What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The Red Prison is in active development. The current version is playable and features most early game content along with some mid-game content and the beginnings of late-game play. The game is in Early Access on Steam because to date it's been updated on a weekly basis and play-testing and feedback is very important to the ongoing development of the Red Prison.

The goal for development of The Red Prison is to create a procedurally generated Dungeons & Dragons adventure with all of the features of a traditional roguelike which can be played over and over again.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Development is expected to continue over a number of years and it is hoped that the main aspects of the game's content will be complete within 12-18 months before the game leaves Early Access.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“It is expected that over time the focus of development will be to create a more diverse dungeon to explore, implement powerful character abilities, more spells and magic items and a full bestiary of dangerous monsters to fight.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Red Prison is fully playable and is almost feature complete for early-game characters. Ongoing development will continue to add more and more features. All of the features listed in the About This section of the store page are fully implemented and ready to play.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The Red Prison will always be available to download for free.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Bug reports and suggestions are always welcome. Because The Red Prison will be in development for some time, there is the real chance to shape the future of the game.

The best way to provide feedback for the Steam version of the game is to do that on the Steam Discussion board.”

About This Game

The Red Prison is a roguelike based on the OGL-content of the SRD for 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons. The Basic Rules is (largely) a stripped back version of those rules and this game takes a similar approach. The game mostly follows those rules faithfully and they are included with the download. Development is still in its early stages and at this stage any available builds are playable but unstable.

The game features four classes (fighter, rogue, wizard and cleric) and four base races with subraces (human, mountain dwarf, hill dwarf, wood elf, high elf, lightfoot halfling and stoutheart halfling). You can fully customise all aspects of your character and recruit magic users, fighters, thugs and priests as henchmen to support you as you explore the depths of the Red Prison. There is an infinite procedurally generated dungeon filled with hordes of monsters to encounter in this traditional roguelike.
