Popup Dungeon

I'm going through my backlog 15 minutes at a time, so keep that in mind, I only gave this game it's 15 minutes, and that's what the review is based on. It's not bad. However, it's not great, either. It seems like there is fun to be had, but the tutorial was kind of a slog that had me doing the same thing for literally 15 minutes and maybe more had I continued on. Otherwise, though, the gameplay was good, the graphics were exactly what I'd expect for this style of game, and the controls weren't anything outrageously hard to grasp. If I could give it a number, I'd say 3/5, but with thumbs up or down, I'll give it a thumbs up because I think it's probably a better game than the first 15 minutes show.

a terrible game you basicly have to make the game yourself

It took 11hrs for me to decide. It grows on you, maybe not for everyone. Good cheap game.

-Had to get around some sort of known bug where you need to disable syncing to even run the game -Selection can be clunky, easy to pick the wrong spot for movement or attacks -No sort of character progression through the levels -Unreasonably hard in a lot of areas -Dull. Feels like the same thing over and over.

really good

Popup Dungeon is a 1-player D&D campaign. Played a little and put it down in 1.2 hours using a mouse. Difficulty can be set in game. You play as an assortment of cardboard cutout characters, taking turns going through simple maps beating up baddies in a classic 'tabletop' dungeon-crawling, rpg adventure. It's got everything D&D players might like: rolling for initiative, checking out unknown dungeon rooms, a wizard, a doom voice egging you on. Except unlike other campaigns, this one is without friends and you're expected to die repeatedly (the 'rogue-lite' aspect of it), to get better to try again. The game's got charm and tons of customizable things. The enemy art is pretty cool, and - while annoying squeaky - I liked the tutorial bat. I played the tutorial, then a bit of a tower romp with Blade, a corgi, and a cat. There were wins to be had. Guess the main downside I saw was how long each floor is. Next to that is the cardboard cutouts. I get it's quirky and niche nostalgia, but why do the enemies have really good art on bases while the characters look like folded together printouts meshed with UPS packages? Didn't encounter any major bugs, but at the same time I didn't play nearly long enough. While this game has potential and I did have some fun playing, I'm putting it down prematurely for other games. This is the sort of game that doesn't quite grab you and sort of sits in the closet of your game playlist waiting for a steam roulette to pick up for you until you've got a moment. I'll probably be back to romp again?

[h1]Great game![/h1] I think this is one of the best games that I have ever played. This game is the definition of TRUE customization. You can literally create and customize everything you want: skills, characters, weapons, dialogues, you can even create whole campaigns. The best part is that you can add your own textures almost to everything. If you like creating stuff like these, then this game is definetly worth a shot. Final rate 10/10
