    PC gamers had to wait six month longer for their version and it was not worth it, because free Pixel Dungeon for Android blows Brut@l out of the water. [04/2017, p.75]

    Brut@l is a visually unique game that initially feels fun and frantic, but quickly falls prey to a kind of frustration and tedium that will only appeal to a small subset of an already niche fan base. There is a ton of potential for greatness here, but that potential is ultimately squandered in the name of creating a dutiful tribute to a bygone era.

    Brut@l is entertaining, but it is not a great game. This Stormcloud Games project has been too ambitious and due to that it has not succeeded in any concrete aspect.

    If you love roguelikes, or have fond memories of the old ASCII games, you will absolutely enjoy Brut@l. Even if it lacks the depth of some of its competitors, it makes it up in spades in old-school retro charm, and will hook you for hours.
