    Don't let the Minecraft name fool you. This is not a good game in any way shape or form. It's so unfinished and unpolished that they should be ashamed of releasing it like this.

The drops are so similar it makes virtually no difference what you actually get or equip. They left parts of the game intentionally unfinished to force you to buy later DLC packs which is something I absolutely hate from developers. An example being the slots you get for equipment. They didn't even follow the standard Minecraft experience...head chest legs and boots....you get literally 1 spot for "armor" that drops as a single set. I would expect them to start adding the actual pieces in the DLCs which is absurd.

    To sum up my experience with Minecraft dungeons....I have played better dungeon crawlers on flash games and it is totally not worth spending a dime on this travesty.    … Expand

    Kid friendly
    Cheap?

    Con's

    Terrible multiplayer options basically no multiplayer
    Limited enjoyment with boring and predictable gameplay
    Many bugs and glitches
    Static linear stages
    No classes
    Extremely limited content

    Despite the PC version having a severe Ownership Bug that prevented access to the game for countless hours, that's probably for the best because after actually playing for 30 minutes, I was bored with the stale and lack of any fresh ideas, it's basically the original Diablo with a minecraft paint job.

    Bugs, glitches all over the place - I couldn't even play for most of the first day and even when I could play, I didn't get any of the Hero Edition DLC that I paid for but that doesn't really matter because the biggest, biggest issue this game has is the absolutely horrendous excuse for multiplayer, it basically doesn't have it - its a lie, well a half lie. Multiplayer Online or co-op is all FRIENDS LIST based, meaning if you don't have any friends who play this game then its essentially single player, the multiplayer online is meaningless and attempts to mislead the player into thinking you can play with random people or join random games just like in most ARPG games, TL:DR You need 3 other friends on your friends list, that also play MC:D in order to play this game multiplayer.

    Since it's minecraft, the enemies are significantly lacking and are recycled over and over again, oh zombies...oh skeleton archers....and occasionally a more difficult souped up version might appear. But you'll not really care about it much because for any hardcore player, you'll probably get bored after the first few stages....that's right....STAGES. Area's don't flow together like in most ARPGS, where you start at one area and explore around vast areas these are fairly small areas with a goal each stage...complete it...return to camp...pick the next stage and so forth, its extremely basic.

    In a nutshell, this game on paper sounds like a good idea but its execution is heavily flawed with barely any content, horrible multiplayer options and is downright awful in all departments, I'd only recommend this for family game nights with the kids, hardcore people...or players who loved minecraft...steer well clear of this.    … Expand

It's a short game with many problems. Dungeons is a bare-bones ARPG that has so much potential, yet fails in almost every regard. Combat gets repetitive, the progression system is unique but uninteresting and unrewarding, and despite being under the Minecraft name, there is nothing of Minecraft effectively handled here. Building and crafting could be heavily used as an interesting and gun mechanic, like crafting a consumable weapon quickly to help fight waves of enemies. Sure, the aesthetic is there, but strip that away and you're left with a watered down experience that shows Microsoft's inability to evolve the Minecraft brand in any meaningful way.… Expand

    Very basic game, no depth at all. It's like those free "clicker" games on the app stores. It was fun for an hour, and you can get it for 1 euro / 1 USD with gamepass. Still not worth it for me. If it was early alpha I could have recommended it, if they had a roadmap and stuff for new updates.

That's it, the dungeons don't feel randomized at all because the end goal is always the same and there is only one way to get there. The difficulty is determined off of your recommended power level which as you go through the game you just naturally get gear that can destroy on the max difficulties. I think the biggest insult to injury is the only updates the game is gonna get is paid DLC.… Expand

    Вы думали это Диаблойд? Но это я, КЛИКЕР!!!
    А если серьезно, то в этой игре от диаблойда только название в строке жанров и внешние сходства. И все. Представьте летсплей по Диабло 3. Вы просто видите как персонаж бегает по локациям, одевает разноцветные вещи, и бьет мобов чтобы добротно и справедливо победить злодейского злодея и остановить его злые злодейские злодеяния.

