Sunrise finds you and your fellow heroes standing before the door of an ancient dungeon. Great wealth and treasure await you, but first you must find the treasure and your way back out before sunset or you will not escape the wrath of the dragon. Each hero has unique abilities, power, and courage to help him face the horrors of Dragonfire Dungeon. The greatest treasure lies in the center of the dungeon, but beware as this is also where the dragon lies sleeping.

Dungeonquest is a dungeon crawl that is brutal like no other, but you will always want to play again because you just know that next time will be better.

What Lee likes about Dungeonquest:

Who doesn’t want to a play a game where the object is to see how much of the game you can play before your character dies? “I got further into the dungeon than you before i fell down a bottomless pit, do I win?”

What Nicole likes about Dungeonquest:

I always fall in the catacombs and end up dying or get stuck in the revolving room. I might as well paint a red shirt on my character’s figure. And yet I always still have fun trying to loot the dungeon and explore it without falling in the catacombs. The updated cards are beautiful! I have fun playing no matter what the outcome is.
