Our take on Tap Dungeon
Death resets the expedition rather than ending the experience, sending the player back into randomized dungeons with new combinations of classes, skills, items, and subclasses.
What is Tap Dungeon?
Tap Dungeon is a pixel-art roguelike dungeon crawler set in a medieval kingdom threatened by goblins, orcs, and undead forces.
Players guide an adventurer through procedurally arranged environments including forests, swamps, snowy plains, deserts, and ruined cities. Combat takes place in turns and requires planning around enemy encounters, skills, items, and character builds. Five classes—Swordsman, Assassin, Mage, Alchemist, and Guardian—provide different combat approaches. Skills, equipment, and subclasses can be combined without fixed restrictions. Runs also include unpredictable events, artifacts, and concealed bosses. When a character dies, the game begins again with new build combinations and dungeon surprises.
