About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a frantic race in Dungeon Rush! In this super-fast card game, you and your friends transform into brave (or not-so-brave) adventurers on a mission to explore a dungeon full of dangers and treasures. Each player controls two heroes, one for their right hand and one for their left, and the action happens in real-time! You simultaneously reveal monster cards and must be quick to 'tap' the cards your heroes will face. Won the battle? Then you get the card as loot or equipment, which will boost your heroes' abilities. These equipments are placed in a special way, splaying outwards from your hero, increasing their capabilities in melee, ranged, magic, or stealth combat. And if the monster is truly powerful, your two heroes can join forces to defeat it! The game is divided into three levels, each with monster rounds, culminating in an epic confrontation against the Dungeon Lord and a dragon. It's pure adrenaline, fun, and a bit of chaos, perfect for those who enjoy fast-paced games with a touch of dexterity.
