Dungeon Twister

Card Game

 

Dungeon Twister using only cards and for two players! You lead a team of adventurers, who were teleported into the catacombs of the Arch Mage and must fight for their lives against the characters of your opponent and must manage to escape from the fiendish mechanical labyrinth. You equip your adventurers, set up the dungeon according to tutorial or chosen scenario and enter it. Players alternate their turns. In your turn you always implement the phases Acquisition of Action Points - you get three in each round - and then Use of Action Points; you can use all or some of your Action Points and can save up to three Action Points for next round. You use Action Points to fight opponents, explore rooms, collect items and move, use special abilities, avoid traps or eliminate opposing characters. You can use all Action Points for one character or split them between several characters, battles are decided by card comparison only, without dice. Item cards are placed alongside rooms so that the zone symbol of the item card points to the room. At the end of an action there can only be a maximum of three characters of one players in any given zone.

There are three tutorials with introductory scenarios, rules and possibilities are explained step by step and with increasing complexity. For a complete game you choose one of the three scenario cards provided in the game. Depending on a scenario you need different amounts of victory points to win.

Dungeon Twister Card Game offers an excellent and condensed version of the board game, a well-working card game for two, flair and allure of the original game have been retained.
