What is Shattered Pixel Dungeon?

A 2D turn-based roguelike RPG set in a procedurally generated dungeon. Each run sends one of six heroes through changing rooms to fight enemies, avoid traps, collect or craft items, and develop talents and a subclass before death ends the attempt.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy difficult turn-based runs where knowledge matters
  • +you like experimenting with heroes, subclasses, and randomized equipment
  • +you want a single-player roguelike built for repeated attempts

Not for you if...

  • −you dislike losing an entire run when your hero dies
  • −you want straightforward systems with little random variation
  • −you prefer forgiving games that require little planning
