About Shadowbound Depths

It is a turn-based dungeon crawler with a knight theme, and the goal is to get as deep as you can before you fall.

Every floor is randomly generated, so no layout repeats. You only see the area close to you, and fog hides whatever waits further down the corridors.

Nothing moves until you do. Each battle runs on the same turns as your walking, so you either hit an enemy standing next to you, drink a potion or spend a turn waiting and blocking.

Enemies get tougher with every floor, which is why the gear you collect on the way matters. Hovering over an item or an enemy shows its info, so you can size up a fight before you step into it.

Quick summary

  • You start at the top of a dark, randomly built dungeon.
  • On each floor you explore through the fog, fight what you meet and pick up gear.
  • Finding the stairs takes you one floor deeper, where the enemies are stronger.
  • The run goes on until the dungeon gets the better of you.

Key features

  • Combat and movement are turn-based, so you can think over every step.
  • Each floor of this dungeon adventure is generated fresh.
  • Limited vision and fog keep danger out of sight until you get close.
  • Gear and potions help you keep up with rising difficulty.

Tips & tricks

  • Hover over an enemy before you attack it to check what you are dealing with.
  • Move slowly into fogged areas, since that is where threats hide.
  • Pick up the gear you find on early floors to be ready for the tougher enemies lower down.
  • Use Spacebar to block when attacking is not your best option that turn.
