Escape Deep Dungeon: Avoid Starvation in Dungeon Hiker

Ever since the days of Ultima Underworld, the humble dungeon has evolved from a typical setting for tabletop role-playing games into a vast, sprawling, cavernous world brimming with mystery and adventure. It's no wonder that we continue to see releases like the upcoming Dungeon Hiker, which promises to let players relive that immersive experience.

The concept behind Dungeon Hiker is straightforward yet compelling: you find yourself trapped inside a mysterious dungeon and must navigate your way out. Between you and freedom lie tunnels, monsters, traps, and various other obstacles that you must overcome. As you progress, you'll uncover branching paths and multiple endings, delving into a deep (pun intended) and engaging story.

However, it's not just the physical challenges you need to worry about. In addition to managing your HP, you'll also need to keep track of and replenish your hunger, thirst, and fatigue levels. Trapped deep underground, resources like food are scarce, adding a layer of survival strategy to the game.

Beyond these survival elements, Dungeon Hiker operates as you'd expect from a first-person dungeon crawler. The game incorporates a card battler format, requiring you to collect materials to craft new skill cards and equipment essential for battling the monsters lurking within the dungeon.

Developed by Nekosuko, Dungeon Hiker boasts an intriguing premise. While Nekosuko's past projects have often been on the more budget-friendly side, there's hope that with the game's release scheduled for July 20th, they will deliver a polished experience that fully leverages this captivating setting and concept.
