    Much like its predecessor, Devious Dungeon 2 provides a simple yet entertaining rogue-lite adventure that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Sadly, a few poor design choices from the first game have carried over, but in the face of its improvements, these niggling flaws are fairly easy to overlook. In summary, if you enjoyed what came before, you’re bound to find some value here.

    If you enjoyed the first one, then sure, you may enjoy Devious Dungeon 2. Just know that it very much feels like the same game.

Devious Dungeon was a game that Ratalaika games delivered to Xbox One gamers no so long ago, and I enjoyed its simple approach. I was looking forward to playing the newest installment of the now series Devious Dungeon 2 and thankfully I’m pleased to say that once again contains a lot of enjoyment and while it doesn’t have any significant improvements of notable mention, it still delivers more right than it gets wrong. Level design is one thing it certainly get correct, as is evident in each level you come across due to the creativity that’s present within. Controlling your character in these levels is also well balanced the control remains tight and responsive as did its predecessor. The games balance is on par and lets you progress without any unnecessary frustration. Each character has its own unique ability which in turn means you have to go about things differently with each character. In short, if you enjoyed the first game then I have no doubt that you’ll enjoy Devious Dungeon 2. It stays close to the original formula and even though it lacks a little bit in terms of depth in some areas it still manages to be very fun for the most part. The price is of admission is spot on as Ratalaika games is known for delivering fun games at an affordable level for all to enjoy.… Full Review »

    Devious Dungeons Is another which seems to be a weekly release from Ratalaika Games. It is also a sequel that may actually be better than the original. I had so much fun with it, and it is a lot different then the regular Ratalaika game as well considering the Achievements aren't super easy to grab. You have to actually complete the game, and the game isn't super easy. It is a blast though, and it is loaded with replay value. The levels are random generated so it always feels different. There are also three different characters to choose from who have different weapons and abilities so that adds to the replay as well. You have a Warrior who is tougher, and fights up close. A rogue who is quick and can double jump. He can fight close or ranged. You also have a Mage who does ranged attack. They all level up in three areas hit points, critical, and damage. You can get XP by defeating enemies, finding mini bosses and completing side quests, or by finding Journals in hidden rooms. You can also level up by purchasing weapons, armor, relics, and potions in the shop. They all have different abilities that improve you. The weapons also have element damage like fire, toxins, and freeze. They add additional damage after the first strike..
    There are six different worlds, and they are broke down to 5 areas. Each area has 3 levels, and a boss fight is in the last section. You have to complete 3 levels in a row without death to advance to the next. You will probably play a few levels over trying to level up. You won't mind though because they are never the same. The random generation just makes it always a fresh feeling. Each world has it's own type of enemies, and traps so your always looking forward to the next area.They also have their own unique boss. I loved all the boss fights, they made you think, and plan your attack.
    The Achievements were also fun as usual with Ratalaika games, but not as easy. The game is a nice challenge and I enjoyed that. I also enjoyed the retro look to the game, and feel. The music fit perfectly with this class game feel. This game could have fit perfect among the glory days of the NES,SNES,and Genesis. I just think it was really well developed, because it delivers a ton of replay value even though it's a six dollar game. You can't really ask for more than that.

    Pros: Classic Look and Feel
    Tons of Replay Value
    Fun Achievements
    Good Challenge
    Great Value

    Cons: Some the early bosses really simple

    Overall: 8.4 A random generated dungeon game that delivers a ton of game play with a very affordable price tag.    … Full Review »
