atmosphere2 positive mentions
story3 negative mentions
  • The game captures a retro-style dungeon crawler atmosphere with enjoyable exploration and a decent magic system.
  • Character progression and combat mechanics, while basic, offer a somewhat satisfying RPG experience.
  • The dungeon environments have good visuals and sound effects, providing an engaging ambiance for fans of classic dungeon crawlers.
  • Numerous critical bugs, including soft-locks caused by disappearing key quest items and glitches like falling through floors, severely hinder gameplay.
  • Controls and UI are awkward and unpolished, featuring fixed keys that can't be remapped, poor inventory management, and inconsistent menu behavior.
  • The AI chat-bot dialogue system is unreliable, often failing to register quest completions and causing progression issues, with little developer support or updates.

  • story

    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    8% positive mentions, 69% neutral mentions, 23% negative mentions

    The story is shallow and accompanied by very basic RPG mechanics, with quests that are simple but often buggy and unclear, leading to potential soft-locks. The novel chat-bot narrative interface is innovative but unreliable in tracking quest progress. Limited quest variety and lack of hand-holding reduce replay value and overall narrative engagement.

    • “There are not enough quests per floor.”
    • “A shallow story matches very basic RPG mechanics and a rudimentary inventory full of clutter, but not much carry capacity from floor to floor.”
    • “It's quite possible that even though quest completion dialogue is shown, vital items are not taken or given, resulting in soft-locks and the inability to progress.”
    • “The attempt to introduce a chat-bot interface to replace a menu-driven narrative sometimes does not register quest completions.”

    The graphics in the game receive mixed feedback, with some noting agreeable, crisp HD artwork primarily limited to cutscenes and loading screens, while in-game visuals are less impressive and lack customization options. The overall graphical presentation feels outdated and unsophisticated, contributing to a retro adventure style but with limited appeal during gameplay.

    • “Dungeon Legends 2: Tales of Light and Shadow (DL2) features agreeable looking graphics.”
    • “Retro adventure with graphics, DC/RPG mechanics, and focus on exploration.”
    • “The crisp HD artwork looks great, especially in the initial cutscenes and loading screens.”
    • “Graphics are poor, swinging a weapon feels weird, too many barrels on the ground with nothing of value in them, fights are boring.”
    • “It's a shame that the crisp HD artwork isn't used more than just the initial cutscenes and loading screens.”
    • “You can't change graphical settings to any meaningful degree beyond removing the drunken walking animation that constitutes a head bob.”

    The gameplay features a unique concept with a mix of FPS-style combat and magic, but it can feel slow and awkward initially, requiring time to adjust to its mechanics. While exploration is a strong focus, the RPG elements are basic, with limited melee combat and a cluttered, low-capacity inventory. Overall, the gameplay offers a retro adventure feel but may lack depth in story and mechanics.

    • “Limited melee combat complements a decent magic system providing fluid FPS-styled gameplay.”
    • “DC/RPG + graphics + mechanics = retro adventure with a focus on exploration.”
    • “It takes an hour or so to get used to the mechanics and quirks of the game and its gameplay.”
    • “A shallow story matches very basic RPG mechanics and a rudimentary inventory full of clutter, but not much carry capacity from floor to floor.”
    • “Limited melee combat complements a decent magic system providing fluid FPS styled gameplay.”

    The game's stability is currently compromised by buggy quests, which detracts from the overall experience despite their simplicity.

    • “Quests are very simple and unfortunately buggy at this moment.”

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game's replayability is limited due to its scripted quests and lack of dynamic elements, which reduce the challenge and freshness in subsequent playthroughs.

    • “Replay value is low as quests are scripted and the lack of dynamic elements lessens the challenge on subsequent playthroughs.”
