Minecraft Dungeons is a blast to play. You have all the mechanics of a fun dungeon crawler with a cute aesthetic. I just hope they add in more things to do in the game before people get bored and move on.
What is currently in the game is extremely fun, easily one of the most accessible and engaging action RPGs of the generation. The mixture of Minecraft aesthetics and fast-paced ARPG tropes creates a familiar yet unique formula that can satisfy purists and newcomers alike, both in solo and co-op. The choices made to have a game that accommodates less experienced players takes a toll on the title’s variety and depth, but at the low entry price point of 19.99 USD/EUR or through Game Pass it seems like a no-brainer. There’s certainly a lot we hope to see in future updates, and there’s been already...
Bar a rather unexciting story, a little lack of nuance in the combat and a couple of misgiving regarding couch co-op, there is a hell of a lot to love and enjoy about Minecraft Dungeons. Rather miraculously, it's managed to pull off being both a game for all types of Minecraft fans and those seeking a challenging dungeon crawler. At launch, it's a little concise sure, but chasing that new loot means I'm not done with it yet, and likely won't be for a while still.
A lightweight dungeon crawler that keeps Minecraft's playful humour.
Minecraft Dungeons is a competent hack n' slash RPG; nothing more, nothing less. It has the outward charm of the creative masterpiece that inspired it, but very little depth. What is here is fun for a time in solo or co-op, but don't expect it to hold your attention long-term.
A satisfying dungeon-crawling twist on the iconic Minecraft formula, which emphasizes loot-gathering and exciting co-op.There are few gaming IPs seemingly more tailor-made for a dungeon crawling spin-off than the iconic Minecraft. Indeed, [...]
Minecraft has come a long way in the past decade. From going through its alpha and beta stages, to getting a full release, a Tell-Tale Games story, and even a movie. Yet, for some reason, Minecraft Dungeons still felt like it was completely out of left field when it was announced and we saw its Diablo-clone style of gameplay. It wouldn’t be fair to discredit the game before getting to play it though. To be fair, it was actually one of the most highly anticipated games of the year, behind ga...
While Minecraft Dungeons is a fantastic title to introduce your kids to isometric action RPGs, the lack of content and missing quality of life features makes the game fall short.
At its heart, Minecraft Dungeons is the sort of release that feels like it rides on the coattails of greater games a little too much. If this game did not have the Minecraft branding, it’s not much of a leap to assume that it would scarcely garner any attention based purely on its own merits. The gear system, combat, level design, and presentation is all fine and entertaining in its own right, but there’s little here that we could point to that elevates this game alongside or above peers such as Torchlight II, Diablo III or Path of Exile. Bearing this in mind, we’d give Minecraft Dungeons a ve...
Minecraft Dungeons is the latest spin-off of Mojang’s iconic franchise. This time around, you get a CRPG-lite that takes on the formula made popular by Diablo. It seems like a winning idea, and I enjoyed my preview of the game at E3 last year. However, I expected that there would be more to Minecraft Dungeons upon its full release.
Developers Mojang and Double Eleven have now taken the aesthetic charm of Minecraft and have fused it with the isometric flavor of Diablo, making a family-friendly dungeon crawler in the process, equipped with an engaging loot progression system and enjoyable hack and slash gameplay, but lacks the c
Some critics, though, say the game can drag in the middle and be too much of a grind, despite its short length. This could be attributed to the fact that Minecraft Dungeons doesn’t seem to do much in terms of innovation. As well, there is no crafting or mining in the game, which is kinda weird.
