What’s behind that door?
Let the tears flow.Dungeon of the Endlessis a game with an easy lyricism.
It is a bright, cruel poetry of doors and what lies behind them.
You have crashed your spaceship and now you are underground somewhere.
A catacomb of doors.
You must get a crystal from one end of each maze to another, but along the way?
Endless Dungeon
You control several people with their own quirks and abilities.
You move between rooms gathering the threads of an economy together.
You spend money on turrets and other treasures that you’re free to place in certain spots.
Enemies when discovered attack in waves, headed right for the crystal.
Dungeon of the Endless is absolutely stellar.
I love it to its melancholy roots.
It’s a one-off, or so I thought.
Because here’s Endless Dungeon from the same team.
And Endless Dungeon looks like…
Okay, Endless Dungeon looks like a hero shooter, or a hero brawler.
Heroes, anyway - a touch ofOverwatch, of Valorant, of Samus in weird shouldery places.
No crash landings here.
They are colourful, chunky characters - lithe assassins, clanking droids, rusty gunslingers.
But deep down, the flow is the same.
And the difficulty is the same.
Cor, that difficulty!
I love what I’ve seen.
I love the hub, this cobbled-together bar that will only grow and grow in richness.
Let the tears flow, said Dungeon of the Endless.
In Endless Dungeon they are still flowing.
