6.0Poor monster balancing, lack of agency and too much of the waiting game drag Dungeon Village 2 down. Instead of being lifted into the Pantheon of best Kairosoft games, these issues drag it closer to the abyss.

It Takes A Village
To not miss any future mobile reviews subscribe to my [YouTube Channel](https://www.youtube.com/@Gaming_In_The_Moment) Full Review: [https://youtu.be/VX4MBiPyeWQ](https://youtu.be/VX4MBiPyeWQ) Personal Playtime: 6 hours Dungeon Village 2 is a great simulator game. It puts you in the position of a mayor who has to build the resources that villagers are going to need to go out there and quest on your behalf. These buildings range from inns for them to sleep in after battle to weapons shops so that they can buy gear. Along the way you will complete missions and fulfill certain requirements to increase your village rating and attract more villagers. This can be done via events, having certain buildings, or just adding to the scenery. The entire time you will be managing the cost of maintaining your facilities and the loot that you get from slaying monsters and clearing dungeons. The biggest downside is that the game’s speed modifier is locked until you complete the first world. This process can take about 5 hours. This is a huge QOL mechanic and for those that like the gameplay loop its addition only exponentially increases the enjoyment. It is easy to modify your village structure and adding and removing buildings works well compared to a lot of other games. I am happy to say that this is a great title to check dip your toes into the Karisoft developer as by all accounts this is one of their better titles. I really enjoyed this game and is a great game to just zone out and enjoy the progression to. I would recommend it as a relaxing sim title!
