Undoubtedly the most remarkable thing of the title is its gameplay system, based in dungeons with interchangeable parts, which will make us think fast to avoid being swallowed by the ever-changing levels. This is a very accountable title in the already large Nintendo DS portfolio.
Away: Shuffle Dungeon has a lot of charm and a great central gameplay system, but the gameplay is too shallow and simple to ever really draw the player in. It’s a cute, simple dungeon crawler with a great gimmick, but unfortunately it never really becomes anything more.
Nicely done and with an interesting premise, Away Shuffle Dungeon is a good Action RPG with a nice soundtrack and very colorful graphic style. The gameplay is also original, but doesn't take advantage of all its potential. Anyway, is a good game that deserves an opportunity.
RPG veterans who want a real challenge for their reflexes should check it out. [Dec 2008, p.102]
Away has an interesting premise, nice visuals, great audio, and an original take on an established genre. That original take isn't strong enough to carry the player throughout the entire game, though, and eventually the gimmick wears thin.
It's all a shame because the central idea of a constantly transforming dungeon is a good one. The actual game that's been constructed around it though is nowhere near good enough.
