Smart, funny and hardcore
This is a turn-based game in which every room and every battle is an intelligent, logical challenge. The enemies are some of the most original creatures I have ever seen in a game. For example, The Puffies can't be killed, and they can't kill you, but they can try to suffocate you with their love and block your movement with their hugs. The Tar is a substance that grows until it fills everything - corridors, hallways, rooms. If you try to slice the Tar with your sword, it breaks down into smaller Tar vermin that attack you. You have to find the source of the Tar's sentience, the thing that makes it alive, to stop it from growing. The Brains are helpless enemies that make every other creature in their area of influence smarter. A smart enemy is a real disaster in DROD - but you can still find a way to trap it, to scare it, to bluff or even make it do something in your favour. I'd suggest starting to play from the DROD2, because there you have an actual story, NPC characters with their own agenda that can hamper you or help you, and a companion (your obnoxious nephew who, when he's in the mood, can take simple orders from you). The game requires a lot of patience and diligence. It rewards you with its unique ideas and puzzles, but you really need to be hardcore to make it through the whole game. Sometimes when a hard puzzle seems like a drudgery you just have to rest and come with a fresh mind.
