Dungeon Antiqua Reviews

Tiny game but fun few hrs

I could call this a Wizardry 2 remake with Final Fantasy III aesthetics but that would be underselling the game by a lot. You can clearly see the amount of care put into every small detail of game design in this title. Classes, weapons, spells, items are all super well-balanced and the boss fights are designed around figuring out the most efficient way to take them on, rather than allowing for brute strength to be the optimal strategy. It's also pleasantly short but pretty dense with content due to the fast pace nature of the game, so you don't feel like you didn't play enough.

Fast-paced dungeoncrawler. I finished this in one sitting using mostly auto-battle, took me roughly 3 hours of total playtime. There's some class customization (which I completely ignored), a hard difficulty after beating the game on normal and apparently also some post-game content which I haven't looked into yet. It's a fun romp. I may come back to this in order to finish it on hard and experiment a bit with class options. Oh, and definitely get a mage and a priest in your party. The mage's Bird Eye spell basically gives you a GPS with built-in auto-walk and the priest has a bunch of QoL spells.
