bit Dungeon II App Reviews

This game was fun for maybe 10 minutes. First of all, the controls are archaic and often uncooperative. Second, THERES NO SAVING. If you play for an hour and work on your character the way you like it, then theres a very good chance that after you try to save it the character will be reset. This game feels like a beta, not a finished app. Certainly not worth the money.

OMG GUYS THIS IS MY FAVORITE GAME YET! But heres a suggestion, I absolutely LOVE dungeon crawler, 8-bit games, but the touch-to-go feature is a bit sketchy, plus, I have a bunch of friends who love these kind of games, but hate the touch-to-go feature, so, if you made a stick and button control scheme, and keep the touch-to-go scheme optional and be able to change it in the options menu, it would make a HUGE difference for the better, trust me you will get soooooo many more buyers if you add it, oh and the only reason its getting 4 stars is cause of the random level changing while moving through areas, and it would make it even better if you randomized the areas, but this is just my opinion, still love the game guys thanks:)

This game is amazing until you exit the app for 5 seconds and then come back to see your back at the start. Ill change my review to 5 when this is fixed

Best game on the AppStore. Whatever saving issue there was before is fixed. Please re-rate for 5 stars if that was your complaint because I would really like these guys to get the funding for a bit dungeon 3!!!!

Could be one of the greats!!! Things to fix 1. Save file 2. Slow down the speed character moves to fast!!

Just picked it up. Really fun to play. tap where u want to move. double tap guy for power. tap enemy to attack. lots of random loot drops. maaad fun. good music. get blazed n play it!! edit: update FIXES save!! The developer clearly understands he has a masterpiece of a game why let little bugs left unfixed. totaaaallly worth the money folks.

This game is a love letter to Diablo and Dark Souls. A lot of fun leveling up and collecting sweet equipment while trying not to die because youll lose said levels and equipment. Anyway, play the game its a lot of fun. And a Big Thank You to the dev for quickly fixing the save bug even with the apple freeze out.

Edit: Save issue fixed Pros: The game is very fun. Its classic roguelike, but you get an extra life and can keep retrieving it if you make it back to the same spot, however if you die on the way its game over. Lots of weapons/loot. Combat is fast and fun, even if a little simple. The overworld is a nice touch and the dungeons look very zelda-esque. Each dungeon has different enemy types; theyre all pretty similar, but different sprites makes it feel like a different experience for each one. Coins carry over after gameover so theres some continuity. Cons: Saving can be finicky. Sometimes it saves after every screen, other times only at campfires, and other times not at all. That is a serious issue that needs to be updated. Movement isnt as smooth as it should be. Im praying for a virtual dpad and two buttons, but I doubt that will happen. I wish there was a map that would update as you play, because often I get lost. I dont like the way ranged weapons work and they seem inferior in every way. You have to press and hold the screen which not only makes you move in that direction briefly, but also takes a second. This means if you walk into a close quarters area you are essentially stun-locked to death almost every time. I also think that bringing up the inventory menu should pause the game and have a settings menu accessible from within the game, not just the title screen. I dont understand the leveling system. You can level up to 10, but then the next time you enter a new screen it reverts back to 9. Im not sure if this is intentional or not but it doesnt make sense to me because you can reach level 10 pretty easily. Overall very fun game, maybe wait until first update to purchase. Fixing the save issue and adding a virtual d-pad/buttons would make this a 5/5 for me.

So glad that the save feature was fixed!

Thank you! As promised five stars. I appreciate the fast fixes. I will let you know if the ice maze coordinates work now. Update: the ice maze coordinates still dont work south east north east. Thanks. To one of the reviewers the leveling from 9 to 10 issue has been fixed with the update.

Edit: Now saves but not every time Ive lost everything twice now since the update because of lost saves. One of those times I came back mid dungeon completely naked and penniless. Nota fun time. I love this game but the bugs are killing it for me. Hang in there itll be worth it soon, 4 stars because of the potential will be 5 soon. It will not save Ive tried everything I can think of (and read) but no such luck. This will be a 5 when all the bugs are worked out! I loved the original and if you like Zelda then this is the game for you. I will update my review after updates.

