MTV Multiplayer writes: "I'm not sure why I stuck with "DungeonCore" on iPhone. It's extremely sloppy, with some of the poorest localization I've seen in a long time (example: "save data exist , continue ?") to ugly menus and a clumsy interface. And yet, I can't stop playing it".
AppSpy: DungeonCore removes the tedium of pointless slow battles and throws you straight in to the mix with a sword in hand and an optimistically keen main character with more than a slight case of 'death-wish'.
148apps: DungeonCore is a maddening experience that will make you want to drop your iPhone off a tall building. 148apps can’t stop playing it though.
Touch Arcade:
DungeonCore starts with your hero dropping in from the top of the screen literally only equipped with his underwear. You control his left/right movement with tilt as the level continuously scrolls upwards. If you end up too far off the top or bottom of the screen, it's game over. What makes this game much more difficult than similar titles is that the hero is constantly walking forward, and tilting merely changes which direction he walks. So you can't just stand in one place for a bit while you get your bearings, as he's always on the move. You may love this aspect of the game or hate it, but there's no doubt that it brings constant action to the game while you're playing.
...for the iPhone.
