Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale is not really D&D, so much as it is a weird version of Gauntlet with a few D&D names and labels tacked on. There is nothing to indicate that you are in Daggerdale, as all you see for much of the game are mines, and later the inside of a tower purported to be in Daggerdale. One could just as easily have claimed this game to be Dungeons & Dragons: Shield Lands or Dungeons & Dragons: Sharn, with a few references changed in the cut scenes in order to make the enclosed dungeon environments work in World of Greyhawk or Eberron campaign settings.
