In reply to gswaran. That's the slot machine game? Yup, played it a few times. Not sure what to make of it to be honest. Maybe worth a deconstruction in the future.

I havent reached the final leagues of the game but atthis point I m starting to think that the best strategy is just look for the esisst challenges. I find that since most of the levels are differents there is little room for actual practice or skill, the best idea is to look for someone who got a bad dungeon (soem are way better than others, also randomized) or is upgrading a trap. I actually find this interesting from the desing perspective not because its fun, but because it manages to turn the player into a thief, it makes them want to cheat instead of using actual skill (there are even some bonuses you can use to greatly reduce the skill level requiered to pass a level).

As a moderator of the games forums I’m glad to hear such a positive deconstruction of the game, and I’m going to be with Zeptolab and KoT the whole way until we hit that top 100 grossing mark!

Thanks a ton for this fantastic article!

Great article, I played the game and in my case the “key” to open the dungeon was the reason to stop playing. I think is frustrating
