Lead squads of heroes and monsters into the Infinite Corridor, an endless dark-fantasy dungeon. Bring your loot home, grow your village, and dive deeper. Play in Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese or Korean. • Set a formation at the Gate, then explore procedurally generated floors with up to four squads • Battles play out in real time on their own; your squads, skills and gear decide them • Adventurers in 18 base jobs and 18 hybrid jobs fight side by side with the monsters you recruit • Traps, monster nests and rival adventurer parties; bosses guard milestone floors • Renovate the village with materials and points; train the whole party at the Training Hall • Craft and upgrade gear at the Workshop; fuse monsters at the Ranch, where the right pairs become new species • Take on quests and missions at the Adventurers' Guild, and collect awards and titles • Battle other players' defense formations at Lv50 in the village Colosseum, with weekly rankings • Grow each adventurer's Growth Tree for stats and a signature skill • Ranch monsters grow stronger through Awakening and work on expeditions or as helpers; befriend more species for bestiary bonuses • Climb the Castle on the village hill: 100 castle-only monsters, 32 kinds of room gimmicks and a boss every 5 floors; recruit castle heroes and monsters with castle points • Reach B30F in the dungeon to open the Sea Temple: dive through 30 floors where the rising and falling tide changes which paths are open. Air runs low under water and refills at bubbles and air pockets. A boss every 5 floors, a raid on a giant Kraken at floor 30 and endless rounds from floor 31; pearls hire the species you defeat and raise the Tide's Blessings, and temple materials craft Sea God's Charms • The Mythic Four Lords, born from two fully awakened Legendary monsters; Limit Break Shards that raise the awakening cap of Legendary and Mythic monsters; a raid boss that changes every week; rankings for the Castle and the deepest dungeon floor • Four difficulties and endless Abyss ranks beyond Nightmare, each rank with its own anomaly and a trial lord on B100F; start a run from the deep floors you have reached; a bestiary of 480 monsters and a deepest-floor record to keep pushing Portrait or landscape on iPhone and iPad. No ads. The dungeon, the village, the Castle and the Sea Temple play offline; the Colosseum, rankings and cloud save need a connection. Free to play. Squads 3 and 4, 2x and 3x speed and more are unlocked with gems. Castle Treasures, an equipment draw, is paid with village and castle points only (gems cannot be used); the odds are shown before every draw. Gems are earned in the game, for example by reaching milestone floors for the first time and from guild awards, and can also be bought as optional in-app purchases. Gems can't be restored with "Restore Purchases", so back up with cloud save (restore code) before changing devices.
