What is Crawl?
In this pixel-art action dungeon crawler, one hero fights through randomly generated dungeons while other players control monsters and traps. Whoever kills the hero takes their place, gathering loot and experience before facing a boss controlled by the others. You can play solo against AI or locally with up to four players.
