I played Dungeon Maker and it was fun but I hit a wall fairly early and suddenly it wasn't fun. Are there any other games like that where you run through things until you die and then you unlock stuff and run through it again, but that doesn't take hours for a single unlock that might not even help you? I checked the play store and most of them are dungeon crawler type things where you have to tap everywhere you wanna go and that just ain't in my interest right now.

precision posted:Do the Konami Picross puzzles top out at 3 star difficulty? I'm at 23% and been getting nothing but 3* for a while I have been getting 4 star puzzles around 30%. And 5 star Boss puzzles too so I assume the regular and mini-boss will hit 5 star eventually. Even at 5 star they are not that hard really.

that slime platform game is really good, except for the level design/progression. it seemed like the levels are random in terms of how hard they are, how clever they are, which mechanics they use, and so on. maybe a better mode opens up eventually, but i got tired of it already

I know this isn't what your asking, but I had the same thing happen in dungeon maker. The trick is to go up in difficulty levels every time you hit 100 days. That'll be a pretty steady stream of money to buy new cards. Prioritize cards that can always be used (like staying with more monsters) and new bosses. Also only worry about the cheapest card pack until you get all the good stuff from it. By the time you hit hard 7 or 8 you'll be about to jump down to like hard 3 and clean house on the rest of the achievements and get more money. There are definitely choke points, but they happened to me much later after I discovered adjusting the difficulty.

The recent updates have added a bunch of new stuff, but it's mostly for longer late game runs. It really clutters up the new player experience. You should mostly ignore books and prisoners until you're comfortable with the basics. I think the developer needs to add some gating for the extra mechanics.

As for progression it seemed mostly to me like things generally got harder, but there were a few difficulty spikes that caused me to switch modes for a little while before going back to a previous mode. I'm done with Short now and getting close to finishing Middle. Long I've only done like a quarter of because they really are quite long. The stage where you have to time your jumps up a vertical shaft because spikes pop out of both sides at the same time is basically the worst. Even though it's for an optional star I haven't been able to move on from a stage until I get 100%. That one probably took me the longest of any stage to beat because the timing is just so precise.

I got to Hard 10 and then I tried running through to a late run on like Hard 4 and lost after 160 days. It gave me like 10 coins which gave me the option between like 2 3* monsters or a reduced chance to get 1* items. Something broke in my brain that I spent like 45 minutes doing that and I gave up forever. And Guild of Dungeoneering installed on my phone so hopefully it will run.

I've been making get things checked off that a priority and I'm only at hard 5 or 6 and got a helluva lot farther than 160 on them. Who is your darklord? I just started firelady and she is unfun to play imo

Fire lady is just the worst and incredibly boring and I have her awakened form so I have to get her to 15 instead of 10 D:

She's pretty great, but again, super late game. You either need to bring some rooms to detonate burn damage, or do something like stack a Bigger Fight or Triple Gigantify with accelerated focused fusion monsters. None of them are bad, but you need wildly differing strategies. I keep defending it, but goddamn the new user experience is lovely.

I think the biggest problem with Dungeon Maker for new players is that the starting ability for the dark lords can be a poor indicator of how to actually play them. One of my favorite lords is Rebecca, and I actually played her last because I thought giving enemies corpse explosion was dumb and didn't realize that wasn't how you play her at all. The game does a really lousy job of presenting info. I didn't even realize the game wanted you to keep your monsters and rooms over games because I didn't get those unlocks for awhile. That's something fundamental to the game and you have to have a bit of luck in the beginning to get it.

Well 1 star tend to be 5x5 while 2 star tend to be 10x10. The 3 and 4 star ones are both 15x15 but from my experience the 4 star ones have mostly been harder than the 3 star ones

Can't seem to "get into" Almost a Hero despite it being recommended a lot. It just seems kind of slow. I've made it to like level 180 or so but I'm not really the kind of person that likes to make their own builds in these kinds of games. Most of the "guides" seem to conveniently be missing actual builds or just kind of assume you know what they mean when they tell you 3 heroes (out of 5) and tell you one skill to use. Almost none of them even mention that hero order actually matters despite this being apparently a pretty important thing to note. I know there are a lot of cool mechanics that end up being unlocked quite late, should I stick with it?

I've made it to like level 180 or so but I'm not really the kind of person that likes to make their own builds in these kinds of games. I have played a bunch of Almost a Hero and found that quick runs seem to work best until you have something to push for. The game for sure requires active attention to make reasonable progress Due to the way things scale most of the time you only need to 1 or 2 skills mentioned in the builds and everything ends up not mattering as much after those. The more end game stuff is a little different but if you aren't feeling it in the early game, it doesn't change enough to be worth forcing yourself to push for it

I didn't know there were "builds" for almost a hero. I use the heroes that I have that are the highest rank and as far as their skills if you are going to around lvl 400 or so you can get pretty much everything maxed. I most let it spend the skill points randomly as it doesn't matter all that much. You need to prestige to get the currency anyways so I just run until I stall then prestige and next run I make it farther.

Like only leveling Boomer and using his ult every 5 seconds. Stops it from being idle and isn't efficient farming but lets you push to a breakpoint.

i started losing interest in Gumballs and Dungeons once i felt like the only way to get deeper into dungeons was to abuse game mechanics in fiddly and time-consuming ways. one was to keep using the "go back X number of floors" spell to farm loot, the other was to switch between different armor sets all the time in order to min-max the bonuses you get from them. doing stuff like that helped me get quite a bit further, like many tens of floors further, but i was still nowhere near ever clearing a lot of the higher-level challenges and achievements. it seemed like the only way I'd ever be able to do those is to make each dungeon run even longer, even though it felt like the time per run (and even the "time per floor") had already ballooned to an interminable length this wouldn't be the worst thing if the game let you keep more than one run going at a time. then i could save a super long min-max wankfest while still being able to do short dungeons and grind materials elsewhere until I'm ready to go back into the long run Lutha Mahtin fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Oct 19, 2018 |
