Evaluation
Deathtrap Dungeon: The Interactive Video Adventure released on April 30, 2020. The only developer communication on record is a pre-launch welcome post from November 14, 2019, which mentioned plans to discuss potential features like a simpler combat system, save games, and subtitles during an Early Access period. However, the game launched directly into its full release (not Early Access), and there have been no developer posts since that pre-launch announcement — no updates, patches, DLC, or roadmaps. The store description presents the game as a self-contained interactive video experience with nearly 5 hours of video content, with no mention of ongoing updates or future content. There is no DLC listed and no evidence of any post-launch development activity. The game appears to have shipped as a finished product and received no further content after its release date.

About this game
Deathtrap Dungeon is an interactive video realisation of Ian Livingstone's multi-million selling classic gamebook starring Eddie Marsan (Fast & Furious presents Hobbes & Shaw, Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde) as narrator.
Presented in a similar way to the BBC's Jackanory/Bedtime Stories, or Jim Henson's Storyteller series, the game features nearly 5 hours of video and takes the player through the devious labyrinth of Baron Sukumvit, full of tricks, traps and loathsome monsters on a quest to escape the dungeon.
