Alright, so the game play is alright but it's almost too easy, like way too easy. The point of the game is to just make to to the next level and dag gone it it is so easy. If you're looking for a game that is a pixelated but challenging game, don't get this one. The music is very repetitive and it gets very annoying. I know some songs need to be repetitive because they can't just have a whole play list of random songs, but this sounds like atari, like just 1 note played over and over again. This game does have crafting though, but since the game is so easy, you can get filled up to the max supplies easily. The max is 5...5! Like really? Also there are really not that many items to craft at all and there is no degrading of items or armor, so you just keep it forever. If you're looking for a more challenging but slightly more expensive game, go with Pixel Dungeons. It's far more worth your money. Please come out with an update quick.

Instantly addicted to this game. The crafting adds some light and fun strategy to the game, and the differences between the characters keeps each run fresh and interesting. I found I could get sucked into this for a couple hours at a time, but it's also easy to pick up and play for 5 mins while you're waiting for your coffee. Turn off the game, and you can continue right where you left off later. It's geared more for the casual player, so if you're into hardcore Nethack or DCSS, you may find this too shallow. Otherwise, if you're looking for something fun and mildly challenging for your lunch break, you'll enjoy this a lot. Highly recommended for any casual gamer.

This is a fun game that's certainly worth the money. If you like little dungeon crawling games with some item creation, this won't disappoint. Don't expect too crazy much, but it fits the bill to be sure. My only criticism is that as you progress further and things get harder, the materials available don't really change. You basically keep hoping for mythril, but it doesn't seem any more likely the deeper you go. I wish the level of equipment you could make as well as the materials you found would go up. It seems totally random, so you could make a mythril helmet on floor 1 or 20 with equal likeness. Otherwise, well done, devs!
