"Escape Deep Dungeon in Dungeon Hiker Without Starving"

Dungeon Hiker is an upcoming 3D dungeon crawler that aims to capture the essence of classic first-person exploratory adventures. Drawing inspiration from timeless titles like Ultima Underworld, the game reimagines the dungeon as a vast, mysterious labyrinth filled with danger, discovery, and immersive storytelling.

At its core, Dungeon Hiker presents a simple yet compelling premise: you awaken trapped inside a sprawling underground dungeon and must fight your way out. Along the way, you'll encounter twisting corridors, deadly traps, fearsome monsters, and branching paths that lead to multiple endings. Each decision and route you take shapes your journey through a deep and engaging narrative.

What sets Dungeon Hiker apart is its survival mechanics. In addition to managing your health, you must also keep track of essential needs like hunger, thirst, and fatigue. Resources are scarce in the depths of the dungeon, making every meal and sip of water a strategic choice rather than just a convenience.

Gameplay Mechanics – A Unique Card-Based Combat System

Beyond exploration and survival, Dungeon Hiker features a distinctive card-based combat system. As you traverse the dungeon, you’ll gather materials to craft new skill cards and equipment, empowering you to face increasingly difficult enemies and challenges ahead. This blend of tactical card play and real-time dungeon crawling creates a fresh gameplay dynamic within the genre.

Developed by Nekosuko, known for their more budget-friendly titles, Dungeon Hiker is set to launch on July 20th. While the developer's past releases may not have broken any production budgets, this title appears to be a step forward—offering a promising mix of old-school charm and modern design.
