One Deck Dungeon

One Deck Dungeon

One Deck Dungeon is a lot of fun! You play an adventurer who decends into a dungeon made up of randomly drawn cards that you must overcome (or run away from). Fighting and disabling traps is resolved via dice rolls which are mitigated by your Skills. The number of dice is determined by your equipment. It’s a very clever and pretty game.

However, 13 hours in, I just stomped all the Fearless (hardest) mode dungeons with my Healing Spec Paladin. I mean, it wasn’t even close, even when she got completely unlucky. (for proof, feel free to check the screenshots on my profile) Perhaps Healadins are just overpowered once you know what’s going on.

One deck dungeon is a very faithful interpretation of the board game, and this translates into a very fun, albeit slightly repetitive experience.

At its heart, one deck dungeon is a simple dice game where you roll dice of 4 different colours in an attempt to overcome enemy encounters by using the dice to fill in the boxes on the enemy card. Dice can only be used to fill boxes of the same colour as the die and if the number on the die is higher than the value on the box. Any unfilled boxes then apply penalties in the form of damage or wasted time at the end of the round. At the end of each encounter you can then choose an additional die for future encounters, a skill which can be used to manipulate your dice in various ways, or experience towards your character level. This process then repeats until you eventually reach the boss or perish in the attempt.

The Awakening of Mummies

The Awakening of Mummies

This is an absolutely fun and enjoyable family-friendly game for me! The graphics are well detailed, interesting, colorful and in many cases, whimsical. The content is interesting, and the difficulty levels are well-spaced between the beginner with a single mummy up to those that you really have to work for with three mummies, especially for the achievements which prevents the game from becoming “ho-hum” and uninteresting. I would recommend this game to my friends and look forward to more “pyramids to escape” from!

What a cute and humorous mummy, the game has a very smooth progression, so I started to understand how to escape the traps while I was enchanted with the details, but arriving in the middle of the second part I already realized that my logic classes will be very useful.

Castle Explorer

Castle Explorer

The fun is in the dying. Die you will. With thousands in gold and a mere step away from the exit or done in by the vampire chasing you-you will die. From dragonfire or traps or even slipping off a plank over a chasm:you will die.Rotating rooms,traps,pits.locked doors,trapped doors and even clear corridors await you. Venture forth and die in the dungeon. A few lucky ones will escape with treasures-a very few. Could you be one? Will you be a legend in the beerhalls or the butt of jokes-did you hear about Dragonspoor with his arms full of treasure trapped in the rotating room against the castle wall helpless while the dragonfie came for him? Yes,the fun is in the dying-unless you don’t. then the fun is in the retelling of your adventures.

Even though I recieved this game for free and it is developed by a close friend of mine I still hope you will take the time to read my honost opinion of the game.

Castle Explorer is a basically board game for pc, and what makes board games good? The experience you get when playing with friends so if you don’t have any friends to play this game with and you have to play with only the AI, I wouldn’t recommend this game.

In Castle Explorer the RNG reign supreme, and even though that might be frustrating to some (especially competitive) people, I have found it quite amusing that you could end up dead on your first turn due to bad luck on the roulette or a bad choice when picking which tile to pick up and place.

Descent: Legends of the Dark

Descent: Legends of the Dark

The App is being supported well. Game play is fun and innovative. It still feels like Descent. I like the streamlined changes to the fatigue system. I like the combat system better now that there isn’t a 16% chance of whiffing. You might do very little damage, but something always happens on an attack roll. The multi level terrain adds a neat visual affect and has a descent affect on game play.

FFGs best app based board game yet! Enemies drop loot, you can harvest crafting materials, save your game between rounds, visit a town where you can craft items, have town triggered events, and more. Each mission had specific points of interest and and interactions that were unique depending on which characters you brought with you. I’m also really impressed with the quest variety. They’ve really outdone themselves. 33 hours in, and still having a blast.

Super excited to continue my adventure, and I hope to see this board game/app supported for a long time to come!

