While we have poured our hearts into bringing this game to life, we are aware of a few pesky bugs that have managed to creep in. Please note that the button controls can unexpectedly interact with nearby items, such as chests. If chests are clicked multiple times, they may rotate backwards until the clicking ceases.

Originally conceived for the dungeon crawler game jam 2023, Draught Of The Dungeon surpassed our expectations, compelling us to expand upon its initial concept and invest more time in its development. We hope you enjoy this captivating blend of brain-teasing puzzles, heart-pounding adventure, and alchemical wonders that await you in the depths of the dungeon.

Get ready to test your mettle, unravel the mysteries of the cult, and prove yourself a worthy alchemist. Can you survive the dungeon?

Tips:

You can press space to skip the intro cards.

All chest give unlimited potions, use that to your advantage.

The mini map is more useful than it might seem at first glance!

If you swim through the oil in level three you will be prone to fire damage until you swim in either water or poison to wash it off, be careful!