After playing for a hour or so of constant death I found myself quite successful and after beating a couple bosses I desired to rest off the game for about a few hours. I then come back to find my character reset but it left me off at a campfire and now I cant progress because the enemys are far to strong for me to kill with no weapon. So all I can say is please, please fix this so I can continue playing this great game :(

I bought the game a week or two after launch but didnt get around to playing it until tonight. Once I got the hang of the controls (mostly walking) I was in love. This dungeon style crawler is much different than all the clones out there but the influence is clear and well delivered. Enemies are so ugly and creepy I couldnt wait to run up and slice them up. Once I started getting more and more items I hoped I wouldnt die. Since death means you must began again from the beginning. But having everything changed or randomly generated makes reply very high. I really need to sink my teeth into this one. Expect another review more in depth after the next update.

I dont usually write reviews but for this 3 dollar game I felt compelled. I am a big fan of the first bit dungeon but this game just does not hold up. The controls are terrible and theres no way to determine wat you are doing! Im either slowly walking or practically teleporting across the screen. Item interaction is similar to the first game but very sloppy in this game (you need to double tap to switch your current item for one that just dropped) Half the time u run around the item ten times b4 it registers. Level progression is terrible considering Im lvl 8 and cant get through the first dungeon. Ive made it to the end boss a few times, usually with half health only to be stepped on. Even the normal monsters can 2 shot you. With no abilities and no defense moves, its just click your enemy to attack, which feels very lackluster. Theres no map so its just a free for all run around with no indication of where you should start or progress to from there. Also wen you die you only have one "life". You retain all your gear and you drop the spare "life" where you died, but it starts you at the beginning of the game! Ive spent more time running back to where I died then enjoying progression. Great artwork and I do enjoy the gameplay but this game is way out of balance. Dpad would help a lot for control of your toon and a map would be clutch. Overall its poop for 3 dollars. Nothing compared to the first one.

i love the dungeon hack and zelda feel, definitely something to check out for real! few things i would love to add is…. *map. world map and dungeon would be great. *storage mode. you can store up to maybe 20 items once you beat a certain place and cost you .99 *save mode, would be great. *some of the item compare could be done a little better. some of the stats go off the screen. *the color of the damage is confusing. i don’t know when i get hit during combat and one color (RED probably) would be good to show who is getting hit and who is doing the damage. *a simple “how to” on the abilities would be nice in the settings or help section. not asking for a tutorial. overall, with a few refining finishes and little shine would make this game amazing. still love it. and kinda addicting!!

More addicting than the first one, has the very unique feeing of a little game of epic proportions! Think of Dark Souls resized to a pick up and play smartphone game. There are still some things to implement to smooth out gameplay like: a better transition for campfires (and more things to do there), an improved menu/settings, maps (at least for the overworld) a stash/vault to put items for later use, an arena to try items or to win prizes, some kind of character permanent save (after hours of grinding starting from scratch its not fun). Then... more and more content of course! It could grow to an enormous experience with more biomes added.

*Thanks for fixing the save issue* This game is a lot of fun to play: easy touch screen controls, interesting loot drops and a really good sense of progression through leveling up. I also like the retro 8-bit graphics. Overall its like a faster-paced version of the original NES Zelda, but streamlined for fast play sessions on the phone and with an added loot collecting + permadeath twist. Only fails in the areas of polish, being clear on whats happening, and occasional deaths that feel unfair. But in the end, Ive really enjoyed playing it, and thats what matters most.

I was enjoying the game very much I even beat it first go around and was pretty strong until i loaded it up to see suddenly lvl 1 and nothing again the auto save is broken and with that being said unless its fixed this game is broken dont buy it unless u like wasting time

Everything when you die.

There is basically nothing good to say about this game if you liked the first one. EVERYTHING is worse. I put up with it for 10 minutes until I uninstalled. Good that it was free as it sucked so hard.
