Dungeon Raid player guide

Your first useful run

The tutorial starts on a face-down card board. Every card you turn costs food. When food reaches zero, later turns remove health and also build stress; filling the stress bar applies a random negative stat.

1. Reveal one card at a time and watch the food bar before opening another unknown card.
2. Add a useful card to your hand before using it. Food cards refill food, while armor absorbs incoming damage.
3. Treat every action as a combat turn when an enemy is visible: after you act, visible enemies attack.
4. Use weapons deliberately because each one has a limited number of durability points before it breaks.
5. Find both a door and its key to leave the floor; keep enough food, health, and usable damage for the next reveal.

• Card upgrades can lower the difficulty of a run.
