Review: The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk

Dungeons and Dragons is a much-loved board game franchise. It is followed by young and old and inspires players to allow their imaginations to run wild. Set in fantasy lands filled with orcs, goblins, wizards, and warriors, you can create the adventure of your dreams. Rules are set in stone and only the Dungeon Master has the power to change the landscape. It’s a serious business and its player base spends hours preparing for their next outing. The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos – Chicken Edition is a satirical game that pokes fun at its D&D concept.

Developed by Artefacts Studio and published by Dear Villagers, this is an isometric dungeon-crawling adventure. With an absurd story to enjoy, and colourful characters to control, you’ll chuckle endlessly. With nine chapters filled with inside jokes, swear words, and toilet humour, there is the possibility you’ll miss the point. However, I loved its childish approach as it pokes fun at the faithful D&D community and everything in between.

The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: Amulet of Chaos - Chicken Edition is a tough but funny tactics game. A tongue-in-cheek nod to D&D players around the globe. It'll have you laughing between the bouts of frustration.

+ Wonderfully detailed environments and characters.
+ Excellent audio and acting.
+ Thorough tutorials and simple UI reduces confusion.
+ Lots of replay value.
+ Excellent value for money.

- The achievement list is too challenging.
- D&D experience isn't required.
- Lots of RNG elements undermine situations.
- Fights can be unduly tough. 

Score: 8/10

The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk is a well known IP in France, but not so well known in the rest of the world. I had the game presented to me at gamescom to find out more and to write something about it.

The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk is a parody on the likes of Dungeons & Dragons, Lord of the Rings and others. It features a band of travelers that are very inexperienced and have no names. They are only known by their class or race.

...

The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos is a new story in this series and is made in cooperation with the owner of the license. It is an RPG with turn-based combat and is fully voiced, which is good as there is a lot of banter between the party members, where they are bickering and disagreeing with each other most of the time. All the dialogues have the intention to be humorous, although I do think that some things were funnier than others. I didn't roll on the floor of laughter, but I did smile occasionally.
