Guess the correct letter to instantly dispatch the monster, or risk combat damage if incorrect. Test your wits against crosswords of increasing complexity and monsters with deadly abilities with one of three classes with their own unique skills: The Barbarian, a muscled berserker who lives for the thrill of battle and feeds his rage with the blood of his enemies.

Too early to tell about actual gameplay mechanics, as early on I'm finding them somewhat confusing in terms of how my various skills benefit me and monster behaviour. One apparent issue is the crosswords themselves are much too easy, at least early on. Different difficulty categories might be required. Ridley Scott did not direct 2001: A Space Odyssey. (And the worst thing you can do in a word/trivia game is place its factual credibility in question.) Overall though, this looks to have high potential at least, to be fun. violentv Well-Known Member Nov 4, 2010 912 0 16 #6 violentv, Oct 23, 2012 Yeah..guess I will be giving this a miss. drelbs Well-Known Member Jun 25, 2009 11,200 7 38 #7 drelbs, Oct 23, 2012 Snap, this came out of left field! Sucks that there are factual errors - crosswords too easy is fine by me, I've always sucked at crosswords. Sloany Well-Known Member Sep 24, 2012 219 0 16 England, Devon, Plymouth #8 Sloany, Oct 23, 2012 Enjoying this so far. Difficulty starts off easy at first but I find it gets harder. Lost one game on the 4th puzzle cos I didn't know what the most Northan us state was.... I am English tho so I don't blame myself..... madmaxmedia Well-Known Member Mar 28, 2009 62 0 6 #9 madmaxmedia, Oct 23, 2012 Alaska Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #10 Exact-Psience, Oct 23, 2012 Yeah... this woulda been a blast playing on the larger screen. Vovin ð® Spam Police ð Nov 28, 2009 6,514 3 38 Germany #11 Vovin, Oct 23, 2012 Confirmed: it's really fun so far. Takes rogue-like to another level. It is easy at first, but becomes challenging soon. I also like the retro style of the game. If you're into crosswords somehow, give it a try. Witcher77 New Member May 10, 2012 1 0 0 #12 Witcher77, Oct 23, 2012 Original ! And absolutely loving the game will be giving 5 stars, 1 request this game would be even better with Game Center intergration with achievements pretty please make it happen ? ) ItouchBrett Well-Known Member Dec 28, 2008 770 0 16 #13 ItouchBrett, Oct 23, 2012 5 stars. This is great. aceyprime Well-Known Member Apr 23, 2010 293 0 0 #14 aceyprime, Oct 23, 2012 Really novel game - enjoying it a lot. However, I have experienced a lot of word repetition in the lower levels - a larger collection of clues would really help this. Puce Moose Well-Known Member Sep 1, 2011 119 0 0 #15 Puce Moose, Oct 23, 2012 Does this game feature any kind of map exploration, or does it just move from battle to battle? Syen Well-Known Member Aug 5, 2012 320 0 0 #16 Syen, Oct 23, 2012 This seems awesome! I think i will try it soon Nolithius Member Oct 23, 2012 18 0 0 Game Developer http://www.nolithius.com #17 Nolithius, Oct 23, 2012 My sincere thanks for spreading the word on Crossword Dungeon; as some of you mentioned, it did come out of left field as I did very little to no marketing for it. @sweetdiss, @violentv, @Exact-Psience, going Universal is one of the top items on my to-do list. Ultimately, I had to make the call to continue enhancing the game or to release it and update later, so I chose the latter. @Gabrien, apologies on any factual inconsistencies! Let me know if you find any more and I will be sure to correct them in the next update. Also on the to-do: build a webservice-driven content management sytem for quick updates not requiring new binaries. @Sloany, I tried to avoid making the content as little ethnocentric to the US as possible; hope that's the only word that's given you grief! @Witcher77, Game Center integration is also in the works. I've got a lot of updates planned, as you can see, hehe. @aceyprime, I'll certainly be adding more content soon, thanks for the feedback! Thanks again to everyone for your support and feedback, please keep it coming! ducksFANjason Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2012 128 0 0 E-Discovery data technician Southern California #18 ducksFANjason, Oct 23, 2012 The game looks great and the dev is responsive! I'm in! jamsie07 Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2012 82 1 8 #19 jamsie07, Oct 23, 2012 So is it like last as long as you can until you lose. Then start all over again?
