The built-in level editor lets players assemble dungeons from the game’s art. Custom dungeon play is planned, while the game’s hand-built dungeons have varied objectives and a boss at the bottom.
What is Cryptr?
Cryptr is a 1–4 player co-op hack-and-slash dungeon crawler.
Choose from six classes, each with its own abilities and talent tree, then descend through hand-built dungeons in four regions. Objectives include hunting spawners, surviving combat encounters, escorting relics, and defending villages, with a boss at the bottom. Play online with up to three friends or alone with AI allies. Choose from Relaxed, Normal, Hard, and Nightmare difficulty settings. Dungeons yield randomly dropped weapons and cosmetics, which can be customized at a merchant.
