Radical Dungeon Sweeper

What if [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/226620/Desktop_Dungeons/]Desktop Dungeons[/url] was also Mine Sweeper? RDS ends up quite a bit leaner, with its 8x8 boards and no meta progression (outside of characters that you can rescue and [i]lose[/i] right after). It keeps a looser leash on the player, early on at least -- where DD's levels can feel like math puzzles from the outset, RDS lets you "wing it" for much longer. If you're deciding to pick this up today, you're probably getting it in the "Pre-Punkcake Bundle". And honestly it feels like something that should be part of the regular Punkcake. Would actually get sales and eyes on it that way.

This game disappoints me very unexpectedly. No guide, no upgrades, no new heroes. The goal is meaningless, to transfer some eggs down to the next dungeon, and it never ends. If you want to play another game like Runestone Keeper, you are going to the wrong place. Just leave.

Very nostalgic feeling, gorgeous art and music. I don't like that it's a rogue-like and not a rogue-lite, but that's a me thing. It's more of a battler than a minesweeper as there are way too many situations where you're left with nothing but stepping on a mine to progress.

It's pretty good. If you leave it running too long it'll crash and you may lose a really great run. Be careful out there.

lots of replay value

Awesome game overall. There is engaging gameplay, multiple play methods, interesting monsters, cute art and sound, and a riveting plot(no). Yeah, endless game by default, no final boss or something is a rather significant and unfortunate shortcoming of the game. But, it's a good time-waster nevertheless.
