About This Game

A town. A stairway. A lot of missing adventurers.

Many years ago, in the middle of Desolation, someone found a stairway leading down into a huge labyrinth. Since then, adventurers from across the Seven Kingdoms have come looking for fame, fortune, and powerful artifacts.

A few return rich.  Most do not return at all.

Dungeons of Desolation Remastered brings back the Xbox Live Indie Games dungeon crawler from 2012: turn-based, grid-based, loot-heavy, and built around the dangerous idea that you can probably survive one more floor.

Descend into 25+ dungeon levels filled with procedural layouts, dozens of monsters, and more than 150 items to find, equip, drink, sell, or regret picking up. No two trips below Desolation are quite the same.

Build your adventurer through stats, gear, and over 100 skills. Fight with swords, axes, maces, daggers, shields, or magic. Focus on combat, detection, healing, protection, enchantment, or whatever build keeps you alive long enough to reach the next staircase.

Then return to town.  Talk to the townsfolk, they might help you out, for a price...

In Desolation death is not always the end, but it is never free. When you fall in the dungeon, the Wheel of Fate decides what you lose before your next attempt. Gold. Experience. Items. Progress. Maybe something worse.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Dungeons of Desolation Remastered is based on my original 2012 Xbox Live Indie Games release. The original artwork, music, sound effects, code, game design, story, systems, and overall creative direction were created by me as an individual developer.

For this remastered PC version, I have used generative AI tools as part of the development process to assist with asset upscaling/enhancement and with porting/refactoring the original XNA codebase to a modern MonoGame version. AI-assisted work is reviewed, edited, and integrated by me.

Generative AI is not used to dynamically generate gameplay, story, dialogue, items, levels, or player-facing content at runtime.
