Dungeon Scoundrel is a tactical card game designed for quick, strategic sessions. Played in a portrait orientation, the game challenges you to survive a dungeon run using a fixed deck of 55 cards. It emphasizes smart decision-making over pure luck, requiring you to manage resources carefully to escape alive.
The gameplay revolves around a simple yet deep mechanic: each room presents four cards. You must defeat monsters, collect loot like weapons and potions, and choose exactly one card to leave behind to advance to the next room. Every choice has consequences, and managing your health and equipment is key to survival. The game features seven unlockable hero classes, each with unique playstyles and abilities, ranging from the stealthy Rogue to the powerful Wizard.
