Dungelot
« on: January 22, 2013, 04:53:35 PM »
Hey guys I had a friend tell me about this game called Dungelot

Web Version

I really don't want this to devolve into a "Is this a Roguelike" conversation. Lets just call it a fun game and then everyone can be happy. Its has a lot of interesting design choices, though.

1. The level exploration idea is great, it reminds me of Desktop Dungeons.
2. Shop items (Hearts and Swords) are the same price and each purchase increases the overall cost, making shopping a little more compelling.
3. Consuming spells for HP instead of potions is a good idea too.
4. Finding your stash on levels you previously died on and getting the monetary value is a cool idea, plus gives a sense of progression as the player realizes they made it as far as they did last game.
5. Works great on my iPad.

I like this game a lot! Didn't realize there was a web version, I've been playing on my Android.

imho it's more <genre> than <modern game considered in genre> but the important part really is that it is in fact a fun game with a nice balance of depth, progression, and challenge
