In a mystical land filled with magic and monsters, eager adventurers scour a ten-floor dungeon in search of fame and fortune - if they are able to escape with their lives! But none dare set foot in the tenth floor, as a powerful foe will make sure that they never return to the light of day: the evil Werdna, a wizard who stole an amulet of immense power. Now, to aid a beautiful woman, a group of skilled warriors must descend to the tenth floor to find the woman's lost love, and to take back the amulet from the hands of evil!

Forgettable and bland. Not much going for it other than the legendary Kenji Utsumi voicing a dark wizard. His voice can make any character epic. This is a good example of how bland these older anime can feel when it doesn't compensate its lack of story with memorable action or excitement. There is one really cool frame of bloodied bodies stabbed with swords. I guess that's why the frame is also the thumbnail for the youtube video. Also funny that the youtube copy I watched had appended subtitles explaining each individual spell. Extra points for that level of nerdom. Still a snooze though.
