Your forge starts with one anvil and one pair of hands: yours. TAP TO EARN Tap the anvil for gold. Spend it on upgrades: hire apprentices, stoke hotter coals, and turn a village smithy into a gold machine. IDLE INCOME Apprentices keep earning gold while the game is closed, and the minions you have bound keep fighting the Mines, so you come back to XP as well: up to sixteen hours of it. DELVE THE MINES Clear the cellar under your forge and fight down through slimes, rats and slag golems, every floor on a timer. A boss waits on every fifth, and from floor 10 down it heals to full if you run out of time. Floors ending in 7 run under a weekly Aspect: one element hits hard, everything else is resisted. From floor 50 the monsters grow tough and carry traits, and a floor sometimes opens a vein of ore: tap it to dig before the floor clears. CRAFT YOUR ARSENAL Bosses and veins pay ore and embers in five grades, from Common to Legendary. Forge them into weapons and gear, equip them, and hit harder than a plain hammer ever will. Infuse a blade with an element, and reforge it on the Grand Anvil when the fight needs a different edge. The gear ladder climbs to level 250. BIND A PARTY Bind minions to fight beside you. Level them, grow each one's talent tree and signature skill, then splice any two into one of 45 hybrids that outgrows both parents. RUN THE GAUNTLET From Mines floor 50, field your party against three waves and a boss, level after level: tanks draw attacks, supports heal, skills fire on their own clocks. First clears earn Valor, which forges gear for each minion. Every 50 levels a seal bars the way, and autopilot climbs past your best while you watch. CLIMB THE TOWER When raw damage stops working, climb the Tower instead. Each floor demands one element and gives you twenty seconds, so how high you reach depends on your elemental range, not your attack number. A climb costs a key: one a day for opening the game, two more forged from rare ore, and a few more for an optional ad. Your best height banks permanent attack power. SEND EXPEDITIONS Hold floor 75 and four minions, and up to three of them can go away for 4, 8 or 12 hours. They come back with XP, boss cores and shards, and a 12-hour trip has a chance at a relic. It is the first way to level a minion that is not in your party. ASCEND AND BEGIN AGAIN Trade a run for permanent power: prestige points, a shop whose top rows never run out of ranks, heirlooms you bind for lasting bonuses, and the Crucible, which burns leftover ore and embers into Deepsteel. QUESTS TO GUIDE THE WAY A quest chain leads you from your first taps to the Rat King's hoard, with daily bounties, challenge floors and a raid along the way. The whole forge speaks nine languages.

About

Endless Dark Loot

Features
Read full description

Endless Dark Loot is a dark-fantasy card-style RPG all about the thrill of the loot. Dive into dungeon after dungeon, fight hordes of demons, and grab tons of gear and skills along the way. Every run is a fresh adventure — and every drop could flip your whole strategy on its head. Loot first, build second. Combat is just the opener. The real fun kicks in after the fight. Every piece of gear and every skill you pick up could be the missing piece of your next killer build. Crit build? Lifesteal? Cooldown? Elemental damage? It's all up to you. Mix and match skills and gear to find your perfect combo — and the next dungeon is always waiting to put it to the test. Easy to pick up, play anytime. Super simple to get into — you'll get it in seconds. But every drop comes with random stats and affixes, so you never know what surprise the next piece of gear is hiding. No grind required. Play when you want, stop when you need. Jump in anytime — and walk away with something good every single time. Key Features: Card-Style Vibe — Heroes and monsters all shown as slick collectible cards. Progress feels clear and satisfying. Endless Loot Loop — Every run brings fresh drops. Random skills and gear stats mean there's always something better around the corner. Build Your Own Way — Tons of skills and gear to mix and match. Crit, lifesteal, elemental, cooldown — your build, your rules. Easy to Learn, Hard to Quit — Simple controls, but the build combos are endless. Keeps every run feeling new. Play Forever — No finish line. Just better gear, deeper dungeons, and that one perfect build you're always one drop away from. One goal: build your ultimate loadout, then loot until you've had enough.
