Dungeon Defenders Critic Reviews

A surprise entry for one of my personal favorite games of 2011. Dungeon Defenders is a standout title that anyone who calls themselves a 'gamer' should own.

Dungeon Defenders is deep. I don't use that word lightly. RPG fans will be in heaven with this game.

It strikes a balance between action, RPG, and tower defense in a way that turns it into the Castle Crashers of tower defense. It will keep you occupied for weeks and months to come, provided you have the local or online friends to play with.

Dungeon Defenders merges RPG elements with tower defense and action aspects, and that's a good recipe. You'll rarely get so many hours of gaming fun fur such a low price.

As long as you're not dead-set on playing by yourself, don't miss one of the most exciting and habit-forming co-op experiences on Live Arcade.

Dungeon Defenders is an easy one to recommend and slides in to the 'can't miss' category, right next to some of the AAA titles we have hitting store shelves in the coming weeks. Except this one you don't have to get up off your couch to get.

Dungeon Defenders is easily AAA material at a quarter of the cost, which we don't see with Arcade titles that often. If you're in the mood for a great strategy RPG then look no further than Dungeon Defenders.

While you can play in single player, the game just screams for multiplayer co-op. So do yourselves a favor grab some of your Dungeon delving friends and have a go at Dungeon Defenders, you will smile and you will have some fun.

A few imperfections aside, developer Trendy Entertainment hit the nail on the head with Dungeon Defenders: It's unique, deep, addictive, and cheap.

I can talk all day about how engaging a round of Dungeon Defenders is, but I can't emphasize enough how important it is to find people to play with.

An unquestionable downloadable gem, Dungeon Defenders is a truly refreshing experience amongst a market dominated by whizzing bullets and big explosions. Just make sure you play it with some friends.

Dungeon Defenders is misleading. Sweet colors, friendly characters make you believe this is a simple game. But Dungeon Defenders is a deep tower defense-game and a good one at that.

It's a colorful, cute, and innocent title that will kick your ass if given a chance.

Dungeon Defenders is frantic, colorful and deep in a class of games that's usually just frantic and colorful.

And that's probably the best summation of Dungeon Defenders: a great (virtual) place to hang our with your friends.

Superb mix of Tower Defense and action role-player that is one of the year's best and most addictive co-operative games.

Dungeon Defenders is ambitious, pretty and highly addictive; co-op junkies will no doubt eat this one up.

A nice blend of Tower Defense and Action/RPG gameplay, Dungeon Defenders uses the carrot (characters with a persistant progression even when you fail) and the stick (a Dark Souls-like difficulty) with talent. The artistic direction and really punishing gameplay may be its worst shortcomings, but playing cooperatively with three friends still is a very nice experience.

A good Live Arcade game and an original take on the tower defense genre, with good variety and an entertaining gameplay, especially if played with friends.

A brilliant game that crossed tower defense with third person action and a hint of the good old RPG. Played cooperatively this little gem will keep you going for hours on end.
