Обсуждения игроков
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийA 2D pixel-art action roguelite dungeon crawler by Lamina Studios (Dec 2016) that mixes Nuclear Throne-style shooting/melee, Risk of Rain-style item stacking and snowballing power, with 10 classes and local co-op.
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDungeon Souls is received as a decent but derivative budget roguelite. Steam players rate it Mostly Positive (about 74% of ~2,200 reviews by the local data; the store page shows 77% of 1,310), and Metacritic sits at a Mixed 67 from 8 critic reviews with a 6.0 user score. Critics called it a fun, casual tribute to older dungeon crawlers that borrows heavily from its inspirations and is quickly forgotten. Long-time players say it gets addictive once the between-run upgrades start compounding. It is a finished 2016 release (not early access); the Steam forum has threads asking whether the game is dead, and recent negative reviews cite unresolved controller and crash problems on modern systems. Web searches were unavailable for this run (search budget exhausted), so community color is drawn from Steam reviews, Steam forum titles, and the Destructoid and Metacritic pages.
Что хвалят игроки
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTen distinct hero classes with different abilities (e.g. Barbarian with health and area attacks, Cleric with bouncing projectiles and a shield) that change how a run plays
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийItems and passives (50+) provide a snowballing, overpowered-build feeling in the Risk of Rain mould; one 40-hour reviewer says runs start short but become an avalanche once meta upgrades kick in
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAddictive, replayable loop with lots of RNG and unlocks; one reviewer calls it among the most addictive dungeon crawlers they have played in a while
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBite-sized, turn-your-brain-off action that suits short sessions; Hardcore Gamer said practice and learning the characters eventually pays off
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийPleasant pixel-art presentation and simple fitting audio, plus local split-screen co-op
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийNostalgic old-school dungeon crawler feel; one reviewer feels it set a standard later games improved on
Что критикуют игроки
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийHeavily derivative of Nuclear Throne, Risk of Rain and Spelunky without its own identity (Destructoid, LEVEL, High-Def Digest: forgettable)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийBland, repetitive procedurally generated environments with poor visibility; traps blend into the dark
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийMelee characters are poorly balanced in a bullet-heavy game with no dodge mechanic; enemies feel like bullet sponges
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийUnfair hazards: floor traps in narrow corridors, ritual-marker rooms, and enemies that spawn directly on the player
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийConfusing interface and item placement (chests look like shop items, accidental warps to secret levels)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTechnical issues: stated Xbox controller support reportedly does not register input (negative reviewers say unresolved since at least 2018), mouse is not captured on multi-monitor setups, black screen and crash reports on newer Windows
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLow-sophistication story and visuals; the plot is described as merely present
Отличительные особенности
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCross-breed of Nuclear Throne action, Risk of Rain item scaling and Overture-style dungeon crawling, according to its own store description
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийActivating marks/altars on a level to open the escape portal rather than simply reaching an exit
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCrafting system with recipes that players must discover, plus permanent meta upgrades between runs
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTen hero classes with unlockable characters such as the Brawler and Redeemer
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийShared/split-screen local co-op and Remote Play Together support in a pixel-art roguelite at a low price
Спорные моменты
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSimplicity: some enjoy mindless, easy-to-pick-up action; others find it monotonous and shallow
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDifficulty and balance: Hardcore Gamer says mastery pays off, while Destructoid found melee classes badly outmatched by bullets
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDerivativeness: some see a loving tribute to the genre's greats, others an unoriginal copy
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийClass variety: praised by critics and many players, but one negative reviewer says characters offer little gameplay variety
Повторы и неудобства
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийEarly runs feel short with little progress until meta upgrades accumulate; one reviewer calls the meta progression 'dark' and monotonous
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийSlow walking speed makes fleeing traps and enemies hard
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийRandom monster spawns punish stopping to level up, so the pace forces constant movement
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCrafting reportedly disables gameplay while it is active (one negative review)
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLosing a run's progress by exiting to the main menu (Steam forum PSA) and unclear save behaviour
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLimited variety between characters according to a negative reviewer, with monotonous gameplay over time
Ожидаемые улучшения
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийFix controller detection and make the advertised Xbox controller support actually work
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийCapture the mouse cursor and fix window/taskbar handling for multi-monitor play
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийAdd a dodge or mobility option and rebalance melee classes against projectile-heavy enemies
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийMake traps, chests and shop items readable against dark backgrounds; clarify interface and warp triggers
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийStabilise the game on modern Windows 11 to stop crashes and black screens
- Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийClearer explanation of how to unlock characters (Brawler, Redeemer) and find crafting recipes such as Nimby's Grace
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийLaunched Dec 2, 2016 to mixed-positive reviews (Metacritic 67, 8 critics ranging 60 to 80). The Steam page lists a Digital World Game Expo Best Game award. Steam forum has a v1.1 bugs thread, a 'Dungeon Souls 2?' thread and an 'Is the game dead?' thread, suggesting development has stopped. Recent (2025-2026) Steam reviews are still mostly positive from nostalgic players, but negative ones report crashes on Windows 11, non-working controller support and mouse capture issues. Available on Windows, Mac and Linux. OpenCritic has no matching entry that could be confirmed (the page fetched belonged to a different game), so opencritic is null.

Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийTier list Part 1 (2023)
Оригинальный текст · АнглийскийDungeon Souls is a basic top-down dungeon crawler that got a little recognition at one point. He says nothing about it is unique, but it is chaotic and unbalanced, and you quickly become overpowered if you survive. He has a soft spot for it, played it multiplayer with a friend, and calls it a guilty pleasure rather than a great game. He places it in low B because it is fun.
