Din's Curse: Demon War

I am guessing that if you have made it this far you are interested in what a gameplay-driven title can offer, rather than being put off by its lack of presentation and story. If so, you will not be disappointed. Din’s Curse is unique due to its dynamism; this branches out to classes, modifiers, events and pretty much all other aspects of the gameplay. Its class customisation system is particularly deep due to it not only providing a number of different classes, but by also allowing players to mix things up with their own hybrid class. With Demon War players get even more choice with the addition of the Demon Hunter class.

I was warned that there was a chance I wouldn’t like this game by friends of mine who had played it, but for an indie title, I was pretty impressed. Once you get past your internal snobbishness about the graphics and find the charm and fun of the world, it makes all the difference.

Just like Din’s Curse, Demon War is fun, but I still recommend it in small doses. The action tends to get repetitive after 4-5 towns and, if you’re no collector of sets and rare items, you won’t find many interesting rewards in the idea of endlessly killing brainless monsters; not to mention that the dynamic side of the world can frustrate less patient players. So if you don’t get along with the idea that in a game you get random, uncontrollable events that are out of your influence (just like in real life), then Demon War won’t keep you interested for too long.
