Play Deeper, Darker

One hero, a stack of floors and a princess at the bottom.

Free on iPhone in the Roam app. Android coming soon.

Princess Lyra is lost somewhere far below, and the only way to her is down. Deeper, Darker is a dungeon crawler game in the old style: one hero, a sword, a few skills and a stack of floors that get harder as you go. The first floor is the Bone Crypt, and a potion on your bar is the difference between a clean clear and a retry. The crawl runs in the free Roam app on iPhone.

How to clear a floor

Drag to move your hero.
Tap the sword button to attack.
Use the skill buttons for special moves.
Drink a potion when a fight turns against you.
Find the way down to the next floor.

Dim stone floors starting in the Bone Crypt

If you are looking for games like Diablo

Diablo set the template: a hero, a dungeon that goes down floor by floor, and fights that get tougher the deeper you go. Deeper, Darker keeps that core on a phone screen.

It is a smaller, focused game. There is one hero, a short skill bar and a clear goal at the bottom. It is a game made on Roam, not Diablo.

Tips for a dungeon crawler game on touch

Open fights with a skill, then finish with the sword. Skills hit harder, and using them first thins out a group before it reaches you.

Do not save potions forever. A potion used early in a hard fight keeps you alive to finish it, and the next floor has more to find.

For hack and slash fans

It works best for players who like hack and slash games with a simple story. It is a solo crawl, built for short sessions one floor at a time.

The rescue story gives every floor a reason. You are not grinding for loot. You are getting closer to Lyra.
