7 itemsAbout the Game
Directory Dungeon is a tiny dungeon crawler played right in the windows file explorer.
Explore a monster and loot filled dungeon by dragging and dropping your player folder into new rooms, equip powerful items by dropping them into your equipment folder, and defeat terrible monsters in auto-resolved combat.
Features!
Play the game in the windows file explorer and console window! Think of the file explorer as the playing pieces of the game and the console window as the dungeon master keeping track of everything.
Explore the dungeon by dragging and dropping your player into a new room, or just cutting and pasting them there.
Fight and defeat terrible monsters! And then loot their folders!
Arm and armour yourself with the loot you find throughout the dungeon, by dropping it into your equipment folder.
Enjoy a tasty cabbage, or other dungeon treats, to refresh yourself between fights!
Figure out the secret to banishing evil from the dungeon forever!
Is this doing anything weird to my PC?
Nope! Directory Dungeon only ever touches files which it has created, never looks at files outside of its install directory, and doesn't use any weird file system hacks. Check out the FAQ in the Steam Discussions for more info!
