What is Dungeons of Blood and Dream?

A first-person dungeon crawler set in a mind prison, where a wizard tries to escape after losing much of his power. You fight creatures with blades and spells, avoid traps, and search for treasure and secrets in procedurally generated dungeons. Cursed ring powers depend on which finger wears them, potion effects change between runs, and some unlocks carry over.

For you if...

+you enjoy discovering secrets without relying on guides
+you want permanent unlocks across challenging dungeon runs
+you like surreal, grimy first-person fantasy settings

Not for you if...

−you prefer fixed dungeons to procedurally generated runs
−you want forgiving fights instead of punishing combat
−you want clear directions rather than obscure puzzles
