Dungeon Raiders
3-5 players | Ages 8+ | 20-30 minutes
Publisher: Devir, 2018
Art: Albert Monteys
In Dungeon Raiders each player takes the role of a different adventurer. You will have to join forces to survive the dungeon, but only one of you will get out with the most treasure and win the game. The dungeon is different each time you play, so its dangers like deadly traps and terrible monsters will always surprise you on your path to swag and riches. After pushing your luck to gain the most treasure, the adventurers will face the strongest and most horrendous boss monster!
I originally self-published Dungeon Raiders way back in 2011, with art by my wife Meredith! The design was in part inspired by one of my favourite games, Stefan Dorra’s For Sale - because at heart Dungeon Raiders is a simple bidding game. Still, it was lots of fun to work in a classic dungeon setting to bring out a few more thematic elements to the gameplay. Devir later published the game, this time with wonderfully quirky art by Albert Monteys. This release was a great opportunity to clean up a few of the rougher edges of the original edition, and I am really happy with the result.
