Soda Dungeon 2 Reviews

by Al1223

Can’t say enough about how awesome thus game is. Every five star review totally justified. The fact of the matter is though it’s unplayable as currently designed because SodaDungeon2 will “reset” if you minimize it, sometimes in seconds. Sometimes in minutes. Sometimes never. So in order to go through hundreds of levels you have to leave your device on, window active, for literally hours at a time. Now developers I realize this is an IOS and Apple... let’s say... feature. But it doesn’t happen with music apps. So either program the game to handle it or allow better active saving. So frustrating to have a game experience ruined because it is designed to the games own weakness. Did you happen to work on Neverwinter nights? Moving six characters though a dungeon single file. Yeah let’s develop maps that emphasize even more how awful the games one weakness is! Argh.

The story in this game is utter garbage compared to the first game. Now it just feels like the player is the punchline of a very bad joke on the standard rpg formula. You didn’t even come up with anything new
(Spoiler warning)
The dark lords being fused into one evil dark lord is the exact same story we played in SD1, but you just copied and pasted that concept on the new game, only you made the bosses lame and stupid instead of actually making them remotely imposing. And 3 of the bosses (Dark Lady, Darker Lord, Darkest Lord) are just recolors of the first boss with mediocre movesets. At least the first game forces you to use nurses to heal that one boss since it’s undead, instead of this game letting idiots try to use 6 darkmages like that’s not stupid. This needs a lot of work, and maybe even a little bit of post-game content. Like for example, where is our lair of despair?

It’s an okay game in my opinion however it doesn’t have the same feel or look as the original like the hit and crit sounds are so bland in this game while in the original when you hit a crit it was amazing the new mechanics are also really weird without needing to be and the music is the absolute worst aspect of the game in the original soda dungeon every area got different music and you could warp to any level at anytime after unlocking the wizard but in this you need to go to warrior level? But I digress it’s an okay game if it was the original and if the original soda dungeon was this game it would be a lot better however the mechanics of the game the music and the designs of this sequel are a bit lackluster compared to the original (I also say this with having over 300 hours in the original soda dungeon. But otherwise okay game not worthy of being considered a sequel though.

This game is a God send and we all needed a great mobile game that treats the players correctly and this game nailed it! I’ve always been a fan of rouge-like RPG’s and this has to be one of my top favorites. The grinding in this game isn’t that tedious when it comes to grinding, but there is a reason why I’m giving it 4/5 stars. The end game after dimension 10 isn’t perfect. What I mean is, grinding for the legendary gear doesn’t feel all that much powerful from the rare gear. It pretty much doubles the damage but there’s nothing much else that’s special that makes it legendary. Also if it does t have a gem socket, it’s pretty much useless to me, in my opinion. Other than this minor inconvenience, this game is more than a great game.

WHAT? NO GREEDY DEVELOPERS???????? THANK YOU. You have the option to SAVE UP IN GAME MONEY to purchase certain items that you can usually ONLY buy in games. This is a masterpiece done right. Thank you keep it that way. ALSO THE ADS ARENT ANNOYING THANK GODDDDDD I’m a huge fan of the first and this one lives up to its name!!!! I hope there will be like pvp or something one day (By the way, I will be spending money sometime on this game in the future I just like to enjoy free to play as much as I can :))

edit: Once you pass the main story line there’s no point in playing, maybe add in multiplayer or something so there’s a point to still grind? Otherwise I might delete the game soon, the charm was fantastic, but it looses it when you’ve done everything

I really enjoyed the first game and hearing about the second I was pretty excited so when I finally downloaded the game and played it for the first few minutes... I was both happy and disappointed. I liked it because of all the new aspects that were added like having a team of six, the new music for every different area, all the new creatures and bosses,But in my opinion it doesn’t measure up to the OG and I know that’s hard but I think lots of the new aspects like crafting and different buildings were all introduced really fast and so after playing for (note) only and hour I’ve come to the conclusion... It’s okay not as good as the OG, but it’s pretty alright needs a little work though.

