About This Game

It was here before you. It will be here after.

The Dungeon Persists is a top-down, pixel-art roguelike dungeon crawler.

Choose a hero, descend through an endless run of procedurally generated floors,

and see how deep you can go before the dungeon claims you. Every run is

different, but what you learn and unlock carries forward.

Pick your hero

Six classes, Fighter, Barbarian, Wizard, Ranger, Rogue and Paladin, each

with distinct stats, attack feel, a signature mechanic and class-specific

weapons.

Descend forever

Endless procedural floors arranged into themed bands, with traps, chests, safe

rooms and telegraphed boss encounters. Face 24 enemy types including elites,

champions and four bosses.

Build your run

A large pool of weapon upgrades, 16 relics (each with a tier-II upgrade),

gear with enchantments, and consumables let you assemble a different build every

time.

Get stronger between runs

Meta-progression spends runes on persistent upgrades, an Ascension difficulty

ladder for endgame challenge, and 51 achievements to chase.

Four base difficulty levels : Easy, Normal, Hard and Nightmare.
