Editor review
Dungeon Mini is a basic dungeon crawler with procedurally generated maps and simple combat. Twenty floors. Three character classes. Heavy monetisation between floors.
What works is the basic dungeon-crawler loop. Walk corridors, fight enemies, collect loot, descend. The format is functional.
What does not work is the procedural generation. Floors feel interchangeable. No memorable encounters. No unique boss fights between standard combat. Procedural without curation produces a string of forgettable spaces.
Tested over two Cross-City Line train sessions. Touch is the natural input. Mouse and keyboard work.
Where the game tries hardest is the class-variety. Three classes (warrior and rogue, plus mage) with different attack styles. The class differences are real, though the procedural floors do not give them enough situations to shine.
Where I would push back is the monetisation between floors. Ads after every floor. Paid skip option. The basic dungeon-crawler loop does not justify this monetisation pressure.
Two-and-a-half stars. Functional dungeon-crawler with thin procedural variety and heavy monetisation.
