This is the kind of game you could have found anytime on a Flash game site. Which is criticism, because most of the content is not free despite this; but it's also a compliment, because there was a lot of charm and silly things in those sites, and that holds for this game too! It's also quite like a mobile game. Which is a criticism, because mobile games often lack depth and good content; but it's also a compliment, because it has a free version you can try out anytime, and you can buy only the parts you care about if you so choose. (Mind you, it doesn't have ads or predatory behavior, else this wouldn't be a compliment at all.) With all that in mind, I have to say don't really love this game. But I do like it. It's just good enough that I enjoy revisiting it periodically as a time-killer, and that's all it needs to be. It's a prototype with just enough content in it to make it fun to spend some time on, and I can't help but respect that. Oh, but one last thing: Optional time limits on arcade mode or a lack of infinite map sizes seem silly at first, but I increasingly find appealing the concept of games including tools to help keep your time spent on them to a healthy number. So in other words, I am 100% starting to get old. But hey, the game has that thing in it, and I do like that thing. (Time limits, that is. Not entropy.)

I only want to play this just to get an achievement for Killing Floor 1 to get new weapon but ends up playing this game for hours.

Dwarfs!?... In my opinion a legendary game from my childhood. Back when the Yoggscast used to be relevant. But nowadays this game sits as a fun little piece of history. With an interesting gameplay hook and loop, the game will seriously sink its claws into you and not let go. If you ever have a couple of spare dollars its definitely worth it. I seem to always come back to this game to play rounds of 30 minutes to an hour.

This game has one of the most aggressively ugly main menu's I have ever seen in my life. Don't let that put you off; once you get past that this is a solid game with perfectly serviceable visuals & fairly fun & unique gameplay.
