✦ AI summary

Dungeon Island is a roguelike with interesting mechanics like water platforms and resource management that some players find engaging, but it suffers from significant polish issues that undermine the experience. The most consistent complaints center on poor controls that feel unresponsive and cumbersome, confusing UI, rough pixel art with broken auto-tiling, and overall lack of polish that makes basic interactions frustrating. Most players recommend avoiding it unless you're very patient with early-access quality games.

[h1]Before I played Dungeon Island, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

No sorry. i play a lot of games like this and i like them on the whole. This is not one of them i like. opening your bag and doing things can get you killed and half the time you don't know what your doing . So i think i will give this a miss

I only played for ten minutes because it just screams amateur - from the very rough/malformed pixel art, broken auto-tiling, blurry minimap, basic noise generation, broken widescreen support, confusing UI, and more. It's an extremely basic game that lacks any amount of polish.

This game has a lot of merit behind it, such as the water platforms mechanic and the archipelagic setting, but the controls are abysmal and the game is really unpolished and buggy. Controls are a fundamental component to a game, and if they lack in ease of use, smoothness and flow then they can easily turn someone like myself away from it. The controls feel like I'm wrangling movement against the character, like pulling a dog on a leash to the vet. In itself, only 4 directions of movement aren't a bad thing, but when you pair it with an action game format and tell me to fight monsters, while also not giving me an option to automatically sprint is when I have an issue with it. The pause between stopping and moving are also grating to the flow of the game. It would be a lot better if the character just started moving as soon as you pressed the button. I found myself constantly using wrong tools on things like rocks despite pressing the buttons to switch to those tools. I'd expect my choice of tool to be saved when I do something like chop down a tree, but the player character just feels the need to dull his blade on a boulder despite hitting it once with a pickaxe. Make it more obv…

Игра 'Dungeon Island' – это приятный рогалик, который сочетает в себе исследование подземелий, стратегический менеджмент ресурсов и элементы выживания. Геймплей затягивает: каждое прохождение уникально благодаря случайно генерируемым уровням и разнообразному луту. Понравилось, что нужно не просто бежать вперед, рубя все на своем пути, а думать о ресурсах, крафте и грамотном использовании найденных предметов. Графика пиксельная, но выполнена с любовью и вниманием к деталям. Интерфейс интуитивно понятен, хотя в начале может показаться немного перегруженным. Сложность игры вполне приемлемая – нужно немного привыкнуть к механике и тактике врагов, и тогда можно уверенно продвигаться вперед. Некоторые моменты, конечно, можно улучшить. Например, не помешали бы дополнительные подсказки для новичков и разнообразие в типах врагов. Впрочем, это не критичные недостатки, которые не позволяют получить удовольствие от игрового процесса. В целом, 'Dungeon Island' – это крепкий представитель своего жанра, который точно стоит попробовать любителям рогаликов и приключений. Затягивает надолго!

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
