Dungeon of Slyn

Dungeon Of Slyn is a roguelike role-playing game in which you'll get to explore a randomly generated dungeon with lots of dangers at every corner. Join a brave hero in a deadly quest As the story goes, the dreadful Lord Slyn has been pillaging and looting the hard working people of Rend for quite some time and no one has ever managed to put an end to his evil reign. As one of the few mighty heroes of the realm, you've been tasked to enter Lord Slyn's dungeon and kill him to stop all the suffering he's caused bringing peace to the entire land. As easy as it may sound, this will prove to be one of the most dangerous challenges you've ever encountered, and you'll have to use your wits to hope that you'll get out alive. Moreover, once you manage to reach the bottom level of the dungeon and slay Lord Slyn, you'll also have to fight your way and survive the road back to the surface. Multiple player classes with awesome abilities Before starting your quest you will have to choose one of the five possible hero classes: fighter, mage, paladin, priest, and ranger. Each of these classes come with unique strengths and weaknesses that will require a different approach when confronting the enemies from the dungeon. Furthermore, as most rogulike games, death is final so advance carefully and engage in battles only when you're sure you can come out victorious or you'll have to start the adventure from the very beginning. Besides monsters, the dungeon is also the place where you will find lots of weapons, equipment and consumables with different properties. While some can give you an instant boost to your skills, other can be cursed and besides their negative effects will bind to your hero needing you to remove their curse if you want to get rid of them. Spell books, potions, and magic wands can also be found during your adventure but, will require identification scrolls if you don't want to risk casting a curse on yourself or drinking a deadly potion. The game packs lots of content regarding weapons, equipment, and other consumables which combined with the random dungeon generator, makes it deliver a completely unique experience each time you play it.

Features:

  • Turn based combat
  • Random dungeons, every game is new
  • Enemies that can make use of the dungeon items they find
  • Potions and the ability to mix them
  • Powerful wands
  • Magic Scrolls
  • Online scoreboard

I still like this game but liked it a lot better when all 5 character classes were available. This was the main reason I bought the game. Also missing great equipment like green dragon armor, Excalibur, etc. that you would sometimes be able to find at beginning levels.

Liked this game even when it first came out and the dev has done a good job updating it. Has some nice polish now.

It will be five starts, when the game is finished and polished. Here are some shortcoming and missing features. Hopefully they will be addressed in future releases. - Current HP of a monster is not displayed. - Shops and money are not useful on deeper levels. - Fountains effects mostly adverse or trifling; - Speed is not cumulative (from boots, potions and spells); - Sudden difficulty jump between some levels (especially at Lord Slyn lair). - If a hero kills a shopkeeper, all shops should be closed for him (maybe until redemption money is paid). - A little bit better casting skills and choice of weapons for Rogue, Paladin and Fighter. - A training mode with several restore points. A great game anyway.

It's a fun little rogue game. The only thing preventing me from giving it another star or two is the controls. Tapping the precise square you want to step on is tedious on tablet sized screens. It would be more enjoyable to be able to tap the direction you want to go, and also to tap and hold for continuous movement like the original rogue games.

Monster slaying. Death by hunger because you put on cursed boots of levitation. Spells, potions, and scrolls. What more could I want or expect from a 2 dollar(or free with ads) roguelike dungeon crawler? The game is what I have been looking for on my surface pro. It takes me back to the days of Rogue on 5 1/2" floppy. Dungeon of Slyn is not a deep Immersive game like nethack is, but I'm not looking for that in a tablet game. If I wanted a dungeon crawler like nethack, I would play nethack. Your play experience is based on the class you choose. Past that it is rather limited in skill choices. This is a time killer game I play on the go, and its the best time killer I own. I gladly paid the 2 dollars for the full ad free game.

all of the classes feel out of your control, and some of them are less appealing than others. such as the paladin having the same weight limit as the wizard. also a lot of items after being identified have no description whatsoever. a lot is left unexplained in the help files and animations close to non-existent with no appearance change when equipping different items. all in all I don't see a lot of potential if this is the end product

This game works much like the classic NetHack game, but with simplified details and more tablet friendly. A great way to kill a few hours!