I really love this game and I also loved playing the first one but after only playing for one month I’m basically done I’m almost done with all the quests and achievements and all that would be left is to buy things that would take me years to Grind the money to get that wouldn’t really make that much of a difference also for some reason I’m not getting any more battle cards even tho I’m logged out, but that’s besides the point it’s a great game and I really love all the interactions with the dark lord because he’s funny and I would really like to see more stuff like that in maybe a future update or even a third game, I spend hours playing the game because it’s so good and all that’s left to say is that I love this game and despite’s there’s not a lot left to do I will probably still keep playing and to also say thank you to the people that made this game the way it is, thank you all for this great game and have an amazing day. Ps add more relics

This game is a gem of the mobile game genre. The first game is unrivaled as my top 3 favorite games on any platform of all time. While this game is overwhelmingly amazing, it doesn’t have the exact same feel as the original. Now hear me out, you can’t one up perfection, but this game comes close by adding new mechanics that improve the QOL of the game. Many systems are different than the original, although not worse. No game will ever come close to the experience of the first game, but this game is definitely a solid 9.7/10. Thank you for this masterpiece.

I enjoyed the first soda dungeon and this one is just as well done! I would like to see some different kind of dungeons though, seeing the first 100 dungeon monsters over and over gets boring at times. Another thing i would like to see added are some script changes! Such as for the thief, is there could be a script log so that multiple thief's aren’t using their ransack abilities on the same monster that would be awesome! Also for the Huntress and multiple uses of their Mark ability on the same monster too! All in all, a great game.

This game is amazing overall everything you can do in it but I had 2 problems. First of all the problems is the saves. Sometimes when you log out of the game after selecting a party when you come back in it goes back to the original way it was before you got the party. The other way is that there isn’t much of a variety of stages. I mean we mostly only have the same 5 stages, we need a ice or fire stage like soda dungeon 1 had. In fact I don’t even care if you just copy paste enemies I just want some new biomes.

But I do have some suggestions. I’m not sure any of these have been added yet, but if they haven’t, here they are!

• A trading post, you don’t trade with other players because there isn’t a multiplayer feature yet, but with AIs. AIs would be wanting something for something else in return, like a quest but with items.

• Adding to that, maybe you could add a popularity stat that could increase/decrease the chance of people coming? It could be gained by going further into the dungeons, trading [if you do add the trading feature] and how much trading requests you get [again, if If you do add the trading feature.]

• Make monsters not have certain HP, but a small selection. Like for the rats, 2-4 HP. Small difference, but it makes more use of the HP seeing stone, and makes fights a little more better. This doesn’t include bosses because, they’re, well, bosses. [this may be a hard one, as you’d need to update your bestiary completely if you did add it, so I wouldn’t expect it to be added.]

• And last but DEFIANTLY not least, once you defeat the final boss, and he goes away to a higher floor, you should face a different boss, a little weaker, but still capable of doing some damage, once you reach that floor. That makes it so getting to level 101 again doesn’t feel so...empty.

Sorry for talking up a bunch of your time just by making you read this. Hope these suggestions at least help you with the newer updates.

To be honest, I’m a little surprised. I never played the original Soda Dungeon, and I’m not a fan of pixel art. But I’m so glad I gave this one a try! Obviously made with love, and very addictive gameplay.

My only suggestion for improvement would be some kind of info button on the combat screens, so we could get some info about the monsters we’re facing and make better choices about which ones to kill first. Maybe a long press on the monster to open a pop-up box detailing the monster’s abilities?

