Critic Reviews
Dungeon Defenders: Awakened review – Caught in a trap
Dungeon Defenders: Awakened is a fun time, especially with others. But it doesn't have as much content as the game it's remaking yet, meaning that people still playing that one might be reluctant to move onto this version.
70%Dungeon Defenders: Awakened
Dungeon Defenders: Awakening makes for a fun title to play with friends or people online. While solo is not out of the question, the game is clearly made for people to get together and build impenetrable defences. If you have never played a Dungeon Defenders game then Awakened is a great place to start with. For those newcomers, this will feel fresh, since there are not many similar games that blend both tower defence and action RPG elements. Fans might have a lot of déjà vu with this initial release, due to a lot of reused content now in a new coat of paint, which can only be corrected with the future downloadable content to expand the game – this should be a lot if using the original title as a reference. Dungeon Defenders: Awakening has had a buggy start, but the foundations here show signs of greatness, and right now it still makes for a bloody good time with a lot of difficulty to get through, which should only get better as the bugs are ironed out and the content increases.
