    Loved Dungelot 1, hated dungelot 2, bought Rune Keeper and said "screw dungelot"

    So, how is this game compared to Rune Keeper?

    Loved playing the beta. Bought the game to support the developers.

    I loved Dungelot 2. It drove me nuts that it never got finished. But this version basically replaces it.

    I also played Runestone Keeper quite a bit. I do like that game a lot, but I felt like I was never making any progress.
    This game is a bit less serious, a bit more light hearted, but really it's great. If you liked D1, you'll love this one.

    If you mean Runestone Keeper, then I can say that that game is a bit of a mess. It has none of the elegance between interweaving systems of say, Desktop Dunngeons (oops third time I've mentioned that game in this thread). See my review in the RSK thread for an expanded write up. As for a direct comparison to D3, I'll still need more time with it but am already liking what I see. More so than RSK.

    Keeping in mind that this a rogue-like, how is the difficulty? Is it forgiving or really tough?

    I beta tested, and I bought to support the devs. Love dungelot series, bought all of em. This game is awesome. Good polished feel. Fun to keep playing over and over.

    Of all the things to choose for an icon, why the cow?

    Also, not that it matters but when the download competed the beta icon shows, not the one that you see in the store.

    I hope this game will be a huge success.

    Very early feedback:

    - Some of the text on the character status screen (in-dungeon) is way too small, but still readable. Particularly the buff/debuff section the upper right and some of the text in the quests section. Just detracts from some of the overall polish and cohesiveness. This is on an iPhone 6 so not the smallest screen size either.

    - I'm constantly getting a "player Authed" prompt when ever I start or re-enter the game, which details an ID and Alias. Maybe something that was in testing and slipped through to the final release?

    - App icon can be improved. Obviously not of critical importance.


    Edit: Hoping the game isn't too easy to appeal to a wider audience. So far i'm going through the motions with little thought for strategy needed. Hopefully it gets a lot harder later , which I suspect is probably the case.

    Loving this so far. Great character! Great production values. I was worried when I saw ham......those who played 2 know what I mean!!!

    I will say that there are som typos & some edges are off the screen a little (like your coin count at the top left of the screen).

    Liking the game a lot so far, thankyou for taking the premium route. Not sure if it's intentional but the player is able to start Act II and III right from the start even though it has a lock. Looking forward to playing more.

    How do you craft? I had a pop up saying I can craft now and some items say they're for crafting but I can't figure it out.

    I'm surprised it wasn't the Goblin King like the other two.
    They should give a nod to David Bowie and give him crazy 80s hair :)

    During the dungeon if you go to the inventory there will now be a craft button. You've probably figured it out by now but just in case.
