Monster Sweeper
Read full descriptionHide full description
Monster Sweeper is a dungeon-crawler twist on the classic hidden-cell puzzle formula. Explore a grid-based dungeon where every tap matters. Instead of mines, the board hides monsters, artifacts, and deadly poison traps. The numbers on revealed cells show the total strength of adjacent monsters, so success depends on deduction, risk management, and smart combat choices rather than luck alone. Fight your way through the dungeon, collect loot, level up your hero, and prepare for a final boss battle. Regular enemies resolve automatically, while boss encounters add a tactical layer where you choose where to attack and where to block. Features: • A fresh blend of puzzle deduction and RPG progression • Numbers that show adjacent monster strength, not just enemy count • 10 monster tiers, from rats to infernal creatures • Artifacts that heal, boost stats, reveal danger, or expose weak enemies • Level-ups with meaningful choices between health and attack • Chain reveals and dynamic board updates as enemies are defeated • Tactical boss combat with attack and block targeting • Three difficulty levels • Achievements and leaderboards Easy mode is available for everyone. Unlock the full game to access Normal and Hard difficulties, achievements, and leaderboards.
