60 of 191 · most liked firstScore: ◆◆◆⬖◇ (3.5/5) TLDR: Funny, charming RPG with good writing and clever parody moments, but held back by uneven systems and often frustrating, RNG-heavy combat. Worth a look on sale, preferably on a lower difficulty. If there was ever a game that I’ve come away from with a love-hate relationship in recent years, DONAC (zero chance I’m spelling out the entire name every time I mention it) would fit the bill. This game has pretty great potential and it even occasionally reaches it, but…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The random elements of the game are bad, the sheer amount of luck you need is way too high. Swing and miss seem to be the norm, and when you think your power abilities will be there to help; it won't, but only waste up your turn.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The more I think about this game, the less I like it. I want to be clear here, I wish I could like this game, the writing is good enough to tempt me to keep going in spite of how bad the actual game part is. But the actual game part is so bad. The common thread in other negative reviews is that the RNG feels unfairly biased against you, and I'd have to agree. I've seen review replies and forum posts saying that's the point because it's supposed to be funny and on theme with the original…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk (DoN) is a tongue-in-cheek attempt at a dungeon-crawling RPG. Full of weird humor poking fun at RPG tropes, tactical battles, a story that goes in multiple directions, distinct classes and colorful graphics; this game should appeal to most fans of the genre. There are two make-or-break characteristics of the game: 1. Let's start with what makes DoN distinct and that's the humor. This is not a serious game. The humor doesn't always work but…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sometimes you buy a game from a discount site for $1.65 usd and, after playing it for only ten minutes, realize you paid way too much.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I feel a bit rude writing "it's not bad, but I still don't recommend it" but that's where I'm at. I thought the game was just "fine", but nothing specific stood out to make me want to commit to playing through it instead of dropping it and playing something better-than-just-fine - particularly given it's toward the longer side of things. I will briefly note that the combat often felt a bit too puzzle-y (where there's disctintly right/wrong approaches to combat that can make the same fights…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At first glance, The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos is a fun and quirky game. Its early hours offer lighthearted humor and entertaining moments, but the experience quickly turns repetitive and monotonous. Core mechanics are either underdeveloped or barely used, surfacing only once or twice in a campaign that can stretch to around 30 hours. Combat, while initially engaging, soon suffers from repetition. After the third or fourth chapter, battles rely less on strategic depth and more…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I don't usually write reviews, but for this one I'll make an exception. This game is an absolute master piece. So much fun and humor and RPG in one game - you don't often stumble upon. The game is all about tactics and honestly I don't even mind, if my characters made a mistake, because it's again so much fun just to listen and watch them fail - you don't usually 'enjoy' this part in standard games. I think I didn't even use the load button, because you don't have to. Sometime you just want to…

First of all-completly unbalanced combat, especially bosses (Example: Splat Jaypak & Vanna-Every round ONLY your team gets powerfull debuffs, bosses themselves can convert your team members to their team,attack from across whole map,almost everytime deal crits,heavily boost enemies,call reinforcements, Constant heal to all enemies, not to mention sick stats like more than 50% phys. mag. resistance or complete immunity to…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"Elf: yipiie im getting better Dwarf: better than nothing is still not much" By this lovely conversation can inclined players already guess how the atmosphere of the game and especially the interaction between our heroes goes along in this nice little game, with the terrible name. Funnily i wanted to write a review for this game, since i finished it a few years ago already, but quite like for our inept heroes, there came always something unexpected up. Anyways, better late than never, here we…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There is a strange charm in well done parodies that are also consistent in themselves. They are rare, hard to pull off, and most of them just aim for giggles rather than a fleshed out experience. To see games like this one, with gloriously long titles, is an overall pleasant experience in this regard. If a fun dungeon adventure with all the known D&D tropes sounds fun, this is the game for you. Watch out though, fleshed out and consistent as it is, it still has horrendous RNG and a good amount…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Note: I'm reviewing this one in french as the IP is native to that language and I was going in as a fan of the original material. My expectations were high (too high) when it came to voice-overs which are fundamental to Naheulbeuk. Au final, j'ai pas été capable d'embarquer... Naheulbeuk pour moi c'est d'abord des voix. J'ai aimé la BD, mais ici, rien à faire, les voice-overs tuent le truc dans l'oeuf. J'ai duré 20 minutes avant de tourner la page. C'est un cRPG basic, lourd en tutorial et…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So far I’ve spent 30+ hours wandering through The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk. It’s been a real delight. It’s funny, strangely enchanting, and you actually start to like the characters. The art is vibrant, the story is fun, and even the side missions feel alive with that chaotic good energy. It’s made with a sense that the characters are self-aware and it comes up frequently. I made The Elf my Steam background. She may be a walking blonde joke cliche, but she is probably the kindest and most…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Any positive or good qualities this game may possess don't matter when every combat encounter devolves into watching your heroes miss every single attack turn after turn. The comedic incompetence of the characters doesn't work as a basis for a game that has a tactical turn-based combat system at its core. Why am I punished for trying to play this ?