Anyway, thanks very much for a great game :)

Hello! I’ve been playing soda dungeon 2 for a week or 2, and I think the game could use some sort of global auction house. A place we’re people can put up resources, weapons, armor, etc. They can price it how every they want, I think this would give gold a bit more of a meaning after you unlock all of the cheaper upgrades like the buildings and the tavern stuff. After those the only use is the 500 mil upgrades which will take a long time to get, so in the mean time, you can buy and sell gear on the auction house.
TL:DR: I want a global auction house added

The game does not pressure you into making purchases and rarely even shows you adds that you don’t want to watch in general the best part of this game is the design and the little details for example on the cooking area (can’t remember the exact name or floor number) I saw them cooking a rat in the stew and I loved it and how the mini bosses/bosses actually looked good, I really like it’s not a cash grab like many other games are and how it does not push you to make a purchase if you are a free to play player you can easily accomplish what a paying player can do

All in all an amazing game

by Ryan Nuebel

Way too hooked to Soda Dungeon, super fun. The game is clever and humorous, while still having a feeling of progression without timers and the ads are there, but most are optional and not in your face. My one gripe, is when you are selling items and you scroll to the bottom to sell junk you are never going to use, after you sell an item, can you please leave the selected item pointer at the bottom, because eventually I am going to be selling a bunch of junk and I am going to click too much and sell my best gear. I will update to 5 stars if this is changed! Thank you, and have a great day!

This was one of the first non run mobile games I was ever into and it started with the first when I was nine. It gave me something to play not only on the way to school but in free time to because I didn’t have much. Seeing a second one made now is so amazing. I’m just putting this here to say thanks to the devs for making a sequel to my favorite childhood mobile game and easily the best game to me on SodaDungeon2 Store at that time. This is amazing to see with all the new crappy game at the top of the free list and just what the people now are making in general. I know this wasn’t really a real review but thank you on behalf of me and so many others.

This is an amazing sequel to the first soda dungeon, me and a friend used to leave that game running for hours upon hours while we played basketball or something. about 2 weeks ago I was scrolling through the AppStore and saw THIS, I texted a screenshot to my friend and we both instantly got it. I was so freaking exited and when I launched it... it lived up to every possible expectation I could think of, I beat the story in a week. My only problem is the lack of content once you reach the WD. There is nothing to strive for other than an endless grind, could we have events or PvP in the arena? maybe a leaderboard? If we could get all this I would give the game 5 stars, and if it was possible 6

I played the original soda dungeon a few years back, after looking at the game, I thought it looked cool, and gave it a download. What a great idea that was. The game had lots of content, the ability to remove ads with coins, with not much grinding, and it was an overall great time. When I heard about a sequel I was excited, but skeptical. Was this next game going to live up to its predecessor? So I downloaded this game when it came out, and on steam, played it a bit.. and I can say, this game for sure lives up to the hype! It adds new aspects and improves upon aspects of the previous game, and maintains the non-intrusive IAP, and the ability to remove adds with coins, permanently. So if you are looking for a fun game to play and your bored, definitely give this one a download!

Soda Dungeon 2 is an app that I have been anticipating for a while now. However, as with all apps, I had my doubts. Usually remakes are simply adding one or two features and are created to steal money from users through ridiculous in app purchases. This is not the case with Soda Dungeon 2. Soda dungeon was a cult classic and Soda Dungeon takes that legacy and multiplies it 100 fold. Not only is the art, gameplay, and styles the same, but the creators managed to expand a simple concept into something that is multidimensional. If you have not played Soda Dungeon, jumping into Soda Dungeon 2 is completely fine, as the developers have taken the time to create this game for all audiences. This game is great due to its immense detail, from the pixel art to the new Ambush mechanics. Soda dungeon 2 certainty is not a disappointment, and deserves all of the hype.

I don’t usually write reviews but I have to give credit where it’s due This game is extremely fun, and very successful with its auto battling use. The difficulty progression is well balanced where you might be over powered enough to skip a 100 levels or so but losing your top tier gear to progress the story is used well to rebalance you each dimension. Most characters are each useful in a unique way ( I havnt found much use for mystic yet honestly) and gain abilities as they level up so strategy’s are always evolving. Crazy improvement over the original soda dungeon which was also a hit for me. Love the bits of dialogue, it’s not too much but it’s quippy and tight and manages to give the world some character without really slowing anything down. Not done with it, but already looking forward to future updates that add content.

Oh and the music for the kitchen fight levels. Absolutely perfect. Great job guys
