MiniCrawl is a portrait dungeon crawler built for quick decisions and daring runs. Pick a hero, read each enemy's attack, dodge, strike, and build something powerful from the relics you find. A NEW DUNGEON EVERY DAY Take on the Daily Dungeon: the same twelve-chamber route, rewards, and encounters for every player. Your first attempt counts; practice runs let you learn the crypt. Share your room-by-room story as text or a vertical image card, and compare your depth and time on Game Center. QUICK CRAWL OR EXPEDITION The default Quick Crawl is a twelve-chamber challenge. When you want the long descent, choose Expedition and work through six worlds with branching routes, events, merchants, elites, and bosses. FORGE RELIC EVOLUTIONS Combine two matching relics to discover one of eight legendary evolutions. Fill the codex, try new pairs, and turn a careful build into a screen-clearing chain. KEEP THE MOMENT Save a short clip from the end of a run and share it with the people you'd challenge next. Recorded sound, haptics, and a torchlit crypt give every hit weight. Four heroes offer different ways to survive. The optional Premium Pass is a single purchase that removes ads and provides unlimited torchlight. No subscription.
