    Always an instabuy. I even loved War of Eclipse despite grinding issues.

    This one is by far the most streamlined, and the most fair with rate of gold gained upon launch.

    It's a keeper.

    Games beautiful, very satisfied with the mechanics, art, sound & atmosphere. Love being able to summon certain units after you gain enough souls.

    Although you can only equip one equipment at a time? I have a chest & sheild but can only equip one. Am I wrong here?

    Having so much fun with this!

    Ah when you die you loose everything!

    Edit: didn't see you can buy insurance -_-

    When you die, sometimes you get a life potion that heals you completely. Is that random?

    I died and the insurance went up to 2k gold. Is there a max on the amount it goes up?

    Ah so this is rogue-like, it's totally awesome! This just added another level of excitement. Stay alive, or loose everything :p

    This is good to hear. While I like everything else about Game Stew games, the low rate of gold gained/need to grind has always put me off a bit. Looking forward to trying this one.

    Yes, I love all Game Stew games. But I also hate them... the need for grinding is getting worse with every release. And basically, I like this one the most, but the grinding, oh boy. Annoying. I need so much more gold than I can get while playing without losing motivation.

    Basically an amazing game... if it was way more balanced.

    That's why I stopped playing Tower of Fortune 2 and won't be buying this one.

    This ones totally amazing. It isn't a grind, it's tons of fun. Currently level 10. Really hope they add a fourth dungeon considering the games over after you beat the third.

    I would so love to see an endless mode in one of their games.

    I love the gameplay, the mechanics, and the overall aesthetic. But my god, this game just rakes you over the coals. Constantly. Was hoping for a (just slightly) deeper Tower of Fortune, but it's almost even more random.

    Does the dev ever come to Toucharcades forums? Would love to hear from him. Seems we all have some good suggestions for him.

    More content, maybe an endless mode? Endless would fit this game perfectly.

    There are eight dungeon in the game and one huge 99 floor dungeon can be unlocked after first ending.

    Yes, we come to listen all your suggestions. Maybe not so often (only two people but need to handle all the things, I'm almost exhausted...) but definitely. :)

    We do have a 99 floor dungeon after you finish 8 dungeon. It is just like an endless mode but better than that, you get high score, new loot, 2 new incarnations, final boss to challenge (you need to face him 3 times in different floor and he changes shape and gets stronger each time) and a final ending. And the best is you WILL NOT die in that dungeon. LoL

    Your team drew a lot of inspiration from Dark Souls this time. Haha I love it.

    Also one suggestion is to include a gold doubler as an in app purchase. I would totally buy it. Especially since this time around you've got a second currency to limit progress.

    Thanks for the suggestion, gold doubler is a great idea, we will discuss it and even can't put it in devil shard (it's a big issue about game balancing, cash flow, playing time, game progress...), we probably will put it in the next game. :)

    We do drew some inspiration from Dark Souls, even our game's name is DS, too. We like the feeling that a nameless hero struggle, and fight alone in the dark way, face the unknown and fight for the faith.

    Great to see the devs here! I have to say, this is by far the most accessible title from game stew so far. While i liked the random nature of the slot machine mechanics from tower of fortune, I think that the match three system is more fun. Key to success is the fact, that you don't have to always match three tiles but can build up setups for bigger combos and avoid triggering skulls.

    Graphic style is amazing as always. I will keep on playing as long as it takes to unleash the blind god of madness upon my foes!
