92/100

Guild of Dungeoneering Ultimate Edition remains one of the most delightful subversions of traditional RPG tropes. Turning the player into the dungeon designer rather than the adventurer creates a clever puzzle dynamic where you must carefully balance risk and reward to keep your hero alive. The charming hand-drawn paper aesthetic and humorous bard songs give the game immense personality.

This remastered Ultimate Edition runs beautifully on iOS, polishing UI elements for touch controls while packing in all historical expansion content. It is an essential premium purchase for card strategy and tabletop RPG enthusiasts.

Dinsun Review

Guild of Dungeoneering's novelty remains its strongest asset. Designing the dungeon to tempt your idiot hero is genuinely funny, and the hand-drawn sketch style holds up well. RNG can screw over a good run without much recourse, which gets frustrating, but it's a solid release overall.
