Our take on Purgatory Dungeoneer
The pitch gives equal weight to town building, dungeon runs, and character stories, but its concrete details focus most on roster size and skill variety. It mentions personal histories and buried memories, while providing fewer specifics about how those stories unfold.
What is Purgatory Dungeoneer?
Purgatory Dungeoneer combines roguelite RPG runs with village building.
As mayor of a supernatural medieval settlement, recruit from a pool of over 400 former adventurers across more than 100 classes, then send parties into a psychic dungeon for resources and clues to their buried memories. More than 1,000 skills affect damage, healing, status effects, auras, and other effects. Resources can improve the village and its residents. The game emphasizes parties made up of characters with their own histories and motivations, rather than runs where everything goes perfectly. Defeat is described as a setback rather than a permanent end. The world is presented as focused, with no wasted travel time and missed content available later.
