Our take on Guild of Dungeoneering Ultimate Edition
Dungeon crawlers often put the player in direct control of the adventurer. Here, cards shape the rooms and encounters while the hero makes their own choices, shifting the player's role toward constructing the dungeon and managing the guild between runs.
What is Guild of Dungeoneering Ultimate Edition?
Guild of Dungeoneering Ultimate Edition is a turn-based dungeon crawler where players shape the dungeon rather than direct the hero.
Cards from Guild decks place rooms, monsters, traps and loot, while the adventurer independently chooses where to go and what to fight. Between dungeon runs, players manage the Guild by building rooms that attract new adventurer classes and add cards to their decks. This edition includes content from Pirates Cove and Ice Cream Headaches, alongside additional classes, monsters, quests and loot chests. Dungeoneers can be customized with hairstyles and accessories, and victory traits provide another way to support their survival. The edition also includes revised mechanics and balancing, plus new writing, animations, music and sound effects.
