    Insanely shallow, will take about 4 hours for you to see all the content twice. Feels like the game isn't even complete and they are already advertising that there will be DLC. Would be more interesting if they could add anything compelling or enjoyable to do in the game before trying to sell additional content.

Feels like the game isn't even complete and they are already advertising that there will be DLC. Would be more interesting if they could add anything compelling or enjoyable to do in the game before trying to sell additional content.

    Currently all you can do is increase the numbers on the exact same items you've had access to since the start of the game.
    There are about 5 different enemies across every map in the game (all 9 of them).
    You get 6 item slots made up of a melee weapon, armor, ranged weapon, and 3 artifacts. Your artifacts are the only thing that give you anything to do in the game, as they are what become your abilities, and usually you use one artifact for movement because you absolutely CRAWL in this game any time you don't have a speed buff.
    There are no classes,and levels don't feel rewarding to earn because you just earn an enchantment point to apply randomly rolled buffs to the same gear.
    This game is just a boring grinding simulator with absolutely no pay-off. Movement is terrible clunky, as you get caught on every random block on the map.
    Every boss fight boils down to the same attack pattern where they shoot at you, and leave time for you to shoot back before dodging the next slow moving pellet.
    Pushing into the higher difficulty levels is even more boring than the initial sprint, where they just crank up the HP of the enemies and they just become damage sponges.

    No mining. No crafting. No personality. I had hopes at first when it looked like the "camp" was starting to expand with NPC's, but there are just 2 NPC's that you can gamble at with your emeralds, which are gained by trashing your old gear and found in maps.

    No part of the game really felt satisfying at any point after the first few minutes. It all got old very quickly, it's just an artificial "item level" grind with no interesting or innovative content whatsoever, nothing to discover after the first few minutes and pretty much just boils down to colors moving around on your screen while you press 1 2 3 over and over.

    The good:
    It is fun. If you like to lot this is your game. Rare rewards after a while of play

    The bad:
    It ends very soon (it is very short). We already have a list of content and post-launch expansions (suspect)

    Lo Meh !:
    It could well have been an original Minecraft Mod or Minecraft: Story Mode. It's in the Game Pass, so the only thing you could lose is time

    The gameplay is as follows: You find weapons and artifacts. You can wield a melee weapon and bow at the same time (arrows are pickups). The artifacts are powers with a cooldown or other requirements like killing enemies. Each thing you find has enchantments that alter how the weapon/armor performs.

    You fight enemies, find chests, beat the boss. That's pretty much it.

    Things that might help you decide if it's worth getting for you:

    1) The 'plot' is like a poorly-written children's book and that is pretty much a testament to the whole game. It's for children. If you are a child, you will likely be satisfied with it. If you aren't a child, you can do better for your money.

    2) You don't customize your character. You choose from some presets and you can pay for more. This is a Mojang issue where they got greedy after the success of Java.

    3) A very, very short game. We knocked it off in a single afternoon and we were taking our time on the day of release. We also went back and replayed levels to see if we would get better equipment.

    4) A blatant cash grab. This game is not long or complex enough to justify DLC.

    Personally, I'd say you could enjoy playing it on Game Pass, but it's not worth a buy. This isn't a game you will enjoy playing over and over again. For me, one day of mediocre gameplay isn't worth a $25 price tag. If you're a parent looking to buy for your kids, I honestly suggest you go with something else. This isn't going to entertain your kids for long. If they really want to play it, spend the $15 to get them game pass access. They can play it there and have access to a lot of other games.

    Don't let Mojang milk your kids for their pocket money. They've been good at it since Java.    … Expand

    Great gameplay and co-op, it's a really fun game. I just hope that Mojang can update the game with more content later

    It's an extremely short game even for 20€. When you play it it's not very challenging at first. The 2nd time you play in adventure mode it's very challenging and without an good armor and stuff maybe impossible. I also need to say that there it's not very skill based. It has absolutely nothing to do with Minecraft itself

    I have 2 gripes though:
    1 - The final boss was a pain in the butt, but I think that was partly down to point 2.
    2 -The way weapons/equipment are delved out is far too random. From level 15ish to 25 I was stuck with the same sword as I was never given a better one. I had an epicly strong crossbow, but a rubbish sword. My wife would get good stuff, but there's no way of swapping equipment between players or buying specific bits either, it's all random.
    But I really enjoyed playing this. It has very little to do with Minecraft other than the graphics, but yeah, it's on the Game Pass, which if you own an Xbox and don't have then there's something wrong with you!    … Expand

    Not a lot of content right away, if it wasn’t for it being on game pass I wouldn’t have played it, barely 4h of content unless you want to play it again on a harder difficulty, don’t worry their will be paid dlc to help expand the 3 hours of content

    Minecraft Dungeons é uma obra prima dos Dungeon Crawlers. NÃO É MINECRAFT, vc NÃO VAI minerar nada e nem contruir nada.

    Inicialmente o jogo contém "apenas" 10 fases que podem ser jogadas e 6 níveis de dificuldade, mas abre-se mais 3 (que eu encontrei) e tem vários easter eggs e segredos no jogos, além de um mapa secreto.
    O jogo em si não tem Classes mas, vc pode ser a classe que vc quiser baseando-se nos itens que usar, portanto já encontrei 8 possibilidades diferentes de builds. Considerando se tratar de Minecraft/Mojango pode esperar muito conteudo sendo adicionado no jogo, e sem choradeira pois se vocês não sabem TODO CONTEÚDO EXTRA de minecraft É PAGO, não sei porque seria diferente agora.
    Ansioso pelas atualizações que com certeza vão trazer muito mais para a campanha, novos personagens, construções, habilidades e etc...o jogo tem potencial demais !    … Expand

    It's easy to write this off as a 'baby's first dungeon-crawler,' but it's proven itself to be something more; something that transcends that viewpoint. It's a great exploration of the Minecraft universe, and shows what a developer is capable of outside of the creative block hellscape of the original survival format. It's fair to say that it's a real blast to play with responsive and chunky gameplay that is mostly unhampered by a couple of small flaws. Highly recommended to anyone who loves a bit of a bash, especially with friends!

    A decent RPG that looks like Minecraft and sports characters from Minecraft but otherwise has nothing in common with the well-known miner and builder namesake. As an RPG it is very accessible with several ways to influence the difficulty but feels very light on content and character customization. Best for those that are looking for an introduction into the genre or just for some light entertainment.

    With only the blocky aesthetic and familiar monsters to show for its heritage, whether you're here for the Minecraft or the Dungeons, you'll feel that much more could have been excavated from both. [Issue#347, p.96]
