Description

SCENARIO

The deeper dungeons of Mordecoom await...

For time immemorial, legend has told of a dark, deadly dungeon containing unimaginable horrors and riches beyond belief. Enough riches and magic to make you a king... or more...

Through many trials and perils, you are now standing at the entrance of a dark and mystical dungeon far from where you started. You, Zendar — a fighter, a mage, or uh, a rogue — are ready to defeat the monsters and gather the riches waiting below.

You just need to take a leak first...




GAMEPLAY

Roguecraft GB is an award-winning, retro-inspired, turn-based roguelike that’s all about simplicity and fun. Explore procedurally generated dungeons laden with mysterious potions, scary chickens, and secret rooms just waiting to be discovered.

Can you conquer the maze-like depths of the dungeons and defeat the terrifying tentacle-toting boss on the final level? You only have one life, so be careful, but if you reach the end there are wonderful rewards to be gathered!

Good luck, brave warrior!
