Our take on Runestone Keeper
Randomized dungeon elements and permanent death make each attempt subject to changing conditions, but they reduce continuity between attempts. Players seeking a fixed adventure with persistent progress may find that structure restrictive.
What is Runestone Keeper?
Runestone Keeper is a roguelike dungeon crawler combining classic role-playing elements with turn-based combat strategy.
Dungeon elements are generated differently each time, while equipment can gain random prefixes and suffixes for collecting and combining gear. Monster groups may have complementary abilities, creating varied combat situations. Items, traps, devices, and events offer choices during difficult moments. Players develop their hero’s attributes, sacrifice to receive a God’s blessing, and may later betray that God. The game includes multiple modes and a global ranking system. Its dungeon adventures feature heroes, monsters, magic, skills, merchants, shrines, altars, and permanent death.
