The verdict
Two faithful Capcom D&D arcade brawlers with branching paths, RPG touches and great co-op, held back by a weak PC port. Skip it if you want WASD rebinding or solid controller support.
Great for
Arcade beat 'em up fans, D&D fans and nostalgic players who want co-op with friends
Main risk
Poor PC port: locked keyboard movement, flaky controller support, and cheap quarter-eater difficulty
What players love
Deep beat 'em up with RPG elements
Mentioned in ~1 in 4 positive reviews
“Levelling systems, very distinct character classes, branching paths, secret areas, randomized equipment drops... it's a robust little experience.”
