Dungeon Overseer

Dungeon Overseer is a colony simulator focused on building a dungeon and managing its resources. You design and expand a lair, recruit and develop minions, and build up a resource supply to sustain your army. You can send minions on raids, craft rare resources, research upgrades and defend your base from invading elemental golems.

Build your lair

A multi-tier tile system lets you shape your dungeon layout. You can construct 10 room types, upgrade each type four times for special bonuses at every tier, and buy add-ons that provide further bonuses and unlock features. Some minions spend time in particular rooms, so your layout can also help with defense.

Recruit and develop minions

Constructing lair, library and temple rooms unlocks new minions, each with a specific benefit and purpose. You can level up recruits to improve their power and the rewards they earn from raiding. Higher-tier minions can collect rarer resources while on raids.

Quests and raids

More than 50 initial quests guide you through building your dungeon and recruiting minions, while providing rewards. As your dungeon advances, you unlock further quests.

Minions gain experience in your base, but earn more experience on raids. Through the Overseer's Roster, you can send them out into the world; the Overseer's Raid screen lets you monitor their progress, level them up, revive them or order them home. Each minion collects experience, resources and a tier-specific rare resource while raiding.

Defend your base

Elemental golems that protect the mountain attack your dungeon in response to its construction. You recruit minions to fight the invasions and arrange your base to protect your troops. Successful defenses earn rewards, while failing costs resources.

Research and crafting

Your library produces research points. Research unlocks room add-ons, room upgrades and improvements to minion power, as well as the best minions and resources.

Minions produce base resources throughout your dungeon. In the foundry, you use these resources to craft rare ingots needed for the toughest minions and highest-tier room construction. Foundry upgrades increase the rate of rare-resource production and unlock higher tiers of resources for your base and minions.
