Release Date: September 6, 2016
An RPG from the dungeon crawler genre, developed by the independent studio Goblinz. Players are taken to fantasy world filled with dungeons to explore, treasures to find and monsters to defeat. At the same time, Dungeon Rusher offers a humorous approach to classic heroic fantasy tropes. We lead a party of adventurers, who must defeat a lord of darkness, dwelling in the deepest dungeon.
Dungeon Rushers on PC, Switch, etc., is a project of the independent Goblinz Studio. Players find themselves in a fantastic world filled to the brim with various dangers, dungeons and valuable items.
The plot of Dungeon Rushers doesn't differ much from the standards of the genre - we lead a team of fearless warriors, whose task is to defeat the dark ruler hidden in the deepest dungeon. During the game, we are joined by other members possessing unique abilities, which they use on the battlefield. For example, Trashkarog is a shaman who fights alongside fantastical beasts, Elian uses a bow, Thorgrim is unmatched in using a powerful hammer, and Pod is a bard who encourages his allies to fight. The story has been enriched with a solid dose of humor, and its subsequent plot points are presented with animated cut-scenes.
Gameplay in Dungeon Rushers is based on two things: exploration and combat. We explore the fantastical land on a 2D map, which not only presents players with a wider view of the explored labyrinths but also informs them about the dangers. When the team encounters an enemy, the action moves to the battlefield. The game uses a turn-based combat system, and the key to success is the proper deployment of the fighters and wise use of their abilities. In addition, the places we visit are full of various objects - the equipment found on the way can be distributed among heroes, thus increasing their combat potential. The game also offers an advanced crafting system, allowing you to create useful potions, or make and improve weapons. We also often find traders who can sell us their products.
Dungeon Rushers can be played alone or with friends. The core of the game is the single-player campaign, but it also offers a multiplayer mode. The creators have implemented a special arena where we can fight duels players selected with the matchmaking system.
The game has a dungeon creator system - we have access to a whole range of guards, traps, and pieces of equipment, which can be placed in the mazes created by us. Players can share their projects with the community, which, combined with an additional difficulty level unlocked after completing the story mode, significantly increases the replayability.
Dungeon Rushers offers 2D graphics. The game uses a colorful cartoon-looking style, and the transparent interface helps in gameplay a lot. The events on the screen are accompanied by an original soundtrack.

Gameplay in Dungeon Rushers is fun, easy to start and enjoyable to play. I really liked the campy dialogue and innocent approach to a diverse dungeon crawling genre. The crafting was designed well to accompany the materials acquired from grinding through the game. Unfortunately, with strong enemies appearing early and often, balancing is a serious issue, one that requires needless visits to small dungeons. Forcing players to replay dungeons so early on impeded my progress, and ultimately deterred me from playing further. It just seems to me that the developers missed the point with their own hero-parody style and missed an opportunity. If it was a short dungeon crawler, it wouldn’t really be in the same genre, but more enjoyment could be had if I could actually progress through the game.

If you’re in the mood for a simple dungeon crawler to kill a few minutes, Dungeon Rushers is nicely affordable. Anyone else, you might want to upgrade to Hero Quest. You’ve got a few friends right?
DualShockers: 6.5 / 10 by Kenneth Richardson
Despite all that it’s lacking, such as an interesting stories and characters, sophisticated or innovative combat mechanics, and compelling game-play outside of the dungeon, Dungeon Rushers can provide an entertaining experience for genre fans. It’s chock full of humor, has a colorful nostalgic visual style and has solid combat mechanics offering a decent challenge.
