Avis sur Dungeon Drafters

Voilà un petit RPG tactique basé sur un principe de CCG fort sympathique. En soit il n’y a rien de particulièrement nouveau mais les cartes sont variées et les combats agréables. Il y a tout de même un tas de petits détails qui rendent l’expérience de jeu plus fastidieuse qu’elle ne devrait : - J’y ai joué sur steamdeck et la prise en main nécessite quelques réglages ce dans quoi je ne suis pas très doué. - le déplacement à travers la ville qui tient lieu de Hub est lent et les aller retours nombreux. Une vue différente pour la ville (type point and click) aurait été bienvenue - J’ai joué essentiellement un deck bleu-rouge bonnes cartes (donc pas un truc combo dégénéré) et malgré tout on voyait que très vite le jeu était dépassé par les combos qu’on peut effectuer avec des ralentissements et un difficulté à sélectionner les cartes dans une gande main. - Enfin, le dernier donjon est trop long, sans sauvegarde possible et avec l’obligation de tout recommencer depuis le début la mort y devient vraiment trop punitive. Ce d’autant plus que sans retour en arrière sur les mouvements (un minimum pour ce genre de jeu) un simple missclic peut ruiner des heures de jeu. Bon je ne suis finalement pas mort dans le dernier donjon mais je ne suis pas sûr que j’aurais recommencé si ça avait été le cas. Ceci dit le plaisir de jeu était bien là. Pour les amateurs de combats tactiques et de deck-building malgré des contours parfois abrupts.

Le jeu est tellement punitif, je le trouve plutôt mal equilibrer pour les puzzle

tres bon jeu et c'est rare de me décrocher un commentaire :)

This game is a deck building / tactical combat / dungeon crawler. It's globaly ok, but I have two main problems with it: - Cards' descriptions are really lacking: Despite being crutial to know the spell's range, it's barely mentioned (if at all) and only in vague terms. How am I supposed to know that "a line" stops after 3 tiles? Or that "a shot" can't be fired at blank-point? Cards invoking MOBs typically don't specify what the MOB do. Effect's descriptions omit alternative uses. Like "stealthy" is described as being untargetable by most enemies, but actually it also allows to teleport. - If you die in a dungeon, you lose everything from the run. It's really annoying when the run goes smouth and suddenly you face an enemy dealing 2 dmg per turn (you have max 10 HP), without any distance nor field of view limit, and too far away to reach it before it kills you.

Pourquoi jouer a Dungeon Drafter : - Vous aimez les jeux de cartes - Vous aimez monter un deck en jouant sur les combos et les synergies - Vous aimez les tactical au tour par tour - Vous aimez les casse têtes - Vous aimez adapter votre deck aux différentes zones et adversaires Le jeu offre un grand nombre de mécaniques différentes et d'effets a combiner pour monter votre deck, ce qui est pour moi est une de ses grande force. La combinaison de jeu de carte et de rogue lite en tour par tour est un peu une niche, mais les amateurs du genre en auront pour leur argent.

L'UI est moisie. Devoir traverser 2 modes pour connaître les patterns ennemis (qui seront systématiquement demandés), c'est déjà un mauvais choix de conception. Mais surtout, les deux premiers modes (déplacement, et inspection des ennemis) se ressemblent tellement qu'il est facile de les confondre. Comme les touches directionnelles servant à naviguer dans ces modes sont aussi celles qui font un déplacement direct du perso, les confondre équivaut à un déplacement involontaire : perte de points d'action au mieux, danger mortel au pire.

Wow man this is good, finally a good indie game that isn't early access

This game is rather fun, but it is also very punishing and extremely frustrating at times. I am still going to recommend it since it was still a net positive for me (and I played it for a good while), but your mileage may vary. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ TL;DR (+) Game looks and sounds good, comat's rather fun, progression gives plenty of choice (+) Some of the puzzles and shortcut are very satisfying to figure out, especially when low on options (+) Really cool boss fights (-) When you don't have the right tools yet, some fights feel really unfair (-) Deckbuilder UI is pretty annoying to use (-) So much info is hidden, some secrets are ridiculously tedious. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ This game is easy. This game is difficult. To be more precise, the game asks questions. If you have the answer, great, things go smoothly. If you don't, you're going to have a bad time. No ranged attack? Those bomb beetles will explode on you. Many enemies? Hope you have good movement/area damage, because 3ap will only get you so far, especially if you need to spend 1 of it removing root, sleep or stun. Can't clear a room quickly? Well, that gizmo in the middle of the room will poke you for 2 every turn, have fun. The biggest questions will come from later bosses, some of which can render your attacks ineffective while others will bring your demise quickly. If you get caught off guard, you can - and will - lose that battle, no matter how OP you think you are. Nothing like filling the arena with OP summons and losing because haha stealth. Overall my experience was: early game was challenging because of having few strong cards, mid game was rather fair and interesting - you start exploring stuff in other archetypes and everything, and late game was a piece of cake because you can pretty much sneeze and go infinite. This game, like most recently-released games nowadays, has bugs. Many were patched quickly, but I still got a couple ones. Some are to your advantage (seems having only one fragile rune doesn't increase damage taken), some are annoying (root eating your ap on the following turn), and some are just weird (animation glitch that persists until death and freezes your game if you attack in that state). Mostly acceptable state. However, there are two bits that really hindered my enjoyment of the game: - The deckbuilding UI is very clunky. You have to manually change runes one by one. And you can't add cards to the deck unless the runes required are equipped. No "look around collection, add stuff then trim to fit runes", you need to add the runes first. Playing 2 archetypes and wondering which one you have best tier 3 cards for? Maybe go 2/2 and 1 of another for flexibility? Gotta try all that manually, yay ! - So many things are just... obscure. You can't see the range of cards until you try them. Some seem very good until you realize it's not a big area and it's like 2 awkwardly spread tiles. Enemies have effect when hit or killed... but you'll only see what exactly after the fact. There's hardly any resource for the game yet, and some things are very unintuitive or absurdly hidden. You'll reach the tutorial boss and lose, and wonder wtf it's OP. You'll check in-game and find no counter, but its gimmick is explained in a dev comment on steam... yeah, you wouldn't have guessed that's how it works. For the last curio I missed, you need to find the regular-looking tile to interact with, multiple times. It took me many hours going through it, even with the one post about it giving some vague indications about possible locations.

Jeu excellent, les possibilités de build sont énormes, les puzzles sont très bien faits, la difficulté bien dosé, c'est un grand oui. Les Majs ont été très rapide pour corriger les bugs, un grand bravo aux devs qui ont bossés comme des malades depuis la sortie.
