Dungeon Architect
Be the dungeon. Lay out walls, spike floors, pits, flame vents, slimes, bats and spiders, then watch waves of heroes march for your treasure. Careful: every trap that catches a hero teaches the rest of their class to walk around it.

About the game
Dungeon Architect turns the dungeon crawl inside out. You own the halls between the stairs and the treasure chest, and every wave of knights, rogues and mages takes the shortest open route to your gold. Between waves you spend coins on walls to bend that route, traps such as spikes, pits and flame vents, and monsters like slimes, bats and spiders that stand and fight. Every hero who reaches the chest carries off a pile of gold, and defeated heroes pay for your next build.
The twist is that heroes learn. When a trap hurts a hero, every later hero of the same class knows where it is, and a little badge on the trap shows who knows. Coloured dotted lines preview each class's route, so you can watch the knights' path bend away from the spikes that got them. Rotate your traps, add walls to make chokepoints, or rely on monsters that cannot be learned. Twenty-five dungeons bring rocks, bigger waves and tougher heroes.
