A quiet and peaceful town was destroyed by a mysterious dungeon and all the townspeople were sucked into the dungeon. You must become an adventurer sent from the kingdom to solve this disaster. Enter the dungeon to face the endless threats, rescue the people and rebuild the town!

Dungreed Review
This game is really, really fun. It may be one of the most fun video games I’ve played in years. To put it short, it’s a fantasy rogue-lite where a lot of the time, it chooses to be amazing, fun, or amazingly fun rather than true to the setting or genre. Sadly, the game itself is also pretty short. At almost 6 hours in, I’m one achievement away from finishing the entire game.
A lot of reviewers bring up Rogue Legacy. I personally did not like Rogue Legacy that much, although strangely, I like this game a lot, even though it’s like Rogue Legacy in many ways. For me, Dungreed’s gameplay is more fun: it’s highly varied, extremely satisfying, and with how dashing can be both offensive or defensive, it can get very fast. To be fair, I might also just like it more because it’s an easier game. Dungreed definitely isn’t that hard. It’s not so easy that you can plow through the entire game straight away, but it’s not so hard that you can’t with 5 hours of levelling and a bit of luck (EDIT: 25 hours in, maybe it was more than just a bit).
Also, this game is a rarity among its peers in that guns in Dungreed don’t feel like gun-shaped bows that shoot neon balls instead of arrows, or like they’re loaded with wads of paper. They feel like guns (as much as they can in a game like this, at least) which are loaded with bullets that will quickly murder enemies they are shot at. It might not be a major selling point, but this was probably the deciding factor that made me buy this game.
