## What is Dungeon of the Endless?

Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee is the award-winning Rogue-Like Dungeon-Defense game, in which you and your team of heroes must protect the generator of your crashed ship while exploring an ever-expanding dungeon, all while facing waves of monsters and special events as you try to find your way out. The Apogee Edition of Dungeon Of The Endless includes the full game and five DLCs.

WHAT’S BEHIND THE DOOR?

A few hundred condemned criminals were being shipped to the Auriga system on board the prison hulk “Success”. While this was presented as a chance to earn back their place in society by working hard for the common good, they understood that in fact they would be slave labour, sent to colonize an unexplored planet. All they knew about Auriga Prime was what the probes told them: it had water, temperate zones, plant life, and plenty of metals in the crust.

In fact, the planet Auriga once hosted a major settlement of the galaxy-travelling ancestors known as the Endless. In addition, the planet was still orbited by a functioning (and well cloaked) defensive system, which sprang eagerly to life upon the arrival of the Success. Within a few minutes, the ship was nothing but a few large chunks of metal falling toward the planet.

Luckily, every set of holding cells also functioned as an escape pod, so the ship let itself disintegrate and the surviving prisoners fell bruised but (temporarily) alive and (momentarily) safe to the planet below. Safe, that is, until they realized that they had crashed through some sort of Endless facility, all the way down to a sub-basement so deep and ancient it might as well be called a dungeon…

### 2/5 — Great game, horrible UI

*2026-07-24, version 1.03*

I would rate this game five stars but the UI issues are game-breaking. Some text boxes overlap others so you can’t see important info. I clicked a science upgrade node and I cannot see the science cost for the first upgrade, I have to click until I have sufficient science for the upgrade to start… ridiculous. 

What boggles my mind is that some comments like mine are from 1-2 years ago, the developer answered saying « I’ve sent your comment to the team » but there still is no fix. This is bad.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-03, version 1.03*

One of my all time favorites. Took me a while to get use to the controls on the iPhone but I still love it. Always one more door and then one more floor and then it’s 3 hrs later.

### 5/5 — Für Leute die Strategie lieben

*2026-01-31*

Hat unglaublich viel Spaß gemacht das Spiel durchzuspielen und es macht immerwieder Bock mal alle paar Monate mal wieder ein zwei Runden zu spielen. Für mich 5/5 verdient.

### 5/5 — Miss this game

*2026-01-29, version 1.03*

I’ve always had a soft spot for this game and

### 5/5 — Original, fun and difficult

*2025-12-23, version 1.03*

This game is difficult even on easy mode. One mistake and everything goes to $&@!, so don’t make mistakes, plan carefully and take calculated risks. Super fun!

### 2/5 — No reset button

*2025-11-15, version 1.03*

Why does a reset button not exist?. Want to reset save

### 1/5 — game is bad

*2025-11-05, version 1.3.17_epic*

they didnt refund my game so Im talking about it now the game is badly ported and it has not been updated the frame rate is locked and very low and the options are very limited the option menu is basically useless it only has audio settings the game is also way darker than the pc version and the menus are made in a way that text goes under the icons and the font is so tiny it cannot be read

### 2/5 — Ui is a mess

*2025-08-02, version 1.03*

Also txt too small

### 5/5 — Saw a 1 star review

*2025-07-12, version 1.03*

Absolute nonsense. This is a high quality game with strategic and tactical depth. The Endless series is endlessly enjoyable. This game is no different. Ignore the weak willed negative comments. They have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about. 

Thank you for this game. It’s extremely fun and challenging. For a true gamer like myself, I can get hundreds of hours of enjoyment. I think I have 50 hours or so in the game, and I’ve only gotten to the end ONCE. A true sign of quality and care. A challenge is a thinking mans friend. The troglodytes who hate this game should stick to Fortnite. Leave the real games to us. 

Thanks for making an awesome game.

### 3/5 — Great roguelike harmed by porting issues

*2025-07-01, version 1.03*

The game is generally good but a ton of the game’s menus have text that goes outside the menu box or the menu buttons and text literally cover other parts of the UI which makes doing things like researching new items difficult. All stuff that should have easily been caught if tested?