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gets boring very quickly, because the gameplay lags depths.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played through it twice, once on release and recently. All in all this is just a genuine good game. It's not perfect by any means, i'd say it's even quite bad in some aspects (navigating around the dungeon, which is like, half the game, is quite tedious; you can easily miss some sidequests if you don't use a guide; and the sound effects are sometimes very annoying, especially the eating sounds in tavern areas (this is somehow worse in the DLC, i don't know if i have misophonia or anything but…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Generic dungeon crawler with some attempts at humour that often had me wince instead of laugh. The tactical gameplay seems passable and a bit fun. The game is held back by camera controls being locked on the party making traversing any map a chore instead of fun. It's not a terrible game but also not worth spending your money or time on.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to like this game but there were certain aspects about the combat that just felt horrible. Like having a 140% chance to land a hit and it gets dodged... and I understand the game has a built-in system to combat bad luck by giving a charge meter with different abilities available based on bad luck. But it did not make up for the frustration that came with it. Game overall left me unfulfilled and upset, and that's not what I want in a game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An otherwise fun game ruined by horrible RNG. If you want to test your ability to resist the urge to rage quit, then this is the game for you.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, despite being the usual Critical Roll "turned my D&D stream into a video game" slop, it actually had some potential, I mean good writing is good writing, even if it's mainstream. Sadly, the spoken dialogue - THE primary reason to play the game - is executed terribly. Most of the voice acting would be solid, but there was no effort or care taken for direction. The tones of the characters often mis-match the conversation or the scenario. The actors clearly recorded all their lines…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeon of Naheulbeuk is not at funny as it thinks it is. I did chuckle at times but its not a laugh riot unless you think a Barbarian talking about foot odor and a Dwarf swearing at everybody is hilarious. Luckily it makes up for it by being an excellent turn based strategy game. I really enjoyed how unique each character felt and how the team support and cover options worked very well. The battles tended to add twists to keep things from getting too samey too! If you enjoy turn based…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun dialog, well-architected storyline, very self-aware and sarcastic about RPG design. Definitely worth whatever I paid for it in some bundle and then some. Hours played was a lot of background idling, could probably finish the main storyline in ~10h and another ~10-15 for the side quests in the base game. Kudos to the devs for an incredibly polished and enjoyable experience!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is really a middle of the road game (wish Steam had a "maybe" rating). If you like turn based rpgs with a LOT of loot and exploration and can put up with REALLY bad writing and voice acting, then sure, go for it. But if story and dialog mean a lot to you (as they do me), this is going to be painful. The writing seems like it was done by teen boys, and 3/4 of the voice acting is just bad. I thought it was going to be funny from the trailer, but it all makes me just roll my eyes and want…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The writing here makes South Park feel like you are reading Crime and Punishment.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeon of Naheulbeuk, as a concept, was created in 2000 as a webseries-type thing. Back when making jokes about Tabletop Games' culture and tropes was niche, and seen as groundbreaking if there was decent equipment. A lot has changed since then. The humour if this game is a time capsule. Some things are best left remembered fondly rather than being confronted with what it actually was like. On a technical note, it was annoying as hell when you would stop moving to check something, but then…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Looks great, unplayable. Camera is defaulted to inverted and you can't change it. Makes me sick every time i move the camera.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perfectly captures the silly fun feeling of playing a tabletop RPG with a group of idiot friends. The CPRG genre needs more games like this rather than Larian's bear sex MMIW2GSLGBTQQIA+ perversions.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The voice lines are obnoxious, the movement through the dungeon is clunky, and the camera management is infuriating. The gameplay is what you'd expect, but nothing more. Very generic game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not complicated to play, primarily point and click, good tutorial, "easy" mode is challenging enough but not frustrating. I am enjoying the game and hope it doesn't end too soon.