The Climbing of Sir Doche is an action game by independent game developer, DyeGames. It follows a knight named Sir Doche as he ventures into the Dungeon of Nothingness to face the greatest dangers of Nothingness. As the title suggests, you will face a specific challenge in each level.  Each floor has you going head-to-head with a creature with a particular skill. It’s up to you to find out and use it against them.

Climb your way to victory! 

The Climbing of Sir Doche emphasizes the plot as it includes the solutions to the clues and challenges in the game. The story follows Sir Doche - a human who ends up in the world of monsters. In this world, monsters were once equal to humans, but there was a battle between them. This sent the creatures to the dungeons where they are held captive. 

You will encounter some creatures along the way to Nothingness. There are three ways in which you can deal with all of them: you can end their lives, make them all live, or pick who lives and who dies. Both three forms of encounters will open the gate to the surface, but how it will be achieved and who will access it will be different from each other. 

Although there are predators you can choose to show mercy on, there are those who would not fail to take yours. A match with an opponent will immediately place you in a combat mode. A tiny heart appears on the screen as it reflects the soul. At the end of the battle, you can opt to bring an end to their lives or let them survive. Notice that saving their life doesn't guarantee you're friends right away. 

Challenging yet captivating game 

The Climbing of Sir Doche bundles a complicated plot in a simple, semi-turn based game. This helps you to immerse yourself in the plot without losing the gameplay experience. Adding several endings further improves the atmosphere as you can never predict how the character will end up or if the end will be in your advantage. Overall, it is ideal for both new players and seasoned gamers who want to play difficult yet easy-to-follow games.
