iPhone Game Review: Sketch Dungeon ($0.99)
1 Comment// Posted in Reviews, Video Games, iPhone by Sean on 09.20.09.
For some reason I think indy games on the iPhone whose graphics are made to look like hand drawings. The style just intrigues me for some reason. So because I this I thought I would check out Sketch Dungeon. It is a single-player dungeon crawler similar to the old-school game Gauntlet, but with the appearance of a hand-drawn, pen and paper game. It sort of brings the pen and paper feel of the good ol’ days to the game.
You tilt to move your character, you tap or hold down in a direction around your character to shoot, you collect keys, and you shoot bad looking things. That’s it. And with the gameplay being all there really is to this game, it doesn’t even work. When you are trying to touch the screen to shoot in a certain direction, your finger is blocking everything you are trying to shoot; so you can’t see what you are shooting/running away from. The art style is really all there is to really like about this game. Somehow, I would even say there is less going on graphically in this then there is in Gauntlet; so there’s nothing even to look at while you’re walking around doing the same thing over and over again. I will say, the game does trying to have funny/intriguing writing on the ground; but it’s far too and between, and most of the time it’s not even that funny.
Conclusion
I wouldn’t recommend buying this game, but there is a lite version; so if you dig the art style and you have a few minute, then it may be worth you checking it out. The art style is unique, but the gameplay is bland and there is nothing to keep you coming back.
