Best game of the week

Dungeon and Gravestone

When it comes to roguelike dungeon crawlers, there are a plethora on the Play Store, though this is often a genre lacking polish as it tends to lean towards the casual side of gaming, at least on mobile. This is why I was happy to see Dungeon and Gravestone make its way from PC to Android. On PC, it hasn’t seen much attention, probably because it’s a little too casual for the platform, but on mobile, well, it’s a completely different story.

Dungeon and Gravestone lends itself well to bite-sized sessions, as you will die often, but this is a primary mechanic of a roguelike, so not only is it expected, it’s the perfect setup for on-the-go play. Plus, the graphics are simple but stylish, thanks to a blur effect that makes everything look tilt-shifted. So as far as mobile roguelikes go, Dungeon and Gravestone is a great new contender on mobile this week, so ensure you don’t miss out.
