About the Game

Ogre Dungeon is a retro 2D Rogue-like for PC & Android designed to be simple, classic, and straight-forward for pick-up-and-play.

Choose your character and brave the dangers of dark and forgotten places in search of the ultimate treasure. Level up and increase your power as you descend each level of the increasingly hostile dungeon, then escape alive to claim your fortune and earn your character's name. The consequences of failure are irredeemable.

Stay alive. Your adventure only ends with victory or defeat. All saved progress is wiped upon character death. It isn't all doom an gloom, though. Your next character will stand to inherit your previous character's gold. 

When you beat the game, your behavior during the run is analyzed, and your character shall earn their name--etched into the high scores. As development continues, these scores will eventually be hosted online for all to see, so adventurers may boast of their character's deeds!
(but the game itself is single player, no internet connection required)

Currently, dungeon floors use an eclectic mix of hand crafting, semi-randomization, and procedural generation to help create unique experiences for each new game. However, this game is designed to be linear and is more focused towards pick-up-and-play, start to finish, rather than sandbox game play. This won't be a game you play forever. It is designed to be an experience that begins and ends, for the player's enjoyment, and then frees the player to move on. In this sense, both the game play and style are very retro. Almost arcade-like.
