Shallow gameplay. Too easy to lose straight away. Minion AI is awful.

Not too bad, can be a bit of fun. But it is super short. Would only buy it for like 1-2€

It's kind of neat conceptually, but this game is an absolute nightmare in practice. It's extremely fast paced, with there being no way to pause the game and take a breath between waves of enemies. This itself wouldn't be too much of an issue, but it also requires a lot of micromanagement from what I've seen; your miner units will get hungry after a while, which requires them to go to a cauldron, but if there's too much distance between them and a cauldron, they'll just... sit their asses down and wait for you to pick them up and place them near a cauldron. It also starts running pretty poorly, from what I've seen, after your dungeon gets sufficiently large. I don't know. I think it's still neat, even if it frustrates and confuses me.

honestly a really bad game, you can lose instantly because the game spawns the adventurers in the orbs room. you basic units can only dig and eat, and the actual attacker costs 10 gold, so by the time you've gotten the money for it, there's already an adventurer attacking the orb. there is zero down time, none, so you have to act on pure chaos with no second to plan or think. AND THATS THE EASIEST DIFFICULTY. save your money and buy a different dungeon management game.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
