About

Dunjungle is a fast-paced roguelite where you play as an ape exploring a jungle. A mysterious and destructive force is corrupting the peaceful wildlife, and it’s up to you to navigate the dangers and fight back.

Discover ever-shifting dungeons, ancient temples, creepy crypts, and other strange locations, battling bizarre enemies and collecting a wide range of weapons, spells, and powerful relics. Each playthrough offers a unique experience!

You won’t find everyone trying to hurt you! You’ll meet characters who need help – they might be lost, stuck, or just relaxing. If you help them, they could become your friends!

(Spoiler: A lot of them are monkeys.)

Fast Game Loop

There are no checkpoints in Dunjungle. You die, you start over. Die again, try again. No hassle!

Don’t stress too much! You’ll have plenty to discover on your next playthrough. Perhaps you’ve unlocked a new weapon or spell, or maybe you rescued someone who will now help you out.

Honestly, dying in Dunjungle isn’t the worst thing. Each time I bite the dust, I actually learn something new about the world, which is awesome! So, I don’t even get too frustrated – I just use what I figured out to push a little further on my next run. It’s all about learning from your mistakes!

Key Features

  • Annoying NPCs who think they’re better than you!
