Dungeon Wilds is a cooperative card game that uses a standard 52 card deck of playing cards and six-sided dice loosly based on Rummy. Additionally, it features elements of classic rogue-lite games like dungeon exploration and story-telling through death and repeated play-throughs.
The core of the game is a simple trick-taking mechanic that has you scoring points in order to reveal cards hidden in the Dungeon. Once those cards are revealed you’ll be looking for opportunities to play those cards so that you may clear the floor and move onto more deadly parts of the dungeon.
Throughout all of this you’ll have opportunities to purchase items from a terrifying shop keeper in hopes that you may continue to survive the Dungeon Wilds.
