Superb Reimagining!

Pheener

This is a spectacular version of a little-known roguelike that I played growing up, on an old Mac SE. At the ripe old age of 6, I decided that any game that doesn't let you know what scrolls and potions do before you read/quaff was ridiculous, so I never pumped much time into it, but now I have an opportunity to play it all over again, and with great graphics and control. A must-play for classic Mac or PC gamers!


high hopes and disappointment

Played Dungeon of Doom for years (even on a Nook that has been modded to think it is a Mac Plus) - so, was happy to see this. Unfortunately, it does not seem to run on my iPad mini; screens do not fit the mini format and no apparent way to resize. Maybe I am missing something obvious? Bummer


True to original

Update! Yes, on the iPad mini I also had problems with the screen after September 28. Update with the new iPad update and It should solve it. Don't despair! Until you enter... THE Dungeon!


It's ok

The game can get addicting . However I would enjoy it more if there were a shop or some helpful npc.


Love it.

Addicting roguelike, just wish you could add a wait button of some kind to help with my strategy. Just used to having a wait button in roguelikes I play I guess. Little more challenging without it. Still have to give ya 5 stars though.


Love it

This game does exactly what it's supposed to. It is balanced fairly well, and I never encountered bugs. It is a great time killer, and I love the fact that it is not IAP dependent. On the other hand if you were to put in a few other classes for purchases (ninja?) I may pay for that.


Game doesn't work

Downloaded the iPad only version, and I am unable to even name my character and start playing game is trash, please refund!


Fantastic! (but bugs)

THIS is the classic dungeon crawler. Deep enough to be interesting, but simple enough to make a good phone game. Music isn't distracting, graphics are functional (I'd love to see this in b&w!). Gameplay is absolutely great. An ideal balance. There is some kind of bug that causes random "deaths", which is a big problem, but assuming that gets fixed this game is great.


A little buggy but good

Xipey

Good roguelike for the iphone, have experienced a bug that stops me from picking up items for a bit, it goes away after a few moves, but backtracking is annoying especially since it seems enemies respawn. Overall a good game though


Fantastic for "dungeon of doom" fans!

I love this game - if you were a fan of the old Mac game The Dungeon of Doom (later The Dungeon Revealed) then this game will go down real smooth. All the creatures, wands, potions, weapons, and scrolls you remember. Re: the bug another reviewer mentioned, I'm pretty sure that's just if you quaff a floating potion - you can't pick up stuff for a while because you can't reach the ground.
