Dungeon Siege vs Middle-Earth: Shadow of War - The Mobile Game
Dungeon Siege
Dungeon Siege is a classic dungeon crawler that predates the first Torchlight but not the Diablo series. In this game, you play as a humble farmer who sets off across a 3D fantasy world, battling against hordes of enemies as the storyline unfolds. The most interesting part of this game, back in the day, is that it's a dungeon crawling game that is set above ground and surprisingly not in dungeons. In some way, it is more like certain parts of Diablo 2 and also Path of Exile.The game also has an interesting take on loot and inventory management. You'll get a ton of loot as befit a dungeon crawler, but the thing is you have a very limited inventory, even with a pack mule, and no vendors nearby enough to sell your loot to. So, you'll likely end up throwing most stuff on the ground just so you can move on. Dungeon Siege even allows you to assemble up to a party of 8 characters to aid you in your journey.
However, Dungeon Siege is a really old game and as such, the Steam version does have its fair share of glitches. You may experience constant crashes and installation difficulties even if you're running a top-notch desktop set-up. Some players have also mentioned that the ending of the game was cropped off somehow and that this version of the game doesn't include its expansion or a multiplayer option.
All in all, Dungeon Siege is among the top 5 classic dungeon crawlers back in the day and if you are interested to give it a try, you can get the game for as low as $1 during a Steam sale.

The game lets players take assume control of various iconic characters from the original game and, through these characters, players can absolutely annihilate any foe that stands in their path. The game’s combat system is definitely its biggest highlight because it lets players control multiple different characters at the same time and each individual character has access to its own special abilities.

You can even strategize with your friends via a Fellowship and help each other to progress after in the game.
The original Middle Earth: Shadow of War proved itself to be one of the most successful video games of 2017 and this popularity is probably what inspired this mobile-based variant of the game.