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This must be one of the most infuriating games I've ever played. Early on, everything was fine, but now I'm at a point in game where enemies deal HUGE amounts of damage( single target and AOE ), they outnumber your team, summon even more enemies, debuff you like crazy with grenades and spells and have an insane dodge chance. I feel like the game is balanced in favor of the enemies all the time so I can't bring myself to continue through this slog of a game. And I'm so dissapointed, because…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I listened to the quest back in the day and it always cracked me up how good it was. Time to play through the game now.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Arcadey turn-based tactics with a fairly no BS learning curve or mechanical difficulty to it (I'm looking at you, Gloomhaven). A solid TRPG addition to any library and great "pick up and just play" title where you don't need to worry about character creation sheets with stat sheets, creation decisions you'll regret, or min-max metas (at least on normal difficulty). Very lighthearted "we're acknowledging we're playing D&D and kind of making fun of it" story with crude/Munchkin-like humor,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An amazing game I am happy to have stumbled upon. The gameplay was well-designed, the story so-so, but the characters...were soooo funny. The banter between the Elf and Dwarf had me laughing pretty hard. Whoever wrote their lines needs to keep writing. If you are like me and never heard of this game, I strongly recommend giving it a go.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TLDR: Buy it on sale, and temper your expectations. It's clear a lot of effort and love went into it, but the game is very average. I got the game relatively cheaply in a HumbleBundle bundle. $35 is an insane price, especially considering the game's age. Navigating the game world/ combat wasn't terribly engaging or fun. Enemies are too spongy. Building your characters largely comes down to Main Stat Up. The writing is serviceable, but the jokes are more eye-rolley than gut-laughey. I found…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game idea is fun, the realization has a lot of pros, but there are 2 factor that I can't really stand: 1st thing the game is completely unbalanced: you can stumble upon battles that just can't be won if you don't follow the story step by step grinding every single xp to reach the point. Second point it is too highly relying on luck. critical hit and critical fail occours very often on both side. While this is somehow balanced and in the long run it may seem fun, a combo of a critical hit…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly I had some hesitation purchasing the game because of all the mixed reviews, particularly the comments on the prevalence of critical failures and how game-ending they are because I like a challenge but I'm not a souls-like difficulty connoisseur. I played it on Epic Gest as I usually like to play on the second hardest difficulty and honestly it was a lot fun! I was expecting to fail all the time because of my expectations from reading the reviews and it's actually not too bad and not…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This review is for anyone who is concerned about the morals of this game: don't buy it. I had a hard time researching what's in this game. There's no ESRB rating, which isn't unheard of but makes it extremely difficult to find details on what kinds of "mature content" are in the game. With this game, there's not even a basic "general mature content" tag to warn you that something is in the game. I found one review that mentioned strong language but said it's mostly from the dwarf and you can…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A short but really fun game, definitely recommend it for anyone who's a fan of tactical gameplay. Great sense of humor and a lot and I do mean A LOT of ester eggs from many universes. The dialog is light and fun, parodying serious dungeoning. Might replay it in a few years with a different setup, who knows.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Combat isn't balanced in the slightest. Can't do any other quest or fights, so i'm soft locked at one combat encounter. Don't waste you're time unless you're doing the easy setting.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun little turn based game. I played it while talking to me lad Doug
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →genuinely not fun
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Are yopu a fan of the Naheulbeuk universe? Then you might find some enjoyment out of this. Do you like well-made game with fair rules and balanced gameplay? Tough luck, what we got here is a game that's up there with Bloodbowl and Xcom in terms of RNG, the game almost always seems to favor the enemies no matter what the situation is. Oh, you're at the end of a hard fight, things aren't great but you have a slim chance of actually pulling through? Fumble! Dodge! Miss! The last few enemies are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cant recommend, playing it gives me Xcom 95% hit rate flashbacks, and no amount of cope about "oh just put points into correct stats" will save it. Only recommended for those who really enjoy the most asinine ways of making game difficult. If you want a way better DnD like rpg, aside from obvious BG3 go for something like Solasta crown of the magister, a much better game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The main story is exactly what you expect out of a DND trope game. This game was never worth $35. I paid $5 when it was on sale, and the ending was so aggravating that it made me seriously consider if it was even worth that. The fighting mechanics, and the upgrades are one of the few saving graces of the game. Fighting was truly fun experience, and it's what kept having come back to finish the game. Whoever designed the game needs a medal. The map looks great, the style is good and overall I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great voice but I just can't get into the gameplay, got bored over time
