Dysmantle

Despite this light narrative, DYSMANTLE remains an accomplishment — it’s a crafting adventure that doesn’t just have a destructible world, it makes destroying that world important and satisfying. DYSMANTLE may just be a gimmick stretched out to full-game length, but it’s a hell of a gimmick, and it certainly deserves praise.

It’s like Diablo, except you mostly fight dressers, fridges and street lights. [Issue#257, p.76]

Dysmantle elevates somewhat shallow mechanics with a satisfying and addictive gameplay loop centered around exploration and character progression.

I sunk a lot of hours in to this & loved it. I even shelled out for the Underworld DLC which was a waste of money.

This is a game with a super interesting concept that is really fun - until it isn't. Dismantle is all about destroying stuff to get upgrades, and the resource loop just works. You'll come across objects you can't destroy with your current tools. When you unlock that new tool you'll get access to a new resource, and from now on every one of those objects you come across in the game world means getting one step closer to your next upgrade. Unfortunately the game gives you access to most resources at around 50% completion, and now you're only ever in need of 1 or 2 materials. And you don't get those from destroying new objects, but rather they are region locked or related to open world activities. Now with one aspect of the core gameplay loop gone you realize how repetitive the gameplay is. This is not to say destroying stuff is all you do, the game also introduces fun concepts such as tower defense minigames, a museum and farming.

Decent game, but also a horrific grindfest. The whole point of the game is to run around a huge map breaking stuff with your hammer/machete/whatever to upgrade the tool and be able to break bigger stuff. Upgrading machete with stone and electronics, upgrading hats with metal and wood - it's grinding for the sake of grinding.

Разрабы не долекие , решили по фану. Создать данный угар, мне нравиться в этой игре. Атмосфера но, я устал , проходить их квесты, найди принеси отдохни . По моему субъективному мнению, игра норм, но сюжет перетягивает одеяло на себя. Так что прошу вас больше не делать, продолжений данной игры!!!

Game is like a boring, repetitive job. If you like to grind grind grind, this may be for you though.
