Cook Dungeon

EDIT 12/16/2019: THEY LISTENED!!! The devs took notice of what we were saying in regards to some item sprites. While some sprites you can still tell were inspired from games like Pokemon, they've been redrawn. Unfortunately, it doesn't change my overall stance on the game. It pleases me to know that a dev listened to its biggest complaint. I hope that the dev continues to make improvements and change any other sprites that may have been taken from other properties. I still don't recommend this game, but if perhaps we do get a settings menu, tutorial, and something that tells us what each item does, I will consider changing my stance.

Game is meh, I wouldn't recommend it to friends.

MUSIC IS SUPER LOUD WHEN YOU OPEN THE GAME. I have to turn my speakers down so I can hear myself speak. The game doesn't teach you how to play, is full of bugs, there's no settings menu, and there are a TON of stolen graphics from POKEMON! YES! POKEMON! This was made for a quick buck clearly.

If I were the devs, I'd be ashamed. I like dungeon-crawlers and this has a unique mechanic but I have no idea what certain items do (need something to tell me what they do because I have no idea). HEALING IS IMPOSSIBLE.

DO NOT BUY THIS. THIS IS NOT A GOOD STEAM BARGAIN BIN BUY!

UPDATE: Dec 16th, 2019

So the developer went in as if nothing he did was wrong in response to the negative reviews such as mine and the comment thread. I give him credit for at least listening and not just deleting the thread about the theft of game art.

So he replaced the stolen art with new art. Even still, this game is too generic, and just feels way too basic, even for the low price of $1.99.

Want a great "Budget action RPG game"?

...This game is half the price at just 99 cents and is at least 10 times better:

****-**-** Original Unedited Review **-**-****

*** WARNING!! This Developer has KNOWINGLY Stole game art from several games including Nintendo!! ***

That's right, read no more! In case the developer thinks he can just "delete" the thread with the stolen art accusations with proof, I have it on video right here were I talk about it:

I call my series "M.I.S.S." for a reason. Those letters stand for something and it's not good, unless by chance you love the smell of maggots. This game reeks of corruption and a vile developer who thinks stealing other peoples artwork for his own simple dungeon game is "okay".

An Easy Score for me.. A BIG FAT GOOGLED ASSET ZERO! .. 0% !! Not Recommended!

Please do not support thieves. My purchase has been refunded because this developer doesn't deserve a single penny for this mash together of stolen art.

Honestly I love this game. Most people are blasting it for stolen are and what not but its cheap and the devs listen to the community. This game has amazing speed running potential with all of the glitches in it. I find myself coming back for more and I really enjoy the time playing this game. Some of the bugs can get annoying at times but seeing how the devs are actually working on making the game better I would say that they will not be around for long. I do feel like the game needs a tutorial or something to help you understand what you are doing but some people like having to figure that out. With 21 hours in this game I cant recommend this game enough and I feel like this game can really go somewhere in the future.

Final score: 8/10
