Hack, Slash, Loot

This was always an almost buy on Steam, but the reviews always talked me out of it. This isn't bad on the iPad, but the buttons and textures are so tiny on the phone that it's almost unplayable. And when fully zoomed in the game area blocks the action texts. Don't buy this for your phone. Not a bad game though.

This is a nice little "beginner level" game for anyone not familiar with the world of roguelike RPGs: NETHACK, ADOM, DUNGEON CRAWL STONE SOUP, etc. HACK, SLASH, LOOT is not as robust as the titles I just mentioned but it's not meant to be; it's a "coffee- break roguelike" which features all the core elements of a roguelike game: procedural/randomized dungeons, permadeath, randomized loot and items, turn based mechanics, and insane difficulty level (you will die over and over. A LOT). If that's not your thing, then roguelikes are probably not for you. Otherwise, read on. The graphics are beautiful, with nifty pixel art (though I agree that it could be bigger). The music/ soundtrack might be the best I've ever heard in a roguelike. The UI is simple and friendly. The game is VERY random...even more so than most roguelikes. That may turn some people off. As I said earlier, be warned: the difficulty level is insane. And if you play the Wood Elf Archer (who is rather Nerf'd in my opinion), be prepared to die often as he misses his shot A LOT (50% chance he misses his target). You can also play as a Human wizard, and human female Saracen (as well as many unlockable characters). HACK, SLASH, LOOT is a fun, addictive game that has nice graphics, grade A soundtrack, intuitive UI, insane difficulty level, randomized dungeons and loot, and permanent death. In short, it's a simple roguelike that's an awesome time waster. If you enjoy this game, look further into the rabbit hole of roguelikes: BROGUE, TOME4, ANGBAND, ALIENSRL, INFRA ARCANA.

It's a ripoff. The game is too small & doesn't adjust to be playable. It shouldn't even be in the App Store.

very very nice rogue like/dungeon crawler i really like it

I been looking for a roguelike forever. I check in the App Store and found this and was very pleased. Make more updated and expansions please and classes. One thing I love about it is that it takes roguelike to the app. The no save thing I think is a very risky but wise choice that makes you want to play it . I have spent hours on this game! Thanks for a good game. Worth the 4.99
