Default Companions - Dungeon-Crawler/RPG by smuttlewerk interactive


"It's pretty rare to see an iOS strategy game that not only has a captivating story, sound gameplay mechanics, and challenging difficulty, but also manages to accomplish all this while not being a tower defense derivative. Companions manages to achieve all this and more, and leads to a great experience for those iPad owners looking to try out a real strategy game." TA Review

Haven't been following this game's progress, but it looks interesting enough to take a chance on. I understand it's a tower defense/rpg cross sort of thing? Or am I off on that? In any case going to pick it up so guess I'll shortly find out.

Rouge-like meaning no touchpad, but click to move. Had I known I wouldn't have brought it, but a least I can hope the developer ads a pad. Other than a few spelling errors the game seems polished and like an interesting take on the Dungeon Crawler. The graphic seems a bit too tiny for my liking, but again that is a personal preference.

Not a bad game so far, but I am not blown away either.

Only done the tutorial so far. My main concern from the previews was that things on the screen may be too small. It was unfounded, though. Controls are straight-forward and intuitive, at least once you get the hang of using two fingers to scroll. There are some tiny spelling/grammar errors here and there, and I think "loads" should really be replaced with "charges". And I prefer Tolkien's "elves" and "dwarves" over "elfs" an "dwarfs". But this is just nitpicking. The writing is good and humorous.

Combat sounds and effects could be a bit more impressive (missing the "oomph!" feeling somehow!), but I really haven't played long and the first impressions are definitely positive. I know what game I'll spend the evening with ...
