Loot Review

Pros: Re-playable, polished, fairly original
Cons: not much skill involved in playing
simple, addicting dungeon maze
Re-playability is achieved because your only goal in the game is to collect as much gold as possible without dying. Each level is a maze broken down into square tiles. Each move you flip over a tile, and see what is there. Sometimes it's gold (improving score) sometimes it's a useful item, and sometimes it's a trap. The game requires judgment to use your items to the fullest. Also, you must try to remember where the traps are because you must return to the start to complete the game.
Problem is, that's all there is to the game. Otherwise, the outcome is completely random. Still, it's enough that playing the game is very satisfying. The graphics are well done, and the graphical effects work well. The music is fine as well, although a bit repetitive. It could have used online high scores , or at least built-in high scores to beat, and RPG fans will wish there was some monster combat, leveling up and weapon/amour collecting. But overall, this game is worth playing. It makes a nice short and simple casual game, don't miss it!