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While the story is fun and interesting, the combat is beyond tedious. It's bad enough that it is turn based, but it is incredibly slow most of the times as well, especially when you are grossly outnumbered. Expect on average to spend about 1/2 hour per combat encounter (assuming you win), with most of that time waiting for your opponents to make there moves (many of which are attacks designed to make your characters lose a turn). At this point when I'm used to "real time" combat, this…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a fun play. I liked it enough that about halfway through the campaign the DLC's went on sale and I purchased them all. There is a good variety of enemies that you face with different tactics and abilities. Most of the battles you fight give you some upgrades to gear, so leave no corner unsearched. Hit the TAB button a lot.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →combat choices are very limited by design. buffing precombat not available in combat each character has one move one action. if you move you get hit by attacks of opportunity [that can be fatal] choose action: buff, attack or heal/revive a companion ends up being a choice of healing or the one possible attack... so bad that the designers even built in a system that allows you to have "bonus healing from time to time" when combat balance is poor, the solution is not having an external…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Enjoyed playing this game and never encountered a bug after 100 hours. The replay value is fairly limited though so really just 1 or 2 playthrough for most people. It plays very much like a goofier Divinity Original Sin but it has all predefined fights and the fights are turn-based. Definitely recommend to get on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →extremely complicated and very difficult to just get started. the instructions aren't very good and you try to follow them but they leave out some things so you find out you're not doing what they want and it's not working because they didn't tell you how to do it right. also everything is very small and hard to see.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A couple bugs here & there; the characters highlighting when they talk is immersion breaking... Buuuutt.... It has some humour, there's not that many good grid based, turn based, class based games like this on Steam... Divinity: Original Sin's little brother & has Steam cards. Thumbs up.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been playing turn-based RPGs for a good part of the last 25 years and it's my favorite genre, so when I saw this game on sale I figured why not. Sadly this game is NOT FUN. There are mechanics like critical failure rolls to make the game more challenging but this is just lazy and annoying. I picked a hard difficulty and was expecting enemies to hit harder, have more health, be more tactical but instead I got critical failure rolls. There are also 7 members in the party with option to add…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a game based on a funny french serie of the same name, and if you're a fan I 100% recommend it for the gags alone. If you aren't a fan however, what you have is a weird, frustrating turn based RPG with hidden mechanics and very high difficulty. The game is very frustrating not only because it's unfair, but because the mechanics inside that you need to know to make you decisions are hidden or very hard to see. Even on the normal difficulty, you need to calculate every move and it's…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Quite good fun time. References, teasing and trolling of different lores made me smile :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A had great fun with this game and found it to be a thoroughly good romp - with lots of different abilities to use between the characters and a very good upgrade / level-up system, along with good pacing. All ruined a little bit at the end by a final boss who pretty much dodges all of the very few attacks you can throw at him before his barrier grows back again. This, plus those annoying additional reinforcements, made the last battle a real chore for me before I actually gave up on it. Good…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →just because it was nicer without the dwarf !!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is unique and I really wish I could recommend it but the combat is god awful. The art style and characters grew on me and the toilet humour added to the charm. I had to get used to it but I don't mind that. I'm a huge xcom fan and I'm wondering if I went back to play xcom now I'd find it impossible to play. The % to hit mechanic is basically a % of how likely you are to enjoy this game. Perhaps % to hit is just outdated as a mechanic.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is really unique. The story and the characters’ behavior are hilarious. I’ve never played a dungeon game where the characters mess around and joke like this
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As it is Naheulbeuk game, it should not be judged seriously. Humor is absolutely hilarious, just gotta love D&D jokes. And characters suite that well, each having unique quirks. Character dialogs and spontaneous interactions are fun to follow. There are some tutorial style missions in beginning. It game seems too hard, just get you basic right. Like I did after rushing into battles, forgetting tactical advantage. Battles in Amulet Of Chaos feels just right, well balanced difficulty. If you…
