Game Overview
Ashen Dungeon is a turn-based strategy RPG where players lead an expedition to explore dungeons, gather and craft resources, and engage in tactical combat.
Combining the unpredictability of dice rolls with the strategic use of skills, each turn requires careful decision-making and an awareness of luck to determine your path of growth.
Story & Worldbuilding
In a world where hope has vanished, chaos has taken hold.
On the day the sky turned red, every mortal found their skin hardening for reasons unknown, plunging the world into confusion and fear.
Driven by terror, people began attacking one another — order collapsed, and trust turned into hatred.
In this world where no one can be trusted, you must gather those who still possess the will to survive, form an expedition, and lead them through the ashes of despair.
