It's a turn based rogue-like!
Strategy and planning is more important than quick reflexes in this turn based game. With permanent death there are no shortcuts to reaching Northvale. Strategy, planning and a pinch of luck will get you far. And when all is lost, start over and see if you can reach the point where you died last so you can recover that sweet, sweet loot you had gained on your previous run through.
It's a card game!
There are so many cards to find. So many. There are skill cards which you use to interact with the world, attack monsters, disable traps, and more. There are also trait cards which define your character. There’s cards that equip your character with armor, weapons and magical items. All of these interact with each other in different ways so planning and strategy are your best friends.
It's a board game!
Card Dungeon is a board game in digital format. If you play board games you’ll feel right at home with Card Dungeon. Explore the numerous dungeons, slay the monsters, collect the loot.
Randomly Generated Levels!
Each time you play Card Dungeon completely random levels are generated with new treasures and layouts. All enemies are hand placed in the dungeons so each time you play through a level, you know what type of enemy you will encounter to better prepare you to hand out the beat downs.
Character Traits!
These unlockables will influence your play style. Play as an extra strong fighter OR a forgetful illusionist OR a sword wielding melee fighter OR a teleporting fire starter OR many other different combinations within one play-through! The game will always feel fresh and new as you discover new combinations of cards, magical items and your character traits.
Ah, the era of strangely full-bodied seeming hybrid approaches definitely seems to be continuing nicely.
