No. 28.[1] Epperson commented that "Valkenburg Castle would be worth the money to a 'hard-core' fantasy gamer; others might do better elsewhere. A lot of good ideas went into this game, but some of them got lost."[1]
John Lambshead reviewed Valkenburg Castle for White Dwarf #21, giving it an overall rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "It has a good solid system on which a gamer can hang his own favourite rules. At the price it must be considered excellent value for money."[2]
In a retrospective review of Valkenburg Castle in Black Gate, John ONeill said "It was an appealing variation on the classic loot-and-scoot dungeon mechanic, with the added bonus of a compelling backstory, a loyal army, and a chance to win back a crown. What's not to like?"[3]
