The brilliance of this game is likely to be lost on those seeking an idle time-waster as evident by the negative reviews. This is ultimately a showcase in probability through doing. This would be fantastic game to show to people studying math or game design at any school level. Especially when if they chronicle how it makes them feel during their play session.

Fantastic budget remake of a PS2 gem.

This is a very good tower defense game. It's not quite what I was hoping for after nearly 13 years of waiting, but I really enjoyed my time with it. It's got good characters, good art, good music, and good TD puzzles. It's worth your 14 or so hours.

Dungeon Antiqua is a cool little dungeon crawler that's worth your time. It's not super long, you likely won't be putting 100s of hours into it, but you'll enjoy your short time with it if what you enjoy is classic dungeon crawling.

I found this game by doing something I normally don't do on steam. Search a specific tag. In this case it was "Dungeon Crawler". I saw the art went "oh that looks bad, let's how bad." Then saw the overwhelming positive rating. The reviews said what I'm going to say: The art is kinda bad, the writing is pretty cringy, and this is one of the best games I've played all year.

Let me expand on that though.

Indeed, the art looks sort of like if you combined one of those "how to draw manga" books and flash, but it's really only the character portraits that are the major offender. The more you play the more it grows on you. It is at least very consistent. After my 40 or so hours with it the game my biggest complaint about the art is that there aren't enough options for character appearances.

Now the writing... It's definitely the weakest part of the game. There is a dang "Arrow in the Knee" joke in this game! Ugh! But unlike a lot of indie games that try to be funny by having an embarrassed irreverence about itself, it's 100% earnest. Which is sort of refreshing.

You should check this game if you like punishing resource management and incredibly well crafted tile-based tactics with some proc-gen characters. Wildermyth and XCOM: Enemy Unknown are good touchstones for they style of game this is.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

It's probably my favorite game of this year. Pretty much exactly what I wanted and more from. They made a game laser targeted at me specifically and still exceeded my expectations.

They essentially made a mid-budget-PS1 jRPG in 2024. It has some very "dated" elements (like only being able to save at inns or save points), but is incredibly polished and detailed. It's a slow burn to start but once you get the HQ it really starts to shine.

I highly recommend it.

This game is an incredible puzzle game with some really interesting and unexpected twists.

This game is a solid metroidvania and has a beautiful pixel art. Highly recommend it!

It's one of those games where you could say something like "This is a like a PS2 game (complimentary)". It's focused on what it is while still exploring the possibilities. It doesn't take itself too seriously, while also being sincere. It's just a Fun video game. The mechanics are fun, the writing is fun, the voice actors sound like they had fun. It's a good time.

This game is neat. The energy mechanic gets some getting used to but it adds a sort of tension that I haven't really seen in a game before. It forces you to identify moments of rest and really pay attention to boss patterns. I think the abilities you get a pretty uninteresting but well designed around. The story is fine. It gets the job done and has some unique things going for it. I would recommend it!
