grinding7 negative mentions
  • Enjoyable short incremental/dungeon crawler hybrid with a smooth and satisfying progression system.
  • Polished pixel art, good sound design, and well-paced gameplay that keeps players engaged for its duration.
  • Includes a variety of upgrades, companions, and an endless roguelike mode to extend replayability beyond the main game.
  • Very short overall playtime with limited content and repetitive level design, leading to a lack of depth.
  • Gameplay mechanics such as click-to-move controls and basic combat lack refinement; some skill tree and upgrades feel uninspired or underutilized.
  • Occasional bugs, poor balance in later stages, and minor UI/quality of life issues (e.g., missing controller support at launch, inability to access settings mid-run).

    The gameplay offers a simple and polished dungeon-crawling clicker experience with an enjoyable core loop of combat and progression, but it lacks variety, depth, and challenge, causing the loop to become repetitive and shallow. While the short playtime and smooth pacing make it a fun, quick experience, many reviewers wished for more engaging combat mechanics, meaningful upgrades, and strategic options. Overall, it blends idle and active elements well but feels more like a brief appetizer than a full, varied RPG.

    • “The core gameplay loop of clearing dungeon floors, collecting loot, and becoming stronger is enjoyable at first.”
    • “The simulated dungeon crawls were a perfect mix of active and idle gameplay as you gathered upgrades.”
    • “Duncrush, developed and published by Golden Pick Games, presents itself as a compact yet engaging fusion of clicker mechanics and dungeon-crawling RPG progression.”
    • “If you make another game like this, I would advise that a) you make progressing the skill tree fun and not +10 dmg or other uninteresting upgrades; b) not make an overall boring gameplay loop; c) make it so items aren't so easily replaceable as soon as you get to the next floor (there is little point in upgrading items other than the last one); d) give enemies more than 2 attacks; e) make bosses with fun attacks or gimmicks, not just bigger base enemies with the same stale attacks; f) give the player more than 2 special attacks which you max out fully halfway into the game.”
    • “The gameplay loop never changes, the mercenaries seem to get stuck all the time, the item system does not add anything extra.”
    • “However, variety is critically low (every stage is literally the same minus the visuals and damage scaling), visuals feel straight out of a licensed pixel art pack and upgrades are about what you'd expect rather than there being any personality inserted or much mechanical depth.”

  • graphics

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    36% positive mentions, 37% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The game features polished pixel art graphics with a clean, accessible interface and well-designed boss visuals, which players generally appreciate. However, some find the visual variety lacking, as stages feel repetitive and the graphics appear generic, resembling licensed pixel art packs. Overall, the pixel aesthetic is praised for its clarity and charm, but the graphical innovation and depth are limited.

    • “Love the pixel style graphics, the boss designs I really like too!”
    • “The pixel-based aesthetic, clean interface, and immediate readability help make the experience accessible right from the start, ensuring that even short play sessions feel productive.”
    • “The graphics aesthetic is perfect.”
    • “However, variety is critically low (every stage is literally the same minus the visuals and damage scaling), visuals feel straight out of a licensed pixel art pack and upgrades are about what you'd expect rather than there being any personality inserted or much mechanical depth.”
    • “Game's just not very innovative, fun, skillful, does not have particularly good visuals and the music's not too good either.”
    • “Graphics seemed polished.”

  • music

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 30% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The music in the game generally fits its nostalgic, old-school style and is praised for enhancing the retro atmosphere. However, some users find it repetitive and occasionally annoying, leading them to mute it. Overall, the soundtrack is considered good to excellent, complementing the pixel art and simple gameplay well.

    • “The pixel art, sound effects, and soundtrack all fit the game's old-school style nicely.”
    • “Short but fun, the music and sound effects were especially well done, felt like I was playing an old arcade classic.”
    • “A good bit of fun for a couple of hours, the soundtrack is incredible.”

  • replayability

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 24% neutral mentions, 38% negative mentions

    The game offers limited replayability primarily through an infinite or rogue-like mode unlocked after completion, but these modes provide only minor variation and lack meaningful progression or engaging choices. While it may be worth playing for a low price, many feel the replay value is minimal and could benefit from additional content like achievements to encourage repeated play.

    • “You can replay it or do the infinite mode for more replayability.”
    • “Replayability includes a one-time playthrough and an endless mode.”
    • “There are attempts at replayability via an infinite or rogue-like mode unlocked after completing the main run.”
    • “There are attempts at replayability via an infinite or rogue-like mode unlocked after completing the main run, but they offer only minor variety and don’t shake up the basic gameplay loop.”
    • “It's somewhere in the middle, and lacks a real sense of progression and replayability because of it.”
    • “But if you’re hoping for satisfying progression, meaningful choices, or replay value, it’s hard not to see this as wasted potential.”

  • grinding

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 12% neutral mentions, 88% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is generally mild and balanced, with some players appreciating the steady progression without excessive grind. However, a few note that certain parts, especially for achievements and loot farming, can feel repetitive and grindy. Overall, it's a short, enjoyable experience with manageable grinding for those seeking completion.

    • “You can feel the damage thresholds all the time and it becomes a game where you just need to grind stats so you can go next level, get one-shotted and start grinding again.”
    • “Loot system is initially interesting but ends up being just grindy and uninteresting.”
    • “Fun game that takes about 2.5 to 3 hours to get all the achievements; once you have completed the base game, aside from grinding the rest of the achievements which take about an extra 10 minutes, there’s not much to do.”

  • story

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    20% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 60% negative mentions

    The story in the game is brief, with a main quest lasting around 90 minutes that unlocks the roguelike experience. While it may feel limited for those seeking a deeper narrative, it suits players looking for a concise, action-focused dungeon crawler with clicker elements. Some users express a desire for more features like rebirth mechanics, story modes, and cutscenes to enhance longevity and storytelling.

    • “Those seeking a more expansive or story-heavy experience may find its scope too narrow, but for fans of compact dungeon crawling with clicker mechanics, the game offers a polished and enjoyable blend of action and progression.”
    • “Short main quest to unlock the true roguelike.”
    • “Those seeking a more expansive or story-heavy experience may find its scope too narrow.”
    • “It's normally $4 and I think the main story was about 90 minutes for me, which I think is reasonable.”

  • optimization

    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game runs flawlessly with no technical issues, offering smooth performance. While it is playable on the Steam Deck, the controls could benefit from better optimization for that platform.

    • “Performance was flawless during my playthrough, and I didn't encounter any bugs or technical issues.”
    • “Playable on Steam Deck but wish the controls were better optimized for it.”

  • humor
