Tried Deck Box Dungeon, made it through several rooms and encounters before I had to stop so I didn’t get to the boss but first impression is positive.
It is paired with an app, as you go through the dungeon you hit a button that reveals the next tile/room. Once in the room it tells you what is spawning, or extra objectives. It’s my first experience playing a board game with an app so I wasn’t sure if I’d like it, turns out I do. It was great I couldn’t see what was coming, didn’t know the story, it’s a pretty simplistic game so i wasn’t blown away or anything, but I could see a lot of potential with it.
It says 1-4 players but you need a second copy to play with 3 or 4. I could not really see playing this with 3-4 people, it’s just not engaging enough. The fighting, character placement, etc isn’t difficult. Timing abilities right is about the only meaningful choice that I saw but I didn’t get all the way to the end so maybe there’s a little more challenge later. I’ll probably try it with my dad at some point, he likes playing quick little games like this.
Overall id say it’s definitely a great little solo game, I’ll definitely take it with me when I travel for work. The components, art, and mechanics are all solid and it all fits in a small deck box.
Good video for it if anyone is interested
