Enigmata: Cursed Dungeon

Traverse the dungeon, find the ring, and regain your humanity.

Enigmata: Cursed Dungeon is a 1-bit turn-based roguelike dungeon crawler inspired by Shiren the Wanderer for Playdate.

The game is currently in early access and under active development!

Defeat enemies, level up, and try to survive. Die and try again. The dungeon is always changing...

Objective

Survive! Reach the 6th floor and pick up the Ring.

Controls

• D-pad: move
• A: attack
• B: open menu
• B (hold) + D-pad: changing facing direction

Support

Enigmata: Cursed Dungeon is free while in early access (maybe forever? I'm not sure yet). If you like the game, consider donating to support it. I've been writing a book on how to make games for Playdate, so checking that out would be a big help too!
