Thanks Eye.If you’ve made it this far, you may be thinking I’m out to get this developer, and want him to fail. But that’s really not the case. I actually admire his ambition – creating an old-fashioned RPG with its own fantasy world is no mean feat. Combining The Lord of the Rings with The X-Files – it could be so good, if it were done right. And that’s why it’s so frustrating to see the kernel of a good idea being suffocated by its own poor implementation.
Alas, this just hasn’t got it right, and I can’t recommend anybody spend good money on it. There are so many better games you could spend your money on. Undertale costs only slightly more, and Downwell is a third of its price. The Dwarf Run is beyond saving, but if the developer goes back to the drawing board, and thinks things through a bit more, he could come back with something great.
