Game Information

Available on:Nintendo SwitchMar 15, 2019

Developer: Kool2Play

Genres: Arcade, Adventure

Description:

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a classic fantasy world was attacked by pulp science fiction monsters from outer space? Now you can find out! Dungeons & Aliens is an action game with space mutants, brave dwarves, and awesome magic. It combines swipe and slash mechanics (proven to be effective on both aliens and fruit) with Joy-Con steering and simple tower defence (as easy as placing vegetation to stop the undead). All this makes for a fun and colourful adventure!

KEY FEATURES:

- Fresh mechanics: Swipe and slash meets tower defence
- Hand-drawn, old-school storybook graphics
- Upgradable spells for spectacular destruction
- A comedic mashup of sci-fi and fantasy clichés
- 60 challenging levels to beat and then master
- Controls adapted for Nintendo Switch

It squanders a potentially interesting Tolkien-ish Fantasy vs. B-Movie Alien plot, and barely gets its skinner-box-gameplay-loop out the door. I could only recommend this game if you’re looking for something to fidget your fingers with – but aside from that, nearly anything else on the Switch would be a better choice.

The chaotic real-time action of Dungeons & Aliens is fun for a short while but it slowly devolves into a frustrating mess.
