Dead-First-Search by dicksonZero
Venture deep into this underground dungeon and uncover the one treasure at the very bottom.
The dungeon is procedurally generated, so you are invited to venture in it with friends
A very simple and abstract game that you can just open on the background and come click it once in a while.
Made with create-react-app, all of the rest are hand-made by me.
Features
- RPG battle with item-based interactions
- Procedurally generated dungeon that can only go down, but not up
- Replay by keeping an item from the previous session
- Simple mobile-friendly interface
How to play
- Repeatedly Venture into a network of dungeons that remains the same for the same seed, or cooperate with friends to get there faster.
- Equip shoes to leave marks in the dungeon, or use a torch to scan for dead-ends
- When you reach a dead end, you can keep an item of your choice for next playthrough.
Adventure
- Each room will have 3 phases: Encounter, Inventory, and Exploration
- In encounter, you would need to battle a local monster using your items.
- After the encounter, you can find loot and discard items so that your hand has a maximum of 4 items.
- Choose where to go next in Exploration

Very nice game! I really like the way that you did this, and it could probably be turned into a full game for mobile. Maybe a tutorial would be nice?

That game bring back somes memories, I can only think about the old text-based RPG when i play it. I cannot say much about the graphics but the gameplay work well and the theme is respected
