What happens when DLC practices go too far? An indie developer makes a game that mocks the industry and its foibles, that’s what! Defeat the bad guy, save the world and get the girl! But first you’ll need to find coins to buy DLC to enable animation, sound and even pausing. Thankfully this is just satire and all the DLC is purchased with in-game coins. But consider it a cautionary tale for the future…

In The Press:
Winner of Official Xbox Magazine’s Xbox LIVE Indie Game of the Year 2011!
“…DLC Quest is colorfully arted, controls well, stays smart throughout, and doesn’t overstay its welcome.”
“Comedy in games is hard, especially when it’s making fun of something as relatively unfunny as DLC. Yet, despite this hurdle, DLC Quest makes it seem effortless.”
- Hollander Cooper, Games Radar
“With the legions of me-too Minecraft clones and boring match-three titles choking Xbox Live Indie Games, it’s easy to overlook the games that are actually worth playing on the service. Here’s one you shouldn’t miss: DLC Quest.”
- Phil Kollar, Games Informer
