Take control of Crusader and free the lands from the hordes of the Nethermist in this turn based strategy rogue. Card Dungeon is a completely unique and handcrafted board / card /rogue-like game experience unlike anything you have played before. Easy to pick up and play for 10 minutes, but has enough depth and strategy that you will still be playing after multiple hours.
You can only do 1 thing / turn. Choose wisely.
When the game starts you are dealt three cards. The cards are used for attacks, defense, health, magic, summoning and much more. When the player defeats a monster or opens a chest, a new card may be revealed. The user then has to decide if they want to keep their current card or switch it to the new one. Progress through the levels as far as you can. When you die, you restart at the beginning. If you make it back to where you died, you get all your cards and money back.
No IAP. No in game ads. No internet required. Buy it once and get the full game as it should be.
Features:
Full 3D. Rotate, zoom and pan across gorgeous board game tiles.
Discover and equip over 1,000 cards.
Each play through genuinely unique as you transition from playing a hard hitting warrior to a summoning wizard to a trap laying rogue, etc, etc, etc. Dozens of combinations await you!
Randomly generated levels with hand placed creatures.
No defined player classes. The cards define your class!
Discover armor and weapon cards that help define who Your Crusader is this run.
Unlock trait cards which modify how Crusader acts in game. Play a cowardly, but strong Crusader. Next time play a Crusader strong with magic, but one that keeps losing money.
Record short video clips and upload your achievements and rare card finds for your friends to see. You can even record commentary directly from inside the game (requires use of camera and microphone).
21 levels packed with 40+ monsters, each with their own unique skills for Crusader to overcome.
Unique and beautiful artwork

Pros and cons of Card Dungeon app for iPhone and iPad
Card Dungeon app good for
Great rouge like game with nice unique art. Lots of spells and attacks to use and equipment to be found. My favourite part is the monsters are more than just units with different stats but instead feel unique with different and creative powers for them. Glad I took a chance with this one.
Excellent game you should try it!!! Great ideas, writing is funny as hell and game mechanics are as tight as something tight.
Great art, sounds, music, humour and gameplay. One crash so far on my ipad 3 with ios 7. I am new to the genre and it is a good introduction. I am about to finish the third dungeon and it is not so hard. Please can you fix the camera (more zoom out and not always fixed on the crusader) and have a real saved state? If I stop playing in the middle of a dungeon, I have to restart at the beginning.
Yes, the game isnt perfect and crash (a lot), but this is the first edition of the game. Im sure that the crash will be corrected in future patch
This is a great game that I defeintley recommend its a good challenge. But it would be great if you could add a gamemode where u can play with 2 people on the same phone so 1 person could be like the dungeon master and the other person could play through it.
Very unique idea for an adventure crawler. I like the mash up of cards, rpg and board game. Super fun, very addictive. Thanks to the developers, amazing game. :-)
Of coarse there are some
bugs, but its pretty solid and can only get better.
Could you make a version for the Mac, just an idea. ;-)
Some bad moments
I dont get the point of beginning all again it gain the power of a gem and improving your caracter. You loose everything in the process.
Very long turn waiting for the monster to play slowly. I am getting tired of that.
To expensive for the gameplay.
This game is impossibly hard and what warrior doesnt a real weapon instead of some flimsy spells that stop working after a couple of battles. complete waste of two bucks and i feel completely let down w this. very sad indeed
Multiple crashes are unacceptable within minutes of first launching the game on my iPad Air and my iPhone 5S.
Test your app thoroughly on devices before releasing to the AppStore.
1 star until crashes are addressed in an update.
The game could be fun if it wasnt always crashing, i cant even finish first level
I LOVE the idea of using a deck of cards to get through a dungeon. This games LOOKS like that kind of game at first glance, but the three "cards" you see are your only options (other than movement) until you find something new. The monsters take a very long time to take their turn. I should be making interesting choices in this kind of game (or rather the kind of game this LOOKS like) NOT watching ugly "paper cut out" monsters slide around.
On the bright side the game doesnt crash on my retina mini ipad running iOS 8!
Crashing, poor save system, and a host of other bugs begs the obvious question, what happened to QA? The game has potential, but this is marred by a lifeless design that utilizes cards but then does nothing interesting with them, limiting you to 3 cards at a time, all of which will usually be attacks. There is basically no story, a generic theme, and flawed core mechanics. This APP needs an overall if it truly is expected to shine.
