Fun little game :D does this just go on forever or can you win somehow?

Also I would make the whole dungeon a viable target for tha drop, not just the small white square :)

Haha you can also play the Game the exact opposite way, trying to make the worst possible Dungeons, nothing preventing you lol

I liked the mood a lot, and I was very curious to see all the existing monsters and dungeons available ! It's easy to understood too. Great job!

the art is funny, quite simple but enough. I don't fully catch the challenge here, maybe i'm playing wrong, idk. But is nice to use a web to play a game.

Cool idea, very relaxing to play, though I wish there was some kind of rating score or an objective to fight against.

@ausstein if we had more time, we would have added logic to increase difficulty as you played, until you eventually lost. There was also an idea to add levels to the monsters and matching a dungeon with increasing level order would be part of the rating system.

Great game, feels a bit sad when you feel like you've played as well as you could but you still end up sending people to the wrong areas to keep the game going

Two suggestions
1. When dropping a card in a dungeon, maybe don't make it so that you need to drop it in a specific box. Make it so that you drop in the whole dungeon.
2. score

The "Excellent", "terrible" etc made it obvious, but some kind of score indication would give incentive to try and beat again. Fun game!

Cute little game, great start to a larger project, maybe even a tool for building dungeons for tabletop RPGs!

Its cute little game, but i wish there was a challenge. I like how learning to play was very intuitive, the little icons on the cards are self-explanatory.
