ENTER THE DUNGEON. SURVIVE THE CARDS. Scoundrel is a solo rogue dungeon-crawling card game where every decision could be your last. Navigate through deadly rooms of cards, battle fearsome monsters, and manage dwindling resources to survive until the end. HOW TO PLAY Each turn presents you with four cards from the dungeon deck: monsters to fight, weapons to wield, and potions to heal. You must choose three cards to resolve in any order you wish, but choose wisely—the fourth card carries over to the next room. Will you fight that powerful monster with your weapon, knowing it will degrade? Or fight barehanded to preserve your blade for bigger threats? Every choice has consequences. STRATEGIC DEPTH - Weapon Degradation: Your weapons don't last forever. Each time you slay a monster with your weapon, it becomes weaker and can only fight lesser foes. Manage your arsenal carefully. - Tactical Card Selection: Pick which three cards to resolve and in what order. The card you leave behind becomes your first challenge in the next room. - Risk vs. Reward: Only the first potion you swallow in a room has an effect. Take more potions and they are wasted. - Flee or Fight: Face overwhelming odds? Flee the room—but you can't run twice in a row, and those cards will come back to haunt you. FEATURES - 44 Unique Cards: Beautiful original dark fantasy artwork brings monsters, weapons, and potions to life - Amazing Sound Effects: rousing cinematic music and swashbuckling sounds enhance gameplay - Fast-Paced Gameplay: Complete runs in 5-10 minutes—perfect for quick gaming sessions - High Score Challenge: Track your best scores and compete against yourself - Strategic Depth: Easy to learn, challenging to master - No IAP or Ads: Premium one-time download, pure gameplay THE CHALLENGE Start with 20 health and no weapon. Navigate through the entire dungeon deck without dying. Sounds simple? Every card is a test. Every room is a puzzle. Can you survive them all? Your score is calculated by the monsters you've slain and the health you have remaining. Beat your personal best. Master the dungeon. Download Scoundrel and face the challenge today.
