Dungeon

A dungeon is one of the primary tropes in D&D(Dungeons & Dragons). In RPG terminology it is a closed environment usually having many enemies and treasure. Any respectable dungeon should have at least 8-10 levels with at least 50-100 rooms per level as a minimum. If a dungeon is smaller than this it is a mini-dungeon.

Exploring a dungeon in D&D(Dungeons & Dragons) is fun at an extreme level, providing that you have a good referee.

dungeon

In the world of video-games, a huge area, usually indoors, which houses multiple rooms, puzzles and enemies. The player must navigate his way through the dangerous place and face the dungeon boss (much harder than the regular dungeon enemies), to receive a reward and progress further into the story.

The most famous dungeons are the Legend of Zelda ones, where you can earn a new weapon/item/etc. at some point in the dungeon and you usually face a mini-boss (with difficulty between one of a regular enemy's and the boss's)

Gamer: Finally, I completed that dungeon!
