May 2025

I've been looking a long time for a game where you can just crawl through a dungeon. Something like Wizardry, or the first Might and Magic, or Dark Designs. This scratched that itch. I love this game, it is so innovative, yet it keeps it simple. I don't want to get into the details to much, because I think the fun is the discovery, but this is a great dungeon game. I love the exploration and the intricate dungeons. This is no FF13. The main complaints I saw about this game when I read reviews before buying had to do with some statuses and tough enemy encounters. As you traverse the map, it will become obvious which encounters are tough and probably above your head. If you take on the challenge, reap the reward or perish. As far as getting hit with some bad statuses, you have the choice weather to protect your party or risk going without protection. I can't feel bad for the reviewers who disliked the game after taking a risk and getting burned.

This is a hidden gem of a game, it tinkers around with the common tropes of RPGs in a refreshing way: No heavy-hitting story-- there is just one paragraph and a challenge: get through the dungeon maze. No random encounters-- you see the encounters on the map, you can view your battle log to see what monsters you'll face within said encounter so you can change your gear load out appropriately before you fight. No traditional "side quests"-- the side quests come in the form of riddles, math puzzles, and "x marks the spot" style treasure hunting that you have to solve in order to obtain the reward, which is usually a new unique item or character. No drawn-out combats with flashy animations that you watch several hundred times during your play through-- static images represent the characters, you get in, you get out, and on to the next thing. Combat is somewhat like a puzzle to solve in and of itself-- because some monsters have different defenses or immunities, you have to mix-and-match physical and magic AND/OR melee and ranged attacks in order to defeat enemies. You get abilities that allow you to manipulate your dungeon crawling-- you can warp around squares, hop over squares, warp up a dungeon level, warp down a dungeon level, etc. It gives you options to get around obstacles, which is always fun. The only downside is the production value. It feels on the cheap side. But I **REALLY** appreciate that a developer had the cajones to make an RPG that leaned heavily on the mechanics of their game rather than the writing and aesthetic, which is the more popular thing to do nowadays.

Great game to pick up and put down. No story and just fights. Mechanics are challenging. Hope SE makes more games like this!

Jan. 2025

It's a great dungeon crawler that feels like it hates you at times, but everything about it is thoughtful and well made. The friction here serves a purpose, unlike a lot of RPGs that just waste your time and pad everything out with busywork.

Sept. 2024

Dungeon Encounters is very bare-bones and minimalist, but that just means that the parts that remain are done well.
