Great adaptation of the physical board game with fun and addictive character progression.
Offers a nostalgic vibe and a refreshing take on the dungeon crawler genre, with a good balance of skill and randomness.
High replay value due to its risk management mechanics and the challenge it presents, making each run engaging.

Frequent crashing and bugs significantly hinder the gameplay experience, making it frustrating for players.
The user interface is clunky and poorly designed, making it difficult to navigate and understand game mechanics.
The game heavily relies on RNG, leading to a punitively random experience that can feel unfair and discouraging.

replayability

The game offers solid replayability, particularly through its original mode that captures the board game experience, while the campaign mode allows for character optimization but may feel less replayable due to fixed dungeon seeds. Overall, players can enjoy varied gameplay experiences, catering to different preferences for agency and strategy.
- “The game is very fun for something so simple and it does have replay value.”
- “This PC edition comes with a campaign mode that allows you to completely optimize your character to win, featuring dungeons with the same seed and a mechanic that lets you fully deck out your character with unlockable shop cards. This smartly caters to players who want more agency, though this mode may be less replayable due to the dungeons having the same seeds. That's when I'd assume you'd transfer to the original mode of the game that perfectly recreates the board game experience.”
- “Otherwise, this PC edition comes with a campaign mode which allows you to completely optimize your character to win (dungeons with the same seed and a mechanic that lets you fully deck out your character with unlockable shop cards). However, this mode of play will be less replayable due to the dungeons having the same seeds. That's when I'd assume you'd transfer to the original mode of the game that perfectly recreates the board game experience.”
- “The game is very fun for something so simple, and it does have replay value.”
- “The lack of variety in the dungeons makes it hard to stay engaged after the first playthrough.”

The gameplay features a campaign mode that allows for character optimization through unlockable shop cards, providing players with a sense of agency. However, the replayability may be limited due to the dungeons having the same seeds, encouraging a shift back to the original mode for a more authentic board game experience.
- “This PC edition features a campaign mode that allows you to fully optimize your character to win. The dungeons have the same seed, and there's a mechanic that lets you deck out your character with unlockable shop cards. This smartly caters to players who want more agency, although this mode may be less replayable due to the dungeons having the same seeds. That's when I would assume you'd transition to the original mode of the game that perfectly recreates the board game experience.”
- “The gameplay is incredibly engaging, with a perfect balance of strategy and action that keeps you on your toes. Each decision feels impactful, and the mechanics are intuitive yet deep enough to allow for various playstyles.”
- “I love how the gameplay encourages exploration and experimentation. The mechanics are well-designed, making it easy to learn but challenging to master, which keeps the experience fresh and exciting.”
- “The campaign mode allows you to completely optimize your character to win, but it suffers from a lack of replayability due to the dungeons having the same seeds.”
- “While the game offers a mechanic that lets you fully deck out your character with unlockable shop cards, it ultimately feels less engaging because of the repetitive dungeon layouts.”
- “The original mode of the game perfectly recreates the board game experience, but the campaign mode's limited variety makes it feel less rewarding in the long run.”
