Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW! Steam Charts & Stats

I wouldnt call this game "amazing". It is entertaining. At times it can be really hard (losing treasures). The plot is quite hillarious and the "special" abilities are a hoot. I am just glad theres some form of Adventure Time on PC. A++ voice acting. Wait for price to go down a little bit. Buy the dlcs. It enhances the game quite a bit and give some variety in play styles. I will recommend this game only when you have at least 2 players. Your teammate can revive you in game. It takes teamwork to be on the same screen. I dont recommend playing solo. It can take a long time and can get frustrating losing items. I enjoy the bits + shaders combos in the graphical output. Play with a controller. "I DON'T KNOW"..... JUST PLAY IT!!

Not mathmatical. I keep buying Adventure Time games because I keep thinking they'll make a good one. How hard can it be? This game is boring, repitious and only features local co-op. It's only redeeming quality is the abusrd amount of voice acting they put into it. This could have been a great game with some online multiplayer and more than eight enimies in the entire game. Seriously overpriced. Avoid!

Not worth the money. 5$ buy at best. no online co-op for a 40$ steam game is ridiculous. This is just a money grab.

The title is apt, I don't know why I, or anyone for that matter, would want to 'explore' this dungeon. Very boring and slow paced, be prepared to walk long distances doing nothing, then hitting a button a few times and then return to walking.

It's a fun enough little game if you liked Gauntlet in the 90s. But this doesn't bring much to the table to recommend it. If you love Adventure Time, you'll be happy to know that the voicing, writing, and general feel of everything AT-related is spot-on. You'll also be sad to know that it's only tangentally related to ANYTHING, and this is just a pretty average Gauntlet-style dungeon-delve with an Adventure Time lick of paint and far less action. It's clearly meant to be played co-op, so your mileage might vary, but for the solo adventurer? Give this one a miss. This thing is full of padding. There's little to no variety in the dungeons which are over-large for your movement speed and biomes drawn out too long. It makes use of an RPG-style upgrade system, but with very few increments and they've borrowed that infuriating mechanic from Rogue Legacy where all your currency is reset every time you go to town. Overall, it's just not very fun.

Repetitious and boring. Pretty much the opposite of the cartoon. This game doesn't really do justice to the original IP.

I suppose it could get better but it starts out really weak and slow. It's like a very simplified dungeon crawler and it's just endless randomly generated dungeons. The Combat is weak and the game is unimaginative. I don't know why they can't make a good adventure time game but they haven't yet. Basically this is endless smashing increasingly annoying and difficult enemies while you drill down through dungeons that are mostly empty & boring. I will update if it picks up but so far it's dismal...

Sadly, WayForward trick us all. This game is extremly booring and have unpardonable poor gameplay. Yes, it is bright and yes it has Adventure Time style and even original voice cast. But except this few things - Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW have nothing good at all. First of all don’t trust multiplayer budges at the game store page. This game have ONLY LOCAL CO-OP, strictly tied to gamepads. Second as soon as you complete tutorial you will get everything this game can give you. As I said: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW gameplay is extremely poor. This game have 100 levels of dungeon, bunch of heroes and only one way to going through it. And last one, OMG! Look at this price! Maybe Adventure Time license is expensive, but the right price for this piece of frustration is 2.99$. Do not get fooled by the title. This game is not worth your attention nor any of your money.

[h1]ADVENTURE TIME: EXPLORE THE DUNGEON BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW! - A fairly simplistic, top down, randomly generated dungeon crawler.

