A love letter to the joy of exploration and randomness. [Issue#256, p.64]
A good example of the well-balanced encounter between causality and mechanics, procedurality and systemicity.
The infinite replayability of procedurally-generated maps and adventures is limited by the encounters available, and you'll have seen them all in a couple of playthroughs. Still, in that time it's a pretty good laugh, and The Curious Expedition bestows a real sense of adventure and exploration.
Motivating and entertaining adventure game with interesting decisions, great character design and strategic diversity.
The idea for this roguelike is great, but in my case The Curious Expedition’s charm wore off too quickly. I took the first place in my fifth or sixth attempt and though every time the game managed to surprise me, I needed just three hours to do it. [12/2016, p.57]
A fun excursion into the times of 19th century’s heroic explorers unfortunately runs out of steam quite soon, and that magical charm of the unknown vanishes. [Issue#267]
Comfy, charming, deadly – but also static and boring in the long run. It plays a lot like Renowned Explorers, but is inferior in almost every aspect.
