About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to face the Dragonfire Dungeon in DungeonQuest (Third Edition)! If you enjoy the thrill of exploring dungeons full of danger and treasure, this reimagining of the classic will hook you. Here, you and up to three friends (or brave it solo!) take on the roles of daring heroes in search of unimaginable riches guarded by the fearsome Dragonlord Kalladra. At each dawn, the dungeon doors open to welcome new adventurers, but beware: when the sun sets, they close, sealing the fate of those left behind. Tension is guaranteed, as the dungeon itself is your opponent – no one knows what lurks in each corridor, making every game a unique experience with a modular board that changes with each playthrough. Use your hero's unique abilities to overcome challenges, but be aware that player elimination is a real possibility. Luck and strategy blend in confrontations reminiscent of good old rock-paper-scissors. Surviving and exiting with the most treasure is the goal, but eternal glory awaits those who succeed! If you enjoy adventure games with a touch of brutality and the excitement of discovery, DungeonQuest is a sure bet.
