Moritz Voss has written an in-depth review of DROD: Journey to Rooted Hold on GameTunnel:

http://www.gametunnel.com/html/reviews-230.html

It's a solid review, written for the player audience and not just copying press release material. Moritz did a nice job of learning what the game is about and expressing its merits. Particularly CaravelNet, which is easy to overlook because it is not necessary to have it for gameplay. Moritz said, "CaravelNet is nothing short of a revolution when it comes to indie puzzle games, it was never easier to obtain and play additional content – you don’t even need to leave the game to install new dungeons!" Nice. That's going on the website somewhere.

Nice review! His comments are appropriate and we're taking many of them to heart in releasing DROD:TCB. My only nit-picker is that the summary box says Value: 8 but in the actual review it says Value: 9. So I'm hoping he meant 9

I endeavour to show you guys exactly what I meant when I said that the doors should look different.
