Dungeons of Dreadrock 2 - The Dead King's Secret

秘宝を教団に届けるため、巫女がダンジョンを潜っていくパズルアクション。 シリーズ二作目で、なんとなく前作プレイ済み推奨な難度だったように思います。話も繋がっていますので、前作をやってからが良さそうです。 翻訳はけっこうぎこちなくて、その状態のまま声優さんによる日本語ボイスが付いているのでちょっと気まずかったです。 パズルは前作同様、シレンやトルネコを思わせるマス目移動ながらリアルタイムで状況が変わるシステムでした。 失敗を繰り返しながら敵の動きや罠の出方を見て、どう動いたら攻略できるのか考えるのが楽しかったです。ヒント機能があるので、詰まりすぎた時には助けてもらいました。 軽めのパズルが好きな方には前作と合わせておすすめです。次も楽しみにしています。

Dungeons of Dreadrock 2 - The Dead King's Secret is a mixed bag. I will try to give my honest opinion on this sequel. The story and presentation are much better than in the first game. This game has a hub world and that is a nice change, it doesn't change much but there are some puzzles to solve in the hub area. It is a longer game but I am not sure if that is a good thing. The hub world has 4 chapters, 100 levels + some hub world puzzles and a short intro section. The main problem with this game is that the first 50 levels feel the same as the first game. At one point I had to check if I was playing the first game. That is never a good sign, boring first 50 levels with weak puzzles and most of them are all about timing and trial and error. Based on that I wouldn't recommend this one but..... The second part of the game was really well made. Puzzles get tricky and creative, less focused on timing and overall a solid second part of the game. Night and day (1st half and 2nd half) if you ask me. It is an indie puzzle game so the criteria can't be the same as when reviewing a AA or AAA title. There is much more to like than to dislike. Would I like to see Dungeons of Dreadrock 3 ? Not really, only because I think you can't squeeze more out of this formula. I can recommend this but not at full price. Wait for a sale and check it out because it is a solid game.

Previously I've played the first part on mobile, so now I was pleasantly surprised to find a sequel on Steam. This game is a fine continuation of the series. Puzzles are fun to solve, visual style is cute, story is touching and the main music theme is beautiful. I'll be waiting for a third part. My only complaint would be an awful translation, probably AI-made. I realize that for an indie developer paying actual humans for translating the game to various languages might be too expensive. But the first part did have a good translation, so the absence of such in a sequel is a bit disappointing.

Basically, DoD and DoD2 events happened at the same time. You get to control a girl you met in chapter 5 of DoD. She is actually the daughter of Flame who came into that dungeon to complete her mission [spoiler](to collect King's ring)[/spoiler]. You can complete this game in about 5-6 hours. Some puzzles are hard to understand in this game. I had to check YouTube gameplay to get past some chapters, which took around 30-40 minutes. Compared to the first game, this one has some upgrades. Improved animations, themes and additional visual illustrations are noticeable. You can speed up cutscenes. There are new types of enemies and new lore. You often sit beside bonfires to meditate and gather answers. The game also features some deep, sad parts [spoiler](a good guy sacrificed his life for you)[/spoiler]. Overall, this game pleased me. It contains two endings: one canon [spoiler](connected to DoD's ending) [/spoiler] and other non-canon [spoiler](actually, it was the protagonist's main mission)[/spoiler]. What I didn’t like is that there are some creatures in this game that don’t hurt you, but you have to or can kill them. Even though you can kill bosses [spoiler](this game includes a few boss fights while the first game didn't include any)[/spoiler], you cannot kill some NPCs [spoiler](satan-like creatures and living creatures that come from water)[/spoiler]. Equipment design is a bit fuzzy because items suddenly become unusable or unavailable. Well, it amazed me how I met CharizardX in this game, just as I met Charizard in the first game. Consider this as my feedback. After all, it’s a good game. Waiting for DoD3, backstory of some characters and what is going to happen next!

This game is completely underrated. When you play it you realize the craft and the deep thought they have put into designing it. I wish most of the games I play were so well thought as this one. It´s also quite immersive, and extremely cheap. 10/10

Loved the first game and this is just as good. Great story with all the puzzles. Very fun. Both games are equally enjoyable. I would highly recommend for anyone who likes retro like puzzle games.

This is a seriously flawed game with tons of scripting errors that can get you softlocked, and stupid game design that requires you to constantly check the hint button on the screen to figure out what is going on. While it's technically possible to beat the game without hints, there are many ridiculously confusing things you need to do (For example, throw a rock onto a patch of land so an ally can use it, with little explanation given). The hints sort of destroy the challenge but if you don't use them you'll probably waste a ton of time only to get frustrated once you see what you need to do. With that said, I really like the feel of this game and it is at its heart a puzzle game. It's just that if you compare it to a game like Zelda where the rules are very intelligently laid out this is more of a "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" kind of game. It would've been better if they just made an easier game and removed the hints because they just distract from the game play. This is a decent length game that takes about six hours to finish but much of the time you spend completing it will probably be mulling around backtracking enemies so you can position them correctly which is not fun puzzle design. This review is more neutral but if you can get past the bugs and the broken design it's not the worst thing ever and is, at times, fun to play.

Отличное продолжение первой игры. Не просто добавка из похожих уровней с теми же персонажами, а элегантно сплетенная с первой частью история одного из встреченных немногочисленных дружелюбных персонажей. Добавлено пожалуй даже больше механик, чем было в первой игре; много интересных новых монстров. Чаще встречаются спаренные уровни, где надо с первого пройти на второй, что-то сделать, и вернуться на предыдущий. В конце даже есть разные концовки (не беспокойтесь, пропустить выбор никак не получится) и толстый намек на третью (будущую) игру. Из минусов - иногда "заедающее" управление, когда точно нажал кнопку вовремя, видишь начало анимации движения героя, но опасность все равно успевает первой.

这一代作者的技术力明显提升了，有几张滚动的大房间玩得很爽 甚至还做了一个大厅连通四个主题boss房的设计 削弱了一代那种纯一本道的感觉，脑海里的地图感更大了 [spoiler]特别特别喜欢有几次和一代女主同屏时的左右分镜，你是天才镜头导演吗[/spoiler] 解谜的水平还是一直在线每个房间解谜都玩得很开心，唯一不太满意的是两个结局都略潦草 感觉全部的重点都是二代女主是怎么协助一代女主成功杀死亡灵王的过程 但法师妹妹自己的结局就只有几句话带过了，不说动画吧连张图片都没有 通关之后个人而言还有一个未解之谜如鲠在喉也没得到解释 [spoiler]在冥想与祈祷这关篝火径直向右进墙里有个带地刺陷阱的隐藏房间 因为地刺堵门只能变成蝙蝠飞进去，但蝙蝠又无法与隐藏房间的那本书互动 而且这一关不与上下两关连通，无法去找投掷物或者是怪物帮忙触发地刺 有没有成功进去的好心人可以告诉我那本书到底写了什么TAT[/spoiler]

je le trouve personnellement meilleur que le premier. je croise les doigts pour une suite, ou un spin off dans le même univers / dans le même style de jeu. Franchement, je ne regrette en rien l'argent que j'ai dépensé dedans.
