Going through a door into a new room will spend these points slowly, allowing for more food, so it becomes a careful balancing act of trying to find the inn as soon as possible and monitoring the Fullness level so that more food can be consumed. Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked)Īt the beginning of each run, the player will have 100 "Fullness Points" to spend on meals, with most meals costing between 50 and 70 points. The occasional appearance of a shopkeeper, ready to trade your ill-gotten gains for new weapons and accessories, is fairly standard, but the inn – where players can buy food – is unique to Dungreed.
Somewhere in the dungeon is hidden the exit, which leads to the next level, where a boss waits to be vanquished before the next level – featuring new enemies, new items, and new ways to die – is accessible.Īlso in the dungeon are slightly more friendly additions, and this is where Dungreed starts to come into its own.
Each level of the dungeon is procedurally generated, adding an element of surprise, the player perpetually unsure of what the next room will bring – salvation, or ruin. It takes place in a dungeon, where monsters of various types will attack with various weapons. You repeat, reborn back at the start, ready to make another go of it, hoping that your luck and your know-how will serve you better this time.ĭungreed is, in many ways, a rather typical game in the roguelike genre. You die, inevitably, somewhere during your run, losing all your progress, retaining only the knowledge. You live, making your way through dungeons, finding new weapons, beating a boss or two, and learning new things about the way things work. Such is the way in roguelikes, which are experiencing somewhat of a resurgence in popularity lately, with the likes of Spelunky 2 and Hades dominating whatever remains of watercooler talk now that no one goes to the office any more. It might not be a major selling point, but this was probably the deciding factor that made me buy this game.Live, die, repeat. They feel like guns (as much as they can in a game like this, at least) which are loaded with bullets that will quickly murder enemies they are shot at. This game is a rarity among its peers in that guns in Dungreed don’t feel like gun-shaped bows that shoot neon balls instead of arrows, or like they’re loaded with wads of paper. Train the adventurer and explore deep into the dungeon! You can permanently increase your stats through training and become even stronger with various items and food found in the dungeon. When an adventurer is slain within the dungeon, his items are lost and he is sent back to town. Enter the dungeon to face the endless threats, rescue the people and rebuild the town! You must become an adventurer sent from the kingdom to solve this disaster. You are going to play as a young brave boy who is exploring different dungeons to defeat the enemies and earn score.ĭungreed is a 2D side-scrolling action game with 2D Rogue-LITE elements. A quiet and peaceful town was destroyed by a mysterious dungeon and all the townspeople were sucked into the dungeon.
Explore the dungeons full of dangers and excitements!
