Din's Curse Review

Din's Curse is the kind of game whose mileage will vary. With heaps of randomization, a dynamic world and tons of class combinations, you'll get out of it what you put into it. Its budget visuals don't impress but Soldak did an admirable job of working within their limitations. Monsters, at least, are interesting to look at, as Soldak relied more on angles and form than intricate details. Basically, it will run on just about anything. Combined with the indie price, there's almost no barrier to entry here. Furthermore, with all kinds of customization and difficulty options, it can be as casual or hardcore as you want it to be. If you're the type of RPGer who loves experimenting with different classes and styles of play, especially in groups, then there's a lot of replay value to Din's Curse. If not, then its wash, rinse, repeat routine will grow tiresome sooner than later.
