![]() Just be sure to always prepare before dungeons which require defeating bigger, badder enemies. ![]() Battles are a little hard to start with, but even those quickly become second nature after you’ve got a few under your belt. The card mechanics and dungeon creation are simple enough once you grasp the basic concept behind it all. So far, things are looking quite fun in Guild of Dungeoneering. It appears that different character types may have different health and skills, but that wasn’t something I saw through the demo on display. You’ll definitely lose a few guild members along the way, but luckily there’s always more filtering in to meet their doom. You’ll gain access to more cards for your deck and more guild members to keep on growing stronger as quests increase in difficulty. Here you expend the money you’ve made in previous quests in order to expand it. I don’t know how many cards are meant to be available in the full game, but hopefully there’s a ton to keep all this interesting.Īfter successfully beating enemies, finding treasure, and completing the dungeon’s goal you can leave to return to the main guild. Of course, you can choose to swap for something else if a better outfit piece appears in that same dungeon. With items such as a crown or shirt your guild member will receive a benefit for the rest of the battles they fight in the dungeon while wearing it. You can choose from one of three cards (which change per battle) and offer equippable items, new cards, or gold. Once a battle is completed in Guild of Dungeoneering you’re given the option of winning some great loot. ![]() Some cards have special features which might make them unblockable, restore health, and the like. Again cards are drawn but this time cards relate to attack, defense, and related battle measures. Once a guild character runs into an enemy a battle is triggered, where you have a bit more direct control. Yep, even if that loot happens to be perched at the feet of a monster. Because your friends are so money-hungry they’ll run straight for the loot. How do you get a character to follow your wishes in Guild of Dungeoneering? Simply wait for a card depicting gold or silver coins to pop up and drop them in a nearby room. Again, you’re not directly controlling them though. As long as it links up to the doorway of an existing room then there’s potential for your guild character to walk right on through. When one appears that suits your fancy, you can drop it right down on the graph paper dungeon floor to create a brand new room. Players actually build the dungeon by drawing cards each turn. Once there, they basically can walk about where they want - but will usually follow your influence. ![]() As the guildmaster you don’t actually go out to battle yourself but send this little minion along in your stead. It starts out with you and a single member of your new guild. Just try to do your best to forget all that traditional roguelike dungeon crawlers have taught you, because you’re about to view them from a wholly different perspective in this game. In a sense, it’s like playing a roguelike where you control things instead of the game throwing out procedurally generated stuff your way. Guild of Dungeoneering is a game that’s a bit hard to define because we’ve never seen something quite like it before. ![]()
