DAGURI: Gambling Apocalypse is an open world gambling simulator. You must help ‘Daguri’ pay the debts he racked up during an unintended gambling spree. Roam the world, bet on gambling mini-games, and make some money!
The game puts players in control of Daguri, a protagonist who has accumulated a massive gambling debt and must use various gambling minigames to earn money and pay it off. Players can engage in a diverse range of gambling activities, including Poker, Blackjack, Slot Machines, Loot Crates and Mystery Boxes, Virtual "Cryptocurrencies", Roulette, and Horse Racing.
The core gameplay revolves around the well-designed gambling minigames, which offer a satisfying balance of luck and strategy. In Poker and Blackjack, players must make strategic decisions based on the cards they are dealt, while Slot Machines and Roulette rely more on chance. The inclusion of Virtual "Cryptocurrencies" and Horse Racing adds an additional layer of depth, allowing players to diversify their portfolio and potentially earn bigger payouts.
Players have praised the wide variety of gambling activities available, noting that the game caters to those who have played RPGs with casinos but wished they could focus solely on the gambling aspect. One reviewer particularly enjoyed the horse races and cryptocurrency speculation, while acknowledging that some minor translation issues and a desire for more slot machine variety exist.
Interestingly, one user review specifically highlights the game's soundtrack as being exceptionally well-done, even suggesting that it surpasses the audio quality of acclaimed games like Metal Gear Solid and Devil May Cry 5. This unexpected praise for the audio quality indicates that the developers have invested significant effort into creating an immersive and enjoyable audio experience to complement the gambling-focused gameplay.