Вы просто видите как персонаж бегает по локациям, одевает разноцветные вещи, и бьет мобов чтобы добротно и справедливо победить злодейского злодея и остановить его злые злодейские злодеяния. Вот разработчики посмотрели летсплей Диабло 3 или ПоЕ или еще какой изометрической игры диаблойдной и просто скопировали картинку. В Minecraft Dungeons вы тоже просто бегаете по локациям без сюжета, одеваете разноцветные вещи, которые ничем не отличаются, только уроном. Буквально закликиваете монстров и боссов обычными атаками, ибо скиллов здесь нет. Есть их аналоги, но их полезность под вопросом. И побеждаете главного злодея, которого так и зовут - Злодей. У игры потрясающий визуал, но кроме него ничего нет. Есть зачатки интересной прокачки с зачарованием, мне оно действительно понравилось. Есть зачатки нескольких классов. Есть зачатки интересного сюжета. Но это все в зачатке. 4 балла только за хорошую картинку, за интересный потенциал, за русский язык(который не без косяков. Практически не заметных, но если увидеть - будет мозолить глаза) и за небольшую цену относительно нынешних реалий.
    А, забыл сказать, что здесь всего 10 локаций по 20-30 минут, которые, если вы будете исследовать все вдоль и поперек, пытаться собрать более крутые вещи, то даже в лучшем случае отберут у вас часов 10 жизни. И все это за скромные 1500 рублей. Ах, да. Уже планируются сразу 2 длс. И знаете что в них будет? А хрен знает. Зато огромная кнопка на 1/6 экрана в меню выбора локаций будет вам недвусмысленно говорить, что длс уже можно купить. Что там будет? Новые локации. Может быть что-то еще, не знаю. Но смотря, как разработчики старательно сделали такую хорошую игру, я очень сомневаюсь, что там будет хоть что-то кроме набора новых уровней.
    Итог: Игра недоделаная, в ней ничего нет кроме визуала, но уже хотят, чтобы вы купили ДЛС.
    И каждый раз, когда я проходил уровень я сидел и думал "Когда же закончится этот уровень? Я хочу в TES Blades". Бесплатная мобильная игра, которая недавно вышла на Switch(именно там я и играл) приносит больше удовольствия, чем игра от разработчиков, сделавших игру не просто года, а целого десятилетия.    … Expand

It's the same 5 artifacts that for some reason, are your abilities in this game, and its the same with the items and weapons, only legendaries are unique and once you have them, you'll basically never get them unless you find one that's better after 6 missions. What could they fix? No fall damage, don't have that in this type of game, EVER. Infinite arrows, if you want balance with the bow mechanics, then instead of anchoring players when they run out of arrows until they find more, slow them down instead with the firing speed, just like the melee weapons. No one wants to be unable to use their bow because they have no arrows, its a dumb concept in this type of game. More mobs, they added a few different enemies, but overall, its still dull and repetitive, especially redstone golems, really? Secret chests is another issue, don't have that in this type of game, make use of all the countless empty space the levels have with actual chests instead. Rolling to get to other platforms is another problem I have, just doesn't feel right in this game. LIVES - HUGE PROBLEM! Don't punish players and make them restart an entire mission because they died! Add a system like durability or literally anything else! Nothing is more frustrating than that in this style of game. The menu music and company logo sounds are WAY too loud and can't be lowered, the Mojang Logo is near deafening when first starting the game. Overall, the amount of items found makes grinding for better gear really tedious, we need more abilities(Artifacts) and overall just make the game more fleshed out.

    Amusingly, Telltale’s Story Mode had more Minecraft in it than Dungeons does: it involved a little mining and crafting, at least. Dungeons features neither, and although its levels are made of blocks, they are indestructible. [Issue#247, p.67]
