Guild of Dungeoneering sees players guide their hero’s dungeon run with the careful placement of rooms and monster cards to steal the loot and escape with their lives… but it doesn't always work out as planned!
Guild of Dungeoneering is a turn-based dungeon crawler with a twist: instead of controlling the hero you build the dungeon around him. Using cards drawn from your Guild decks, you lay down rooms, monsters, traps and of course loot! Meanwhile your hero is making his own decisions on where to go and what to fight. But will he be strong enough to take on the dungeon's overlord?
In between dungeon runs you manage your Guild, building new rooms to attract new classes of adventurer and to expand your decks of cards with more powerful items and events.
In Trophy Trials you start a new run by choosing which region you want to play in and then pick from one of two possible Dungeoneers, Blessings, Loot upgrades and, in a special twist, Fates. Then you must take your chosen dungeoneer, with your selected upgrades (and downgrades), to battle an ever-more-difficult series of boss fights. Start each boss fight at level one and level up by finding the right equipment to emerge victorious.
Every time questing dungeoneers beat a boss you gain a trophy towards your high score, and that’s where the game deviously alters the rules to make things more difficult. At this time you must make a choice, take on another boss with these new rules, or head home with your current haul of trophies. If you push your luck and die in the next dungeon you score NOTHING! If you make it out with your trophies then you enter the halls of glory and your name may be written on the leaderboards! It's all about knowing when to quit!
The Trophy Trials update is also coming along with new features like customizing your dungeoneer’s appearance before you go adventuring or watch videos of fellow dungeoneers successfully navigating a dungeon run (in beta). Trophy Trial lets you experience some of the loot and monsters from the Pirates Cove and Ice Cream Headache expansions.
