Our take on Dwarves & Dungeons

Match-3 players may bounce off when a run requires line connections for several systems at once: combat strength, defense, coins, and rune-based planning. The timer on random board events adds another pressure point before the basement upgrades can shape later adventures.

What is Dwarves & Dungeons?

Dwarves & Dungeons combines match-3 board movement with roguelike runs.

Players connect lines to gather strength, defend against danger, collect coins, and fight monsters. Battles provide runes for character builds, while long connections grant experience, levels, and skills. The game includes three selectable characters with different mechanics and combat styles, four maps with corresponding enemies and bosses, and random board events that can alter statuses or runes before their timers expire. Coins remain available after battles and can fund upgrades in a basement containing facilities such as a blacksmith, workshop, and cabin. The game includes three characters, including the Warlock, and uses weapons, bosses, and dungeon challenges within its runs.
