Dungeon Punks

I'll be honest - I never planned on playing the game. I got it in Early Access so I could get the bonus for another game by Artix, and I'm glad I decided to play. A fun beat-em-up tag team brawler where you can switch between characters when they get low health. It has the fun and creative lore that makes Artix games special. The art style is great, and it has trading cards that go for quite a bit on the market. The game is relatively short, with only a few levels, but the game is grindy and that adds playtime. Achievements are fairly easy and the game is an overall enjoyable experience. There is one major con, though. The controls are horrendous. I tried multiple key bindings and they all felt akward. I then decided to use a controller, and that made the game WAY better. I recommend this game, and highly recommend that you use a controller.

The gameplay is very repetitive and gets boring really quick. The artstyle conflicts which each other, female NPCs looks like wannabe anime girls from porn newground flash games while males look more like cheap cartoon characters. The monsters are very ugly and are reused too much. The story is really bad. Nothing is good about this game.[/td] [/tr] [/table]

Surprisingly great and entertaining fun. The only real complaint is that I wish that it had access to online multiplayer, but I'd like to think most of us know that's relatively hard to pull off no matter what format you use. It does have couch co-op though, which I think it's great for. Anyways, Dungeon Punks is a semi-RPG side scrolling beat-em-up and it's got a wide variety of classes and ways to play a character. Hit stuff, get loot, level up, hit harder. It's less dependent on loot and more dependent on your level (to a certain extent) so when you level up, you don't feel like you're trying to chase the best gear as well. At the same time, gear makes a pretty big difference, meaning that the improvements in your performance when you level up are well balanced with the improvements you get from equipment. Shame most games seem to forget how to do this these days. I bought this sort of as a thank you to the guys at Artix Entertainment who crafted those pay2win browser flash games that as a kid who wasn't allowed to buy video games, played the absolute heck out of. It's been almost a decade since I last touched one of their browser games so I figured I'd give this a tr…

Much better options available. Funky hit boxes. Tedious. Bugged/Glitched achievements. Gold is worthless. And, Dwarfs do not use magic.

Repetitive. You push the same button to do a triple attack combo. Later on, you can learn three magic spells that recharge via doing enough attacks. Occasionally you'll be able to unleash a special attack by collecting enough of these crystals that increase your rage. And that's it. ...That is it. There are six different characters, but the only difference between them outside of their magic attacks is what they look like, and some of them can only use specific weapons. You can play the game in co-op mode, but that just means you'll be dragging two of your friends to be bored with you as you all walk around mashing the same button, doing the same triple combo, and occasionally doing the same three magic attacks. There's twelve levels. They're all the same design-wise. Walk around on flat fields. Get swarmed by a butt-ton of enemies. Kill them all to advance. NPCs have optional missions that usually amount to "Go find this thing/kill this amount of things/kill this mini-boss." And that's it. The end of the level is a giant monster or a giant thing. You kill it. You win. That's it. The final boss is nothing special. It's just another big thing you gotta kill. And you do. Then yo…

It's meh, not my thing but i think it would be ok for some people
