Game Review
I'm going to tell you right away about a cool new adventure game called Bit Dungeon. Oh my god, this game is a gem! As the title of the game suggests, you have been trapped in a dungeon for a thousand years asleep after the demons have captured you and your wife. You wake up trapped in a cell, grab your weapon and let the quest to find your wife begin in "bit" graphics! Not sure why but I just love the genre.

By slaying all the enemies in the cell will net you a key. You can then use it to open a locked gate and enter into the next cell. Each dungeon floor has a hidden boss behind the ominous red gate. Defeating it will let you proceed deeper, however it is wise to scout every cell before head-to-head the hidden boss. Occasionally, treasure in the form of equipment you can swap out your old weapons and armors for, or one of three permanent stat bonuses to choose from.

If you're low on health, always consider going back to cells you've cleared to kill some of the low level carrion fiends and the ghosts that appear and often leaving healing potions when slain. Why? Well, because death is permanent. It's merciless; Forcing you to replay the entire game from the beginning. I hate losing all my powerful gear forever, and this is how permanent death adds tension and excitement.

I like the one-death-kill system aka Deathstrike and magic system. It resembles the old-fashioned games, and that's not a bad thing in a game like this. The game is easy enough that I'm progressing at a perfect pace without much difficulty and gives a great feel of a retro dungeon crawler, awesome! What matters to me is the bloody footprints, it makes me happy. That is all, I'm out!
