Hello, I am Kim Yong-hyun from the first generation of Stove Crew.

A game where you explore dungeons with pretty older sisters

A game that challenges Koreans

Today I bring you a review of Flower Dungeon.

If you would like to see it in a shorts environment, please click the link above.

By watching the video, you can enjoy the Flower Dungeon review in just 1 minute (1 minute 52 seconds).

I tried a few new things with the video, so it ended up being a bit long.

If you want to read a review a little more in-depth than the video, please scroll down.

1. Flower Dungeon, what kind of game is it?

[Flower Dungeon] is a rogue-lite RPG where you explore dungeons with your favorite character among the pretty older sisters.

The premise is roughly as follows: 'I gathered mercenaries to protect my territory from dungeons, and they're all pretty.'

Players explore the dungeon to farm stats and items.

You must use your enhanced power to defeat the enemies lurking in the dungeon.

For this?

Power that increases attack power and HP

Agility that increases attack speed and defense

Skill damage and maximum magic power intelligence

Appropriately utilize each character's strengths and develop a growth route that matches them... %^%#^

Actually, you don't need all of them.

Do you see the character selection screen with all the pretty older sisters gathered together?

Choose the character your heart desires and enter the dungeon.

You can play the game worrying about the tech tree later.

Go through dungeons with your favorite character, become stronger, and defeat enemies.

If you die? Like a rogue-lite, you get unlock points and try again.

Just knowing this is enough to enjoy the game.

2. Is this game fun?

"Illustrations that capture both quantity and quality"

In this game, each and every minor character has their own unique illustration.

Questions like "How did you draw all this?" are not important.

It's important that there are a lot of illustrations featuring pretty older sisters.

The illustrations are so rich that just looking at them makes the game more fun.

Playable characters also have separate illustrations for each expression and status.

All characters that appear in various places, such as colleagues, enemies, and event NPCs, have illustrations.

I think this is the best advantage of this kind of 'heart-pounding game'.

"Various random events"

Usually, in games like this, you will see all the random events after just a few rounds.

So the more you play, the less randomness there is in the rogue-lite.

Why? Because if you memorize all the results, you can predict them.

But [Flower Dungeon] has really... diverse random events.

There are a ton of maps, and each map has its own unique event.

So, the situation of 'seeing an event from a lower floor again from a higher floor' does not occur.

You could say that the 'time to anticipate an event' is longer than in other rogue-lites.

Even if you play the game quite a bit, there will be a lot of events you don't know about.

"A ton of farming elements and tech tree types"

There are also many farming elements, so it's fun to try out different tech trees.

There are so many factors that affect battles, from the equipment shown in the image to faith, enchantments, stats, and companions.

Most tech trees show very high destructive power once completed.

You can aim to clear the level by deciding on the concept and course of action according to your taste.

Isn't the main fun of these rogue-lite games the concept?

There are many different concepts possible, such as the critical hit tree and the One Punch Man tree, as well as various tech trees.

"The fun of controlling the speed"

You may be wondering what this means, but when you turn on triple speed, the game becomes truly astral.

This is why I wrote at the top that this is a game that challenges Koreans.

When exploring the map, you may be going too fast to take the side path,

There are also instances where traps are recklessly stepped on.

The same goes for combat.

It is much more dangerous because it becomes difficult to deal with a situation where blood is quickly shed.

Then what is good?

It's fast.

You can enjoy the thrill of playing games at incredible speed.

You'll understand if you just turn on Flower Dungeon and play it at 3x speed.

If you're Korean, you can't stand this.

3. Are there any regrets?

The downsides are as clear as the advantages.

Perhaps because it was early in its release, the shortcomings were more apparent.

"The game structure feels repetitive"

If you play the game for a long time, it feels like you're just repeating 'exploration - combat'.

Of course, this is the fate of rogue-lite games.

However, [Flower Dungeon] is a bit more extreme.

There are too many maps, so the enemies slowly get stronger,

There is no 'change' felt in combat due to other regrets that will be described later.

If you keep repeating farming, you will get tired.

So as the play time piled up, I felt like I was just repeating two actions.

"The battle doesn't require any special strategy"

There is nothing special about the enemy's pattern.

Just keep attacking, a big attack will come and it's over.

So there's not really anything for the player to deal with.

In other words, there is no combat beyond 'giving and receiving' attacks.

What the player does is 'hit hard' and 'hit harder'.

What the enemy does isn't much different from what the player does.

So, I often felt that the combat was monotonous during gameplay.

"It is difficult to feel the results of farming"

This is a regret that is directly related to what was written above.

Because the battles are simple, everything in this game is about 'farming for battles'.

The results of that farming are not very apparent in combat.

It's difficult to feel anything more than just increased damage and defense.

I don't see any changes in play style or effects.

Roguelite is a genre where the dopamine rush you get when you complete the tech tree is really important, so it was disappointing that there was less of that.

"It's a pretty long game"

As I mentioned above, there are really, really many maps.

There were so many people playing that it was tiring.

Especially since farming mostly ends in the middle stages?

This game is difficult to complete by farming, but once you complete it, you can keep pushing.

But it was a bit difficult because the map was just pushed back without any additional farming.

I wish they had laid out the map so that it could be played in two sections instead.

It was so long that it wasn't easy to recognize it as 'one game'.

4. Are there any points that people may or may not like?

Rather than having clear advantages or disadvantages,

I have collected the parts that people may or may not like.

"Not an easy level of difficulty"

This game is not an easy game.

If you farm all the tech trees you are aiming for, the difficulty level drops drastically.

It's hell until all the farming is done.

Maybe my research is lacking,

That might be because I never use the 'easy' difficulty setting.

At least the set of characters I played (Rivo, Sylvie, and Fenia) weren't easy.

As you progress to the latter half of the game, the boss' HP and attack power become extremely strong, so you won't be able to survive without completing the tech tree.

Of course, it was also a challenge.

There is definitely a certain fun to be had by farming and clearing the tech tree.

Still, I thought it was a point that people would either like or dislike depending on their gaming style.

"High luck factor"

This is the true flavor of the roguelike/roguelite genre.

[Flower Dungeon] also captured this flavor really well.

How does farming depend on luck?

If you let your guard down and farm with an intelligence character, you will be forced to change your character to a strength mage.

Then, you can defeat the monster with your own staff.

The dopamine rush from collecting Exodia to clear the game is certain.

However, I would like to say that the path is quite difficult due to the high luck factor.

5. Overall Review

As I said, it's a game with clear shortcomings.

But? Thanks to the developer's constant updates, any shortcomings are being fixed in real time.

I don't know when the developer will fix the regrettable points I mentioned.

Also, all else aside, it's definitely a game that's above average as a roguelite.

This is a case where it is well-made, but the shortcomings stand out like a blemish on the jade.

The price isn't that expensive, so it's a good way to kill time.

Above all, the various illustrations you see while playing the game are really pretty.

[Flower Dungeon], isn't it a 'game that touches the heart'?

Since I am reviewing it as a crew, I looked into it in detail.

In my mind, the illustrations alone more than covered up all the shortcomings.

The gameplay is good, and can my older sisters watch it without any worries?

There is absolutely no reason not to do it.

A game that lets you enjoy exploring dungeons with your sisters.

A game with all the little fun of a rogue-lite
