Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Its kinda clunky. Things like keeping settings you set don't stay like you set them, with 2 screens moving the screen around is choppy towards the other screen. Theres also the selection of the things you want to build, you have to click on the thing you want to build a few times often times.1 found this helpful
[h1]Before I played Dungeon Overseer, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]1 found this helpful
not the worst way to burn an hour
A cool game where you build a dungeon and watch how everything works.
Game is a bit buggy, however it reminds me on Dungeon Keeper games.