I have to say the graphical style works well, you really get the feeling of a retro arcade game mixed with the colorful world of Adventure Time. Characters and screens are well done and animations are simple but good.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Audio[/td] [td]6[/td] [td]Simple audio and effects, again the retro feel is very evident. Some nice voice acting by the cast of the show, but they feel a little overused.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Gameplay[/td] [td]4[/td] [td]You play through 100 randomly generated dungeons fighting the occasional boss along the way, all the time collecting keys which are used to unlock doors/chests and treasures which can be used to buy training or equipment. The problem is that the levels are very simplistic/repetitive and the game quickly becomes tedious.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Story[/td] [td]3[/td] [td]There isn't really a story, the characters from Adventure Time are all there and there are a few nice moments but overall the clue is in the title - there is no reason to be exploring the dungeons beyond "just because".[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Replayability[/td] [td]4[/td] [td]Being randomly generated should give the game a decent amount of replayability but because so many of the levels feel so similar it doesn't seem to count for much. There is a form of character advancement in that you can upgrade your stats and skills and you can buy items from the "choose goose", but considering the gameplay why would you want to keep playing it? [/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Multiplayer[/td] [td]4[/td] [td]The Multiplayer is LOCAL only (dont expect to be playing with your steam friends), and is decidedly average. It is somewhat reminiscent of gauntlet in that it usually descends quickly into who can collect the most treasure/food before everyone else, except that in this game certain characters have a clear advantage over others in terms of speed / flying over obstacles (A good way to fall out with friends). [/td] [/tr] [tr] [td][h1]Overall[/h1][/td] [td]4.5[/td] [td]While this game may appeal to young players and some fans of the show, I find it very hard to recommend it.

**Just gonna make a quick edit here; it amuses me how many people complain about how this game has no online multiplayer, when it has NEVER been announced that it would have any. It says on Steam, the box of the game, and everywhere online where it was advertised, that is is -local- multiplayer. Why the heck people thought it would be online is beyond me, lol.** This is coming from someone who practically worships Adventure Time. WayForward's two little games that they made do the series NO justice whatsoever. Hey Ice King was short, easy, and overall just as bad as the game it was a clone of, Zelda II. Explore The Dungeon is a slow-paced, tedious rouge-lite. The floors are procedurally generated, yet still manage to all feel the same. The game itself is buggy, with enemies and background objects/lights disappearing and re-appearing at random, and some tiles glitching into eachother and giving off a static effect. Enemies and items often like to fall through walls, which can be annoying. The characters have varying movement speeds, but even as Marceline, who is the fastest, I still feel dreadfully slow. The speed-up token, Speed Shoes, feels absolutely essential simply because without it the game feels like an even longer and slower monotonous grind than it already is. There are only a handful of enemies, around twelve or so, and then a good four or five pallet swaps of each one. You enter the Nightosphere at one point but there isn't even anything new there; only another layer of palletswaps. They even rehash old boss fights in a lazy-as-heck effort to pad out the game! I know many games do that, but the bosses in this are story-specific events and not just super-versions of certain monsters. Susan Strong and her people have no need being in the Nightosphere; yet there they are, and you need to save them, again. Because reasons. The only good factor about the game is the voice-acting; the original cast came in and delivered all the glorious voices we've come to love. Yet even that isn't much of a redeeming factor because of how utterly -repetitive- the lines get. I actually have to play with the game muted and my own music or videos playing in the background because the game gets so dang dry, so quickly. I'm not talking about when I grind either; I mean even just making progress through the game, only unmuting it during boss fights so you don't miss out on the actual new dialouge. That's about it, really. The game is just a buggy, monotonous grind that is absolutely NOT fun at all to play. Even with friends, it's still just doing the same boring crap over and over, laughing awkwardly at the repetitive voice acting, trying to pretend like you're all having a good time. I get that the game is geared towards children, but even then, I can't see a child's simple mind being hooked on this game for very long. Either way, it's a game where you want to know how it ends, so you force yourself to keep playing. Then after that, you drop it and will never pick it up again because you don't want to re-experience that hell for as long as you live. The only things we have to thank WayForward for here are a waste of time and money. Thanks guys, you made another cruddy game. *Slowclap*. I really wish Pen would stop trusting his beloved series to those goons. Shantae and Mighty Switch Force were OK, but nothing fantastic. Just simple platformers using breasts to sell themselves really. Other than that WayForward have nothing to speak for. I'm sure a small team of dedicated FANS could make a far superior game than Hey Ice King and Explore the Dungeon. Seriously, the bloody IOS games were better than these.