Dudes on a Map: Virtual Grid Paper

Dudes on a Map: Virtual Grid Paper

I can’t say enough about how great this tool is for helping with running my game! It’s simple to pick up and start playing with, without having to study tutorial videos. Easily import your own maps in jpeg form, and you’re on your way to having a great time with friends. There are some ‘fancy’ features, like having 2 different types of fog (one standard and one for secret areas you don’t want to accidentally reveal), marking up areas of effect, initiative tracker, add in your own monster/NPC tokens, and a dice roller (with the option of using symbol dice for different game systems). While these are great, you don’t need to use them if you don’t want to. I tired of trying to learn how to use other systems, and my experience of using dudes has convinced me that I don’t need to while still having a great time with my friends.

Been playing since the earliest Alpha releases. Also, for respectful reasons of this review, I did not get it for free but I am close to the creator so, anyone reading this, perhaps you’ll feel that there’s bias BUT, I will happily preface it at the top here first.

Dudes On A Map, for me, can be described as the easiest non-tech proficient program for playing RPG’s online with your friends. While some may say “Scoff, there’s not nearly as many tools and all these bells and all those whistles.” I would reply to them “Good, I don’t want all that and, to be honest, I don’t want to take a small 101 course just to get my games running.”

CHOOSE YOUR CASTERLORDS

A powerful mage obsessed with the pursuit of forbidden knowledge. Nazrun’s unique cards heavily focus on casting magic spells, trading survivability for raw power.

An honourable warrior who treats the lowly denizens of Eawyn with respect and dignity. His unique cards boast flexibility, offering a balance between power, defense, and magic.

STORY

Deep in the mistfallen valleys of Eawyn lies the green, mossy ruins of an ancient shrine; a long-forgotten portal to some other world or some other time.

Every so often, a CasterLord will appear from this sacred portal, perhaps brought into this world by some benevolent spirit or banished from their own world by a fearful deity.

These CasterLords may take different and strange forms, but each bristles with overwhelming power and is compelled to take over the kingdom.

Sitting on his gilded throne, the Immortal Emperor towers above the realm atop his twisted iron fortress. The shadows of hundreds of vanquished CasterLords burned into its walls, will you be able to defeat him and unlock the secrets behind the mysterious appearances of the CasterLords?

This game is extremely simple (basically, push your luck kind of game), but it is a fun way to spend some time with friends. The selling point is that you can play with almost infinite amount of people — and only one of them should own the game. So it is easy to play online in a manner similar to Jackbox games — one player streams the game, others connect with their devices. So if you have a larger company and wanna play something really simple while you are chatting, it is a good choice.

I Love this game.

It is just as ruthless as Castle Explorer. But here it is your own Greed that drives you to the death.

It Is a fun game where only the hosts need it and all others can join in - Just like jack box games.

The Feeling “There is 52% chance I will get gold and 4% change I will meet the same trap again and die. I NEED GOOOLD” and then the trap….

Running 5 Games in a row to see what player wins and so is just so fun - Had a game here the other day, The AFK Dude that fled on round one all rounds got on the 3 places. we were 6 players ;)

Dark Quest 2

Dark Quest 2

Greetings jung lad. Come and take a seat. I will tell you from a time of darkness…

It all took place in a world, similar to one we know, but different enough to be worth another story.

Were a handful of heroes gathered to defeat the evil sorcerer Zantor. For ages he dwelled in the darkness, raising his foul minions unter his iront fist, and one after the other, free lands fall before him.

Mighty castles turned into lairs of terror, swarmed by his minions, til a few remaining heroes gathered:

The wild barbarian, the wise wizard, the studdy dwarf, the mysterious dark monk, the swift archer and the honorable knight. Together, under the leadership of the barbarian warrior, they march towards the darkest of all places in the world: Zantors Keep.

Dark Quest 2 is a dungeon exploring game with very simple mechanics. Almost everything can be done with a click of the left mouse button. However, it’s not an easy game.

You start the game as a Barbarian, but are later able to change or add additional heroes to your party. There are a total of 28 quests. Each quest has its own maze of a map to explore, complete with gold, gems, magic pots, traps, and monsters. The gold and gems are used to buy potions, craft items, obtain temporary bonus stats, heal heroes, and resurrect them if they have fallen. Everything is expensive, and money can be quite scarce. The magic pots are used to upgrade abilities and skills. These are also relatively scarce. Traps can only be detected by a skill or by the use of a crafted item, and some traps are unavoidable.
