Accessibility Comments

The developer has shown a lot of willingness and commitment to making this game accessible. The most recent updates have all contained fixes for VoiceOver users, and he has expressed a desire to know of any outstanding accessibility issues. He has taken a game that used to be clunky and difficult to play, and turned it into one of the coolest and most accessible dungeon crawlers on the app store.
At this time, the only major issue involves NPC dialog. When a piece of dialog pops up, it is necessary to double tap twice to move on to the next piece. This is not a showstopper, but it may be useful to be aware of ahead of time.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labeling

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some minor accessibility issues with this app, but they are easy to deal with.

Other Comments

This is a great game. If you're looking for a dungeon crawler, one with lots of monsters, loot, level ups, and fun sounds, give this one a try. There is a lite version, but it is supported by ads that may be difficult to close for a VoiceOver user. Due to the developer's level of commitment to accessibility, I would strongly recommend purchasing the full version if at all possible.

actually when I swipe up I hear nothing. when encountering 3 enemies. *rib it.* I had to. lol! I'll take a look and try again.

By KE7ZUM on Saturday, October 23, 2021 - 20:21

another bug. When you cannot take anymore items the game appears to freeze and you have to relaunch the app to see the proceed button. Can anyone else confirm?

Well, it depends on which enemy you start from. If swiping up doesn't work, try swiping down.

hi. I would like to apologise for going completely nuts over this bug that's not a bug. While playing the game yesterday, I realised that this was actually a feature and thank you for the person who also told me this on the forom. Sorry I didn't listen.

So I absolutely love this game. However, is there a way to heal the minions that fight with you that you catch?

Still don’t really understand the forging.

Is there anything specific you need to forge with anything else in particular.

By Yvonnezed on Saturday, October 23, 2021 - 20:21

I think you can go to the fisherman at the port to heal minions. I only have a dragon though, which heals itself, so I'm not entirely sure.

By Yvonnezed on Saturday, October 23, 2021 - 20:21

As far as I know, there isn't any limit as to what you can forge with what. Once you select edit on what you upgrade, all your weapons armour and orbs should get listed with the forge button after them.

I am loving this game so far, and have figured most things out by trial and error plus a few perusals of former comments to get questions that had already been asked. I made it up to 50, defeated the two headed dragon and...

...now I'm back at floor 1. Was I meant to create a new character and start from scratch with harder monsters? Cuz my high level spell slinging badass fighting Goo monsters feels silly.

you don't have to create a new character but you do start from scratch with harder monsters. you can always release your monsters if you don't want them. personally I don't use minions because I can never find where to buy meat to feed them with.

By Christel john on Tuesday, November 23, 2021 - 20:21

First go to port and then go to shore you will find the guy that sells meat

By Zoe Victoria on Tuesday, November 23, 2021 - 20:21

Hey, how do other people have multiple characters linked to their account? It says the game will be erased if you start a new one, so how exactly does that work?

By Missy Hoppe on Wednesday, March 23, 2022 - 20:21

I love this game! I have an elf warrior who is level 65, and so far, I have never captured a single minion. I go to the shore and set up fishing gear, but nothing ever happens apart from being stuck on that screen to the point where I have to force quit the app. I've tried searching google and youtube for answers, but there is nothing that explains how I'm supposed to catch my first minion. I'm almost wondering if my game is corrupt or something, but also, I'm highly disappointed that none of the videos that have been made about this game make it clear how to get started with minions; the only one I found with a title of how to catch minions pretty much assumed that the viewer already had them and discussed resurrecting them; not helpful. Anyway, if someone could please tell me what I'm doing wrong, or if you think I may need to restart my game, please let me know.
Thanks!

By Use Small Words on Wednesday, March 23, 2022 - 20:21

when you're in the dungeon, go into your inventory and click use on the fishing gear before you fight something. Occasionally a monster will take interest in the fishing pole and you might catch it.

Personally I don't use a fishing pole as I have trouble trying to find meat to feed the minions that I catch.

By MikeFont on Wednesday, March 23, 2022 - 20:21

Hi all, I’ve purchased several healing herbs and potions, along with my gear, and my inventory is severely limited! Might there be a way to increase the number of items I can carry?
Also at what level do I get fishing gear? Lastly, I have a green stone, but no way to use it. Isn't it supposed to teleport me to floor ten?
Thanks for all the help!

Hi! Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I'm having a strange issue with this game. I love the game, and have made itto level 121. The problem is that according to the guild in the pub, I'm still only level 79. I had to uninstall the app on Monday, and when I redownloaded and re-installed it, I loaded from iCloud. All seems fine on my end, but no matter what I do, my info doesn't update at the pub. Any ideas on how to fix this would be extremely appreciated. If it matters, I have the paid version of the game running on iOS 15.4 and have made it to level two of the dungeon.
