7DRL 2011 Review Challenge

I’ve taken up a challenge: review all 42 successful 7DRL entries! I spent most of Sunday playing and am very impressed so far.

I managed to do review 8 so far on my development blog, with more in the pipeline:

  • Lord Bistian Unnamed (BroQuest)
  • Destiny of Heroes
  • 7DRL Challenge Challenge
  • Rook
  • Benhem’s 2D/3D dungeon
  • Pitman
  • Vicious Orcs
  • Gridfolk

More to come during the week. I am basing my list off of temple of the roguelike’s list, so let me know if I should or shouldn’t be reviewing your game.

It must be said again… congratulations to all participants. The amount of work involved in all of these games (including the non-successes) is absolutely mind-boggling to me, every year.

  1. Hey, thank you very much for the nice review!

  2. I’m the author of Alfarogue and some hero failed the copy-paste of my topic @ google groups to elderlore (http://www.elderlore.com/en/planet-roguelike/7drl-success-alfarogue.htm), so here’s the download link, if you want to review it: http://servut.us/nizpu/random/AlfaRogue_2011_7DRL.rar

    Although, the game is pretty limited so I don’t think you get anything to review from it. :D

  3. Good luck reviewing all the entries! I may try if I ever get the chance. Might want to update your link with an extra colon (:) after the http part of your link, it breaks right now.

  4. I’d like to give them a try as well. Where can I find a complete list of all finished 7DRL along with links to each one of them?

  5. @Björn: There are lists at RogueTemple and RogueBasin, and a partial list on this blog. Probably none of these lists are entirely complete, but I hope they’re a good start. :-)

  6. Ah thanks for the links, Tom. I started playing some entries yesterday…

  7. Oh you might want to fix that link to your blog, heoricfisticuffs :-)

  8. I fixed the link (there were two “http”s…).

  9. hi, i write ‘destiny of heroes’ and i want to thank you for your review. i am already addressing some of the issues you pointed out. will try to get rid of whitespace. also working on a graphical version right now. so thanks again, glad you liked the monsters and dungeon generation.

  11. Hi bob, I couldn’t run DoH, as I have to run it in my Window VM (virtualbox), and it wont allow me setup directx. I enabled 2D/3D hardware. Do you know what I can try to fix this?
