I want a grid based dungeon crawler that isn't Grimrock. Turn-based combat preferred. Recommend me some games

What's your poison? Fantasy, sci-fi, cyberpunk?
Joshua Clark
The Etrian Odyssey series is excellent for the most part.
Nolan Nelson
I don't really care about the setting as long as it's grid movement and turn based combat, no real time shit please
I've heard good things about EO, what's the best one for a newcomer?
Austin James
play classic wizardry
Mason Clark
Zelda 1

>All that detail on the dragon's wing joints
>Half-dragons always ends up with stapled fake wings on their backs
I have nothing else to say since I know nothing about grid-based games, I just like dragons.
Connor Ortiz
If you want to go off the deep end, start with 1 since EO is one of the series that makes it hard to go back to the older games, if only for QoL improvements with each successive game.
If you just want to dip your feet, I'd say go for 3 or 4. 3 is an excellent game, if a little broken. 4 is a bit more polished, but also the shortest and easiest game in a series that prides itself on length and difficulty.

Do not play this game
for some reason they added their own version of those Wizardry ninjas that auto-kill if they crit
Andrew Foster
Thanks for the advice, pally
Xavier Cook
Grimrock 2
Christopher Johnson

Aaron Cruz
>he doesn't like square dancing
Mason Sullivan
I don't! It's fucking awful and cumbersome. I just want simple, turn based combat. I move, they move, I attack, they attack
Nolan Carter
I've been playing first person dungeon crawlers for a long time and the only turn based one I enjoyed was Shining in the Darkness. Etrian Odyssey is good for mapping, but the combat kinda sucks (maybe it was just too difficult for me).

Some suggestions I guess:
The Dark Spire
+Great art
+Awesome music
+Good dungeon design with lots of traps and puzzles
+Its basically Wizardry
-It's basically Wizardry
-Will require configuration of Nintendo DS emulator (MelonDS 0.8 plays it perfectly).
Sword of the Stranger:
+Neat battle system
+Interesting setting
-Dungeon design is large but lacks good puzzles and stuff
-Weeb shit
Elminage Gothic:
+Some damn fine dungeons
+It's Wizardry 1 except there's a lot more of it
-The game hates you and wants you to suffer
Might and Magic Worlds of Xeen:
+Super comfy oldschool RPG
+Absolutely gigantic world filled with stuff
+Feels like some proper high adventure RPGing
-Requires DOSbox to run
-Not very challenging

Why has no one said Grimoire yet?
