About the Game

Dwarves & Dungeons official version is finally here! There are currently three available characters, four maps with corresponding enemies and bosses. The game innovates based on match-3 gameplay, combining elements from rogue-like games to bring a unique and fresh experience.



In Dwarves & Dungeons, everything revolves around connecting lines, whether it's gathering strength to eliminate enemies, fortifying defense to stay away from danger, or picking up coins for future planning. Achieving these tasks all requires the connecting. Characters can gain experience points and level up after long-distance connections, learning beneficial skills along the way.



The third character, the Warlock, is finally out! There are now three selectable characters, each with completely different mechanics, runes, and combat styles.



Get new runes during battles and make your own build to connect lines, eliminate enemies, and collect coins more efficiently.



Various types of random events will occur on the game board. Some may enhance your Status, while others can update runes. But act quickly; once the time is up, they disappear.



Whether victorious or not in battles, all collected coins can be used to construct the basement. Upgrade the blacksmith shop, craft scrolls in the workshop, strengthen basic Status in the cabin... Utilize the various facilities in the base to make adventures easier.
