Alchemic Dungeons DX

This game puts me in so much ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pain. Please play it.

Deep crafting mechanics, but pleasant learning curve. Strangely addictive. I have played the living ♥♥♥♥ out of this on 3ds. Still looking for the "skip turn" button on this version, but maybe it exists. Most of the controls can be edited in the settings using the z/y button and the arrow keys.

Alchemic Dungeons DX is a retro-styled roguelike dungeon crawler that places careful planning, resource management, and experimentation at the center of its design. Developed by Q-Cumber Factory and published by Flyhigh Works, the game builds on the foundation of earlier entries in the series and refines them into a more complete and accessible experience. From the very beginning, it establishes itself as a methodical, turn-based adventure that values thoughtful decision-making over fast reflexes, appealing strongly to players who enjoy classic dungeon exploration with a strategic twist. The core structure revolves around procedurally generated dungeons presented on a grid, where every movement you make advances the world around you.

good game, hard tho

One of my absolute favorite Mystery Dungeon-style games. High recommend for those who just need another hit of dopamine while Spike Chunsoft is developing their next title.

Ignore my playtime, I have over 400 hours on Nintnedo Switch, all of which were well spent. Alchemic Dungons DX is likely as close to a Delicious in Dungeon roguelike as we'll get, and a solid foundation for an amazing sequel we will never have the chance to play. This is an almost arcade-y take on the Mystery Dungeon genre with some crafting elements that let you create weapons, armor, and consumables out of materials littered throughout each floor. A large part of the appeal is being able to make the perfect arsenal to make it to the last floor. Sadly, the closest thing to this is Nito Fusion in Touhou Genso Wanderer -RELOADED-, which is a shame, because this take on the Mystery Dungeon genre needs a spiritual successor, if not a true sequel. (Prove me wrong, Q-Cumber Factory! Please develop Alchemic Dungeons 2, with more crafting recipes, an explorable overworld with towns, NPCs, and side-quests!)
