- 50Slant MagazineSlant MagazineThe Dungeonmaster is little more than a fitfully entertaining calling card meant to showcase Empire’s talented in-house special effects artists and stop-motion animators.
- None of the episodes is especially exciting, and they are all so brief that very little depth can be found in any of them.
- 16Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittChristian Science MonitorDavid SterrittGet cracking, filmmakers. It'll take a lot of doing to beat this creep-show for worst picture of the year. It's about a computer programmer who beats the devil in a series of spooky challenges. No fewer than seven directors worked on it, and it doesn't make any sense at all. [23 May 1985, p.25]
- 0Miami HeraldBill CosfordMiami HeraldBill CosfordThe Dungeonmaster is a low-budget fantasy from 1984 on which no less than seven directors labored, and in vain. Each of the seven took one "sequence" in a series of ill-explained jousts between a computer wizard and a caped character called Mestema, who turns out to be Satan himself. Each of the "sequences" is uniformly shoddy looking. [14 Aug 1985, p.D5]
