Not a D&D fan....but
This game is so good. I bought for a couple bucks and played it just to kill some time.... I ended up doing 2 playthroughs in one week And bought it for the switch. This has to be the most underrated game on the internet.

RPG that does not take itself seriously
Unepic is an RPG with the complexity of old school D&D hack & slash adventure, and the humour of a high school nerd. Yet, it works, mainly because the game does not take itself seriously. You play the unlikely (un-epic) hero, who, by using references to movies, (computer) games and books, confuses the “more serious” evil in the game world. It is fun to hear the evil possessing spirit stumble over words of friendship before realizing the plan was the outright murder the player. In terms of gameplay, you adventure through a linear and long dungeon, hack in 2D monsters and fight boss monsters using magic and potions. Sharp swords do additional damage to living creatures, bludgeoning maces hit skeletons hard, and frost magic freezes fire elementals. You gain levels with experience, gain skill points each level, and add those to skills to get more proficient (more damage, use higher level gear). You buy spells from gold, starting with a fire bolt, upgrade to improved firebolt and end with advanced firebolt. You make potions from monster remains. Nothing is excitingly new. Yet, the game keeps entertaining. There is little to no frustrating platforming. The variety of places and monsters keep the game fresh and you, as player, interesting in what is next? Yokes may lack sophistication and can be straight up vulgar (nerdy sex humour), but it keeps the tone of the game light. My only complains are that the game can be boring if played for too long session, maybe it is even too long for its own good (30+ hours to complete)? And similarly, it does have little replay value.

UNDEAD?
This game loves to tease the RPG genre. it is full of humor "It´s a trap!" and silly quests " I need to have sex with what?" that just want you to go in for more. it is not a game that needs a lot of quick phase movements. this game is for people who like to relax and have a good laugh. ^^ I recommend it highly, because of the humor it self. injoy or not its up to you, and your wallet. ^^

Quite interesting, but can get tedious
Im somewhat on the fence about this one. It is an interesting metroidvania, has deep RPG mechanics, nice 2d style and plenty of places to explore. The story and humour here are very much for nerds. Can be crude. If you are not using a controller, you will probably not like the controls. Even then not everything is smooth. I havent played that much, but I already encountered situations where I need to backtrack a lot, run around back and forth and even do some grinding. There are elements of trial and error as well. Its interesting, has a lot of charm in its style, but its not for everyone. Those who like old school and can handle some tedium will enjoy it.

Decent little game
It's a decent little game but there are a few problems with it. Why are the characters so tiny on the screen? It looks like a little ant in an ant colony. Second no native controller support. You have to go through a mapping utility and map the keyboard controls and even then, it doesn't feel quite right. Pushing up to jump? Who came up with this bright idea? Every time I try to push up to go up a ladder, if I'm not perfectly under it, my character ends up jumping. Like I said, who came up with this not so bright idea? Third, the characters are pretty unlikable and the humor is very dry and unwitty.
