What is Tunnel Escape?

In this 2D roguelite RPG, you guide Beatrice through an underground lab as she searches for a vaccine during a zombie outbreak. Each run involves exploring stages, finding and crafting items, and using guns, throwables, and skills in turn-based fights. Every stage ends with a boss.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy turn-based fights with varied weapons and skills
  • +you like roguelite runs with random events and loot
  • +you appreciate hand-drawn animation and varied character sprites

Not for you if...

  • you prefer real-time combat to turn-based battles
  • you want predictable levels rather than runs with random events
  • you dislike grinding to improve your character

What players say

79% of 426 reviews are positive

Players praise the tactical combat, art, and music; some also like how adult content from a separate patch ties into combat. They complain about late-game grinding and having to download that patch externally. Some report frame-rate drops, while older reviews describe crashes.
