Cards and Dungeons

Cards and Dungeons is a roguelike dungeon crawler that combines strategic card play with fast-paced action. You choose a hero, equip a deck and descend through changing dungeons filled with monsters, traps and bosses. Each run tests your survival, strategy and risk management.

Choose your hero

You start with one of several heroes, each with a distinct ability and playstyle. You can unlock more characters as you progress, adding new ways to approach the dungeon.

Use cards in battle

Every hero has a basic attack, while assigned cards provide additional attacks and tactical abilities. You can equip up to three cards per run and spend mana to use them. Playing a card advances a hidden counter; when it triggers, a random punishment strikes, balancing the cards’ immediate power with a longer-term risk.

Explore the dungeons

Procedurally generated floors bring new challenges on each run. You encounter dangerous biomes, shifting layouts, traps and enemies that grow deadlier the deeper you go. Powerful bosses guard the way forward.

Upgrade between runs

During a run, you collect gold to buy upgrades, mana to power your abilities and experience gems to level up your heroes. Between runs, you can add cards to your arsenal, improve your characters and unlock permanent upgrades to help you progress further.

Build for replayability

Multiple heroes, hundreds of card combinations, random events, punishing drawbacks and procedurally generated dungeons make runs vary. You can refine your builds, test different strategies and challenge higher difficulties.
