A competent little Roguelite

Better than I expected for the price. It appears to be made by an Asian outfit, so the translations can be a little bit Engrish-y, but in a way it sort of adds to the charm. It's not a humorous game, but it's also not one that takes itself too seriously. Unlocking characters seems to be pretty excessively grind focused (is that a platinum symbol? As in I need 5000 thousands gold pieces???), but the starting character is a great all-rounder and you can unlock a dedicated mage character fairly easily. Roguelite elements mostly consist of being able to spend gold on permanent upgrades (extra XP from kills, extra gold from pickups and so on), starting the game with some items, or starting the game with a god's favor. The gods all change the game to favor a particular playstyle, and have to be found in the dungeon as statues before you can use them in subsequent runs. I can't say much about the game's balance, and I wouldn't expect any balance issues to get fixed if they exist, but it's a pretty good value for the money and I lost almost four hours to this game without hardly a blink. The only way to make this game better would be to make it mobile-friendly. I'd love to have this on my little Chromebook :(

Nice, fast game

Nice game for a quick run, it may turn into a longer play if lucky.

Old Flash game aged mediocrely

Probably too old for some of those reading this, but this is very reminiscent of a certain age of flash games of Kongregate or Armored Games during ~2010 in both style, gameplay, and polish. The one I recall the closest would be Dungelot which upon checking wiki for its spelling actually references this game and vise versa. So not exactly original material even back then. It actually has a decent bit more strategy than some reviewers suggest (Dungelot was a lot simplier), but still meant to be very easy to pick up and play through. That said, most times you'll be just dual wielding max str (save to meet req. for valuable equips) with +hit equips and using skills whenever you can. Still a generally decent game but hasn't aged too well or badly. However, it also has some really odd decisions that set it back. Gold is kept exactly as is in the dungeon and exiting, making using gold unattractive as it'll slow down your meta progression. It has most of its tutorial... on random tiles as you progress through the dungeon. Some of which useful even at the beginning. Similar to hiding valuable info on loading screens but arguably worse. Right click isn't as universal as it should be, with many tiles not having it and some things are triggered by it. Full heal on lvl up is a staple but isn't too fitting for survival games and unlike desktop, you can't easily plan for it. Many things are really really expensive and while you get a lot more gold later on, these items and unlocks should probably hide themselves until you are comfortable seeing their prices.

Fun minimalist dungeon diving game

You can kill 10 minutes, or spend an hour grind. This is not a title that demands much from the player. it is fun thoug, and challenging enough to be worth replaying.

advanced form of minesweaper

it is a buggy mess. the attack values of monsters does not always match. a monster had 14 attack and did 26 damage. there is never enough money to buy good equipment. even at maximum hp you might get one hit killed by a random enemy.
