Jan. 2025

This game is everything i remember from the 1st, and 2nd. Yes it has some bugs, and yes the kind that can end you wave 4 or 5. Sometimes it is frustrating that a 5yr old game still has bugs like these, but this is far better than the rouguelite game they just put out. This game would be a solid 9.8/10 with some bug fixes. 10/10 with some more content. They seem to be focusing DD2 as it's still getting updates and events.

Dec. 2024

Great game, value for money is amazing. spent almost 200 hours in game to date and can happily play 200 more. Has a few bugs that are getting fixed by developers but for a crowd funded game its good.

June 2024

Honestly a good game, not sure what the negative reviews are on about. If you liked DD1 I think you'll like this game!

May 2024

One of my "pandemic lockdown" games in 2020, clocked over 300 hours then. Recently came back, this is a good semi-afk game; once you have your setup running, it involves a lot of semi-AFK farming for equipment. You can watch videos, do some light reading while this runs on another device. There are still a lot of hands-on situations, such as when transitioning to higher difficulties or maximising your push into higher and higher waves. Comparing this to 2018 Dungeon Defenders 2, I like this more. The progression rate feels reasonable. You don't need to pay to expand your stash either. Currently, there is a Steam guide that really helps new/returning players to adjust to the game. I have to clarify the multiplayer is mostly dead, you'll have to play solo most of the time. Progression doesn't seem to require other players (tested in endgame Massacre Survival Hard Core Rifted). In terms of bugs, there are some, but far fewer than it was in 2020. I still don't know how to reduce some of the blinding flashes from certain defense towers, turning down the graphics settings doesn't get rid of it completely (do take note if you're photosensitive). It also gets quite annoying to have to make multiple of the same characters to serve different purposes, for example one Guardian for Owl Perch towers, another for Obelisk towers. This is mainly for endgame though. Note this game also involves a lot of loot, so if you're not used to ARPGs or games with loot filters, that part might suck for you. It would be better if it had an option auto-start timer for solo Survival farming. Also, having an option auto casting for boost monks/apprentice would be useful too.

March 2024

Honestly, this game is underrated. I have way more fun with this than Orcs Must Die, mostly because of the much better progression systems. The maps look great!
