Puzzle Forge Dungeon

very buggy will often break save files if you craft in a "+" pattern some rooms just randomly don't work the blocking mechanic doesn't always work it's a shame because if it did work i'd lose days to this game

intresting game just sucks if u die then u gotta restart all over again

On PC I didnt got game breaking bugs, just extreamly frustrating ones. So it is playable and cuz the game is a ton of fun by default, i recommend it. Below my initial experience. Playing on Steamdeck. The game has several UI related bugs that can cause game mechanics to break to the point of end a run or brick your save entirely. The game is really fun and works in the campaign and worth the price, but wait until endgame gets fixed. There are some insane ballance issues endgame when it comes to infinite scaling. If dev read this, please tell me how i can send my save from steamdeck so it can be fixed.

This was a fun little game. I enjoyed playing it, and even went back and beat each stage as every character. Took about 15 hours and was worth the coupla bucks I spent on it. Unfortunately, it's also a bit of a one-trick pony. Once I figured out how to get the most out of each 'craft', it didn't really matter what I crafted. I could have optimized my strategy even more if I'd cared about what specific items I was making, but I was getting 'S' scores already and there didn't seem to be a point. In sum; good game, a bit short. Could use some higher difficulty challenges.

This game is a very unique Puzzle Strategy Roguelike. I enjoyed it a lot for the time I have played so far. I still have not killed the boss on the second floor. It is hard to think about where to build the items and what tier of items to make. You also have to consider what the enemy will do the next turn they attack or buff. This game is not easy, but it is fun to think about what to do. There are a lot of characters who have different special effects. I highly recommend trying this game out if you like Puzzle and Roguelikes.

Pretty good. Some thinking along with rng sprinkled with some goofiness.

The gameplay loop feels like the choices I make don't matter, and doesn't feel particularly puzzly. A particular equipment will cost the same number of clicks, regardless of what I make. And it's mostly up to the molds to determine what I make. I also find it confusing that you can get full molds, essentially saving 6 clicks. I don't recall why sometimes molds are filled, other than luck.
