About the Game

A decade and almost 1 million mobile downloads later, Skillful Pixel Dungeon comes to Steam.

Dive into a challenging roguelike RPG where every run tells a different story. Choose from four distinct classes, each offering unique active and passive abilities that open up multiple playstyles. Whether you favor brute force, precision, or strategy, no two journeys feel the same.

Descend through 25 procedural generated levels filled with danger, secrets, and loot, culminating in five formidable bosses that will test your mastery. With ever-changing dungeons and meaningful build variety, Skillful Pixel Dungeon delivers a fresh, high-stakes experience every time you play.

Pick one of 6 classes

Warrior

The warrior relies on brute strength and toughness in combat. His skills are close combat oriented leveraging melee weapons and high durability. The gladiators excel in single melee combat while berserkes are all around strong and can attack multiple enemies in one attack.

Mage

The mage relies on magic and minions to battle the forces of evil. The battle mage subclass boosts wand damage and allows using mana to absorb damage while the warlock turns his minions into even more feared beasts.

Rogue

The rogue relies on stealth and speed. Some rogues are so fast they can create copies of themselves while others excel in stealth allowing them to instantly take out sleeping enemies.

Huntress

The huntress is the weakest of all physically but her ranged skills make sure no enemy comes to close. The huntress's knowledge with the bow gives her access to skills like fletching and kneeshot. The warden is capable of shooting two arrows in one go as well as hunting animals passively for food. Snipers are capable of putting enemies to sleep and even attaching explosives to arrows.

Mercenaries

The hero is not alone on his quest. He can hire one of five mercenaries to aid him on his quest. The mercs come with basic equipment that may need replacement as the levels get tougher.

Brute

The toughest of mercenaries. A brute is slow but capable of soaking a lot of damage. He is also of capable of carrying any item in the carry slot.

Wizard

The wizard is physically weak but can summon rats in combat.

Thief

The thief is very fast and relies on stealth. His attack may poison enemies.

Archer

The archer does not have a lot of health so she attacks from distance. She has a habit of attacking kneecaps.

Archer Maiden

The elite version of archer mercs. Archer maidens are more expensive but worth the investment.
