Din's Curse: Demon War Review

It is really not easy to review a game that is as dynamic as Din's Curse because everyone will have an entirely different experience. What can be said though is that the game is highly replayable and simply sucks the hours out of the days while you play it. Every time I had either saved of left a town to perish (it's going to happen) I eagerly anticipated the surprises awaiting me in the next town and multi-layered dungeon. As each town you enter is randomly generated you can expect completely different townspeople, enemies, environments and world events. This is the main draw for Din's Curse and the Demon War expansion does a brilliant job of adding even more to the mix. Like I said the most noticeable difference with the expansion is that the towns and the inhabitants feel more alive and will effect how you play a lot more. It does make quite a difference with the expansion so I would certainly recommend picking it up if you are interested in the game, and it is a definite must-buy if you are already playing the core game.
Ultimately the best thing to do is to try out the demo which also comes with the Demon War expansion built into it now. Considering this is the creation of only one man, I can guarantee that you will be surprised at how many different things can happen. I do wonder if the bigger titles can keep up, or will at least take a leaf out of Soldak's book.
