- A core of classic roguelike gameplay. Descend the dungeon, collect items and kill monsters and bosses.
- Kill enemies or explore the dungeon to gain floor progress. Filling up the progress meter spawns a portal to the next floor.
- 37 pieces of equipment for 13 equipment slots with tooltips and stat comparisons.
- 11 Spells with multiple combo chains, gained through leveling and new equipment.
- Discover campfires in the dungeon to cook higher quality foods and upgrade stats.
- 3 dungeon tile sets. Forest, Desert and Tundra.
- A graveyard which grows as the number of your deaths do.
Your journey begins beside a quiet river. Adventurers like yourself lay motionless, strewn across its shore. Without a horse and food you only have one way forward, into the dungeon to see what has waylaid your friends.
