Desktop Dungeons: Rewind

Desktop Dungeons: Rewind bestows bites of tactical roguelike action, which will quickly fester into a deep, lingering, and strategic obsession. Bargain with gods, equip your spoon and pick your battles, before retreating into the healing darkness. But beware… there are still many monsters to face!

About the Game


Desktop Dungeons: Rewind is a modern remastering of the award-winning, bite-sized, tactical dungeon crawler.

Founding a new kingdom isn’t easy: it takes cunning, manpower, and lots and lots of gold. How will you pay for the outrageously overpriced taverns and banks? Better descend into the dungeons and steal riches from the deadly inhabitants any way you can.

  • Embark on an adventure - Choose from a diverse cast of replaceable adventures. Explore bite-sized dungeons.

  • Heal by exploring - Reveal hidden terrain to regain health and mana. But plan your route carefully or you’ll have nothing left to face the final enemy.


  • Die. Rewind. And try again. - New to DDR, your death is no longer quite so inevitable. After death, you can replay a dungeon from an earlier point to try a different strategy.

  • Build your kingdom - Trade monstrous trophies for gold and upgrade your settlement to attract the most skilled adventurers.

  • Show your friends who’s boss - Daily online challenges.

Discover everything that earned Desktop Dungeons a cult following: innovative game design, hundreds of hours of content, daily online challenges, the amazing soundtrack by Danny Baranowsky and Grant Kirkhope, all the DLC, and more!



Desktop Dungeons: Rewind is similar to titles like Runestone Keeper, Into the Breach, and Dicey Dungeons.
