- 7.0It’s easy to see why One Deck Dungeon makes the decisions it does when it comes to its gameplay and replayability. The reliance on dice and a slow progression ramp are things that were put into a dungeon-crawler board game to make it challenging and satisfying over tons of playthroughs without being too complex. When put into a digital format though, these systems feel like poor solutions when considering how other, similarly-themed games handle the same problems. So, while One Deck Dungeon may feel like a reliable re-creation of the board game, it doesn’t feel quite as satisfying as other dungeon crawlers on the App Store.
- I particularly appreciate how it includes it on the screen with just as much prominence as my character’s other abilities; in the tabletop version, this stuff only exists on a separate notepad that’s easy to overlook. But unlike Sentinels of the Multiverse, I’d still rather play this on the tabletop. Handelabra seems so preoccupied with whether or not they could make a One Deck Dungeon videogame (they can!), but they didn’t stop to think if they should.
- It's rare that I favor the digital version of a game over its tabletop predecessor, but One Deck Dungeon by Handelabra Games has rendered my physical copy obsolete. Get it.
- 9.0One Deck Dungeon est un jeu original pensé initialement par Chris Cieslik. Cette adaptation numérique de Handelabra Studio lui est complètement fidèle. Certes, il est en anglais, ce qui en refroidira plus d'un, mais sachez qu'avec un peu de volonté, la barrière de la langue tombera rapidement et vous découvrirez alors un jeu vraiment excellent que vous aurez du mal à arrêter.
