Triple Dungeon
Big fan of the original Touch Dungeon. Now it’s back on Computer where you get to play not one, not two, but a whopping THREE games at once. You Do The Math!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conceptually this was a good idea, but the execution was poor. All three dungeons are exactly the same, you just have to play them at the same time. Overall it was an enjoyable experience, and well worth the $2.00.

Adore
With the latest update, Adore is in the best state it’s ever been, and keeps me coming back to play in a way the original gameplay loop, while innovative, just didn’t manage to accomplish.
To those out of the loop: before the Welcome Home update, the play loop of Adore was structured more traditionally ‘roguelike’ in terms of run progression, with a groundbreaking summoner/moba-like combat system, but relatively light on the ‘creature collecting’ part of the game, simply because that' difficult to incorporate in any roguelike. There was a metagame hub where some creatures (not many) could be ‘stored’, essentially, and the only way to get new ones ‘stored’ was to start runs with empty party slots and capture new creatures, which you could then choose to bring with you or not when the run ended/failed. There was an element of ‘trading up’ through a run to a degree, starting with a few keeper creatures and some filler, and then capturing/releasing others as you went to keep pace with the difficulty curve (which, let me not forget to mention, is surprisingly steep and still is. not unfairly so, but definitely unforgivingly so). This resulted in some awkward tensions, such as situations where you could theoretically capture a new creature (that would then have full health) to replace your trained up creature that was at critical health to keep the run going, but would result in giving up the ‘keeper’ creature etc. It had phenomenal per-run gameplay and combat mehcanics, but had self-admitted struggles making the roguelike and creature collecting parts of the game - the blending thereof being what makes Adore so innovative - play nicely together. As a result, it was primarily a ‘roguelike with creature collecting elements’.

I came back a second time to edit my review after almost a year of not playing.
TLDR: This is a genre-defining title, and the devs are CLEARLY on to something.
insert sound of audience clapping, whooping, and throwing roses
Wow you guys have done something incredible with the soundtrack. The music is a sincere joy to experience, in fact when I came back it was the FIRST thing I noticed/remembered. I thought to myself “I cannot believe how good this music feels to listen to, like calm in your soul.” Every zone’s track brings me this internal feeling of ethereal serenity in my soul. I mean FFS guys, I could feel the music in my chest. I heard it with my heart, not my ears. Y’all obviously LOVED making the music for this game, and as a musician myself, I feel that that passion is what has made this game so wonderful.
