Dungeon Dashers is a fast-paced turn-based dungeon crawler game you play with your friends or in singleplayer. Hand-crafted dungeon experiences allow for unique adventures with traps and interesting monster configurations. Retro pixel art sprites, original chiptune soundtrack, and optional CRT-emulation increase nostalgia.

Accumulate wealth by smashing boxes full of gold, slaying monsters, and looting glowing chests. Use your gold to buy consumables to boost your abilities or buy cosmetic items such as hats. Unlock new swords, bows, staffs, spells and other equipment by completing challenges and quests.

Kill monsters to collect their crafting materials, explore difficult to reach areas and claim valuable resources. Craft ornaments for your heroes to wear, and most importantly, hats!

Dungeon Dashers takes place over a range of different landscapes and terrain. Some levels feature puzzle elements where your heroes must defuse lever-driven mechanical traps, other levels entail large scale battles where death is more likely than you think.

Will you use your agility to sneak past malicious traps or will you use those same traps on your enemies, pulling a lever at the right moment and plunging them into a pit of spikes?

Aim to get a perfect score in every quest by successfully completing additional objectives such as surviving with all of your party members or finishing the quest in a certain number of turns. Beating these challenges with friends adds hours and hours of replayability.

Play with your friends online and explore dungeons together or enjoy the game in singleplayer, controlling a party of four characters.

With 4-8 distinct classes, single player and up to four player online co-op, hand-made dungeons and turn-based everything, we’re gushing everywhere about this one.

Let me say right out that the mechanics are classic DnD, simplified and streamlined so you don’t have to listen to a dungeon master drawling out the corner of his mouth... Thankfully, the interface for guiding characters is easy to understand, the GUI is helpful and uncluttered, and the framerate smooth thus far, so technically it should hold up well upon release.

The turn-based dungeon crawler looks like a SNES Dungeons & Dragons and seems to play like one too. The pixel art accompanied by chiptune beats makes the nostalgia vibe rise high in this one.
