March 2025
It was a fun game, I got it on sale for $3. My first playthrough took 18.7 hours. Definitely worth more than $3, but I probably wouldn't advise paying more than $20 for it if you can. I enjoyed the combat system. Also, the dungeons at the end of each area had unique and interesting designs, though in some dungeons options to interact with seemed to appear only when backtracking through an area. There are also several hidden areas, which were cool to discover, I know there are still some left so maybe I will do another playthrough at some point.

A decent RPG with very slight roguelike elements. The story and world building is interesting. I really enjoyed it, but I can't recommend it without some caveats. There's just not enough room for experimentation with team bulding with being forced to bring along the main character in every run and not having space for extra units. I mostly only played the same team composition during my playthroughs. Event variety in runs is also a bit lacking and gets repetitive. Other than that, I enjoyed the game fine, it's a fun adventure, but it could have used some extra juice in the form of DLC or an expansion that added content, or a new game plus mode so you could make the main character super OP for fun. There's really no point in putting points in anything other than damage at first, since the other relevant stats can get taken care of by team members. I love the art style, and I'm thrilled the game is being followed up on with a sequel of sorts, even if tower defense is not really my cup of tea, I'm interested because I enjoyed this game enough.

Decent enough game. They did really good for the art, characters and the atmosphere. Gameplay wasn't amazing or awful, just functional. The story as well was kinda meh but the lore building was pretty interesting.

Lovely 2D dungeon crawler with light survival elements. The strongest aspects of the game are its visuals, atmosphere and worldbuilding. The artstyle is fantastic, everything looks gorgeous and detailed, and most characters (from playable to NPCs and enemies) are beautifully designed. The writing is good, and even if the overall story is not something super special or unique, it's still above average because the dialogue is well written. What really kept me engaged though, were the tons of interesting characters that appear throughout the story. The effort put into the lore of the game's world is also very impressive. Sometimes you'll have to make decisions that will actually affect some of the characters storylines, unique items you unlock and the ending you get. The game absolutely does not deserve the current "mixed" review score. I see a lot of players giving it a negative review just because, in their opinion, this is not as good as other games from the same genre, which I don't think is fair at all. This game might not be the best of its kind, but it's still a good game, with a lot of love put into it.

i played while not having experienced darkest dungeons. i read there were lot of issues when the game first launched, but as i played this on august 2024, no particular balance or RNG issues (game was a bit on the easy side, i played on normal). i had fun playing this, really liked that the devs put extra arts to go with the different costumes (the columbo and sailor moon were funny).
