There used to be RPGs that still touch every gamer’s heart today. Games like Final Fantasy used to give me sleepless nights, so I’m still an absolute believer in the genre. There are numerous 8-bit RPGs on smartphones these days, but few stand out from the crowd. Dungeon Princess: Offline RPG is different though. The game will keep you busy for a while and also makes you feel good.
Why Dungeon Princess is worth downloading
The story of the game is quite simple. The hero “ISM” tries to turn his sister “NADIE” into a princess. Admittedly, this isn’t exactly the plot that Hollywood movies are made of, but the storyline plays out quite entertaining nonetheless. You start the game with these two siblings and are immediately thrown into one of the 1000 (!) possible dungeons. However, it is not a matter of exploring a dungeon in the classic crawler manner, but rather of giving the opponents a real punch in the laces.
You have all sorts of heroes at your disposal, which you can gradually collect. I was pretty confused at first when I saw the first opponent, because unfortunately there is no explanation. The game looks like the classic, turn-based Final Fantasy parts, but it plays a little differently. By tapping on the different characters, you can activate their skills, which come with different cooldowns. So the tactical aspect of classic RPGs is a bit missing, but it’s quite fun to bludgeon the opponent one by one.
As you travel through the different worlds, you will also collect all kinds of equipment with which you can increasingly strengthen your heroes. You can also get all kinds of consumables from the creepy ghost in your base if the fight gets too difficult. In general, the game increases the level of difficulty at a comfortable pace, so that you don’t have to despair after three levels.
The aforementioned controls are also very quick and easy to pick up once you get the hang of it. The technical aspect comes into play, especially at higher levels, when you have to use various buffs and debuffs to become dangerous to your opponents at all.
By the way, there are no ads for this version of the game. You have the option to buy in-app items, but these are not Pay-2-Win, just cosmetic and QOL items. The 8-bit graphics is certainly a great plus for many, but the constant anime clips probably won’t please all gamers.
Does Dungeon Princess respect your privacy?
The game comes from the South Korean developer SSICOSM. If you speak Korean, it is best to take a look at the data protection declaration, because it is not available in German, English or any other language. Two trackers are mentioned on the Exodus analysis platform, but they are not too bad.
In addition, the game requires 7 permissions, which are also nothing new. Mainly it is about the authorizations to be able to access your internet or to be able to charge you for the previously mentioned in-app purchases.
