Moving on, there are also two new reviews for the game. The Adrenaline Vault kicks things off with a 4/5:
After a long, hard day at work, it's cathartic to come home, load up a game such as Din's Curse and blast away at orcs and fire-tossing goblins for a few hours. Its combination of old-school RPG gameplay with a quick pace and combat that's focused on more than just the dungeons give it the uniqueness it needs to stand out in the crowded dungeon-crawler genre. At $24.99 it's a little pricier than most download-only indie games, but for that you get infinite replayability and a money-back guarantee, so it's hard to go wrong. It's a (just one more level) time-suck that'll have you playing much longer than you intended.
And then Bytten clocks in with a 94%:
On the other hand, Din's Curse scores highly by a very important standard of mine - I've become somewhat addicted to it. The autosaving of characters means I can spend a spare twenty minutes or a few hours on it (often, I intend one and end up with the other). New quests can keep appearing, so I always want to go back and deal with just one more. This has made this review remarkably difficult to write! Well done, Soldak - this gold star is well deserved!
