Title: Game of the Month: November 2021 - Dungeon Explorer II

Dungeon Explorer II

(https://i.postimg.cc/WbMLg5tn/Dungeon-Explorer-II-01.png)

Was thinking of doing a shooter since a few games have been longer sit down adventure or rpg style lately. However this is the time I play more Turbo RPG's since I have time. I haven't done a full playthrough of this in ages (broken record at this point) and I know I'm skipping the first on Hucard and it's awesome soundtrack! However, I love this sequel and this game also was one of my favorites back when it first released. The opening stuff is amazing and I love the soundtrack on this as well. I also enjoyed the voice acting bad and good. I believe (Dan told me I think) that Working Designs voice actors helped with the dub. A know a few did from hearing it, but I never researched it. Anyways, enjoy guys! Hope this one gets some play time from everyone.

Nice. I have a few weeks off in November from cons, so (broken record too) I should be able to dive deep. I just need a cheat code for unlimited life :)

This summer, a buddy and I did some two player with it but never got that far. We ended up playing the SCD version to compare...it's not a comparison.

Is there a cheat code that'll let me play as BE all the way through?  Robots reign supreme!   :pcgs:

DE2 is a great one.  Another fine choice for GotM.

Finished the game with my son over the holiday. He enjoyed it. I wasn't sure if he was going to like it since it's a little slow paced. I was the warrior and he was the wizard. It was fun giving it a play through again since it has been quite a while since I cleared it. Now to think of another game for December. Might be a shooter or something easy to quickly pick up and play.

I'm not done yet, just got the Ora stone.  I started as the fighter but am as the witch right now and am planning to switch to BE.

Is anyone else OCD and has to take every character to Mir?  Also, I gotta couple o' questions: is there a point the invisibility potion and can you do anything special in the hunter's cave other than watch them die?

No I don't think so. I was not OCD playing it since I was playing it with my son.

Sadly, I did not get a clear this month. It doesn't help that my main Duo doesn't like CD-Rs after a few hours and locks up. I think I only got to the vampire area(?)...or at least that was what the NPC's kept talking about. I kept dying a lot by getting overrun by enemies. I remember beating the first one, but I might have used the DEBDE code.
