Delve Deeper

Good casual game with enough strategy to keep you occupied.

"Sometimes a bad is just a bad game."

To the people who liked the game: If there had been a bit more polish, more time to make a better UI, make more creative assets, if this game just had a little bit more... HEART then maybe it really could have been a fun, turn-based, hex-grid board game. I wanted to like this game. It felt reminiscent of maybe some other hex-based strategy board games you already know and love and have multiple copies of stacked next to those old D&D books? Hello, am I talking about you? Is that why you're looking at this game? Me too.

Here's my main complaint against Delve Deeper: apart from the bugs; compatibility issues; limited startegic/tactical game play; the biggest grievance I bring is this:

The time spent watching the movement of EVERY individual unit takes way too long to cycle through a given turn to feel like your player actions and choices even mattered; I spent most of my play time waiting for the computer player units to move.

TL;DR: THIS GAME DOES NOT RESPECT YOUR TIME.

This game felt like a version of Civ without any of the fun feelings of making strategic choices but also taking waaaaaaaaay too long to payout for the time invested. However I still maintain that there is not enough game here to even justify the $5 price point.

SO!

Do you want promises of Adventure? Combat?! Dwarven Hijinks and naturally the, Filthy, FILTHY LUCRE? Well then dust off those old board games and D&D books I mentioned earlier if you have them - they will entertain and enrich you more than this game ever, ever could.
