Dungeon Girl Reviews

Simple and fun game about dungeon delving with RPG elements and match-like. Honestly, I got a lot of entertainment from it.

Rather dense at first, not helped by the low initial difficulty meaning you don't have to understand the item/upgrade mechanics to get to floor 110 or so. Gets better as you understand more (pay attention to all the pages of help if you want to grok how stuff works, although it's kind of inpenetrable at the beginning.)

I have had this game in my Whishlist for almost 4 months before release because it looked like a fun game with tactical puzzle RPG elements in a dungeon crawler setting. I was HYPED for this game. What i got was a clicker with a fixed screen size, walls of text, and no real tutorial that was clearly designed with a mobile market in mind (you find games like this on your phone for free) at a very steep pricetag for what it is (More that 2,50 € for what I was bothered to see from the game is just greedy). Maybe the game gets more intrigueing after a few hours. it is possible that tactics will matter more in the long run. i don't know, because i can't be bothered to waste what little time i have to play on a game this basic and unengaging. but the worst part is the pseudo-hentai japanese moaning sounds that spam every action you make and accompany every horribly written dialogue scene. You feel like you are watching a porn, while playing a clicker with a FTP game interface that you paid 12 bucks on.

I think it's pretty neat. Definitely addictive. I would recommend just jumping into it blind and finding out how to play as you go instead of trying to understand the instructions. Not knowing how the game works at first made it feel more rogue-like. I think its a interesting style of "puzzle" game. Also the stories and art is cute, so there's that too.

This is the first game I've ever returned on Steam. I was hoping for something along the lines of a puzzle RPG, but the puzzle part is really, really lacking. I like the character designs, they were cute. The story seemed like perfectly passable anime fluff. The translation seems to be okay. But it fails in the crucial part of the game. The dungeon exploration through a puzzle game isn't much of a puzzle game and is really easy. There seems to be little feedback as to what is going on. I fought a boss and had no idea until after I beat it and the character said something about it. There is no tutorial just some instructions on how to do things which is only mildly helpful. In the end, I didn't see it worth spending the money on this game.

This game has the bones of something really great, and the art is super cute and pretty! but at the end of the day it's not fun and confusing to figure out. I would almost recommend you buy this (on sale) to learn everything you shouldn't do to teach a player your game. there's no tutorial that really tells you what you're supposed to be doing, or why the dozens of onscreen UI components matter or what it's all for. It took me five minutes to figure out how to start the main puzzle game portion. I have played a few levels (50) and I'm still not sure if I'm doing a good job? I think part of this is that this is an english localized game, so the translation was tricky. It's a real shame, and I can tell this was put together by a scrappy indie team so I won't ask for a refund. I will just say, hold off on buying until someone writes a detailed guide, at least.

To begin, I really like this game. It also has a lot of potential. I wouldn't say things are outright bad, more like meh. First of all, it's a lot of clicking. It's a match-1 and that makes it a lot easier than if it were a match-2 type game. Matching tile 2+ is not necessary to advance, but it eventually hinders you if you do not. The fighting is so unengaging that I end up clicking through tiles quickly and missing the details about my health, mind, and status effects. I think this is because they're so tiny and the clicking can be mesmerizing. It bothers me a LOT how time moves in game. I just made it to level 100 and it has supposedly been [b]26 years[/b] in game! That feels so disjointed from everything else in game. It bothers me. Time doesn't matter, beyond for bonuses. The characters are that JRPG-side-side-character kind of shallow and sort of childish. They are't really fleshed out. It takes forever to get the story bits out of the game, and the character development is so minuscule to begin with. It leaves me feeling like I'm not getting much out of it. The item mixing mechanic has so much potential, so many cool items with very useful effects, but the actual mechanics don't get explained very well if at all, and there are so many variables going on at once that it makes it hard to distinguish what exactly is going on with your results; it's hard to figure out what to mix so that I can achieve what I want. The art is kind of different (in a good way), and the coloring gorgeous, but it seems like the artist(s) for the characters didn't fully understand angles. For example, the art is just funky underneath and around the torso and chest areas for several characters (like Monika). Overall, it's playable and enjoyable honestly. There's enough content and it's understandable enough to enjoy. The clicking is soothing and mesmerizing. While making it a match-1 rather than a match-2 makes it more easily playable, I wonder if they could've given us the option for that difficulty to give us some more fun. I like it enough to keep playing it. You might too. Maybe grab it on sale.

It is a fun game to play in increments and it manages to have this really good balance between relaxing game play and stressful risk-reward difficulty you can control. However, it suffers from repetitive game play and a serious lack of story. Just be aware of what you're signing up for in Dungeon Girl. I recommend it on sale.

With over 100 hours in this game, you'd think I'd understand how the game works....i do not. Like: its cutesy and not bad if you wanna spend a lot of time figuring it out Hate: tutorial is worthless and the mechanics are super confusing, game only comes in small (i play with a magnifier), its super grindy to get a small bite of okayish story and to unlock support characters that aren't super great, its not really a puzzle or match game more of a click on groups of tiles

In terms of depth, challenge and taste level, this plays like a mobile game and I would not recommend it at full price. More or less, you feel like you are clicking a ton without much thought. The storylines are also too far into anime cheese territory with half the cast acting like 6 year old children. Having said that, if you like cute clickers with minimal challenge to zone out while playing, it's not bad. I still wouldn't recommend it without a half-price sale at least.
