Ever since the dawn of time monsters have taken hard earned dwarven treasure, and finally the dwarves have had enough. You are chosen are their champion, and are sent into the dungeons to recover your treasure, problem is.... No one taught you how to fight the monsters, so your best option is to sneak by, and hope they don't catch you.
Cryptic Escape is a difficult rougelike dungeon explore where your goal is to recover as much treasure as possible, and find your way out, without any of the monsters catching you. Lucky for you, you can buy upgrades to help your chances, and find special potions in the dungeon itself to make your journey easier.
Navigate your way through the dungeon, featuring procedurally generated unique and different floors, each harder, with different monsters who are determined to not let you out, and not let your recover any treasure. But beware, if you are careful enough, and silent enough you just might just get by unnoticed.
Make yourself better using the treasure you retriieved in order to become stronger, faster, more durable, and harder for the monsters to notice & catch. Making it easier to get more treasure! Which options will you choose? Stealth, hoping for less monsters to sense you? Or maybe Scavanger, hoping to find some more treasure?
But you better watch out! Remember the monsters are searching for you, they don't want their treasures taken. You better not let the any of them catch and stop you from getting back what's rightfully yours! They will try to make your journey more difficult using their different traps and skills, so good luck avoiding them.
