About The Game
Adventure calls... but you don't always have time to spend hours optimizing your character sheet or managing your inventory! One Deck Dungeon lets you jump right in to bashing down doors, rolling dice, and squashing baddies with style. Get a full roguelike game experience, boiled down to its essence, and captured in a single deck of cards and a handful of dice!
One Deck Dungeon is a dungeon crawling adventure game. Each time you play, choose one or two of these 9 brave heroes:
• Mage - There's rarely a problem in the dungeon she can't solve with a spell.
• Warrior - Her favorite dungeon activity is squashing her opponents immediately.
• Rogue - Watch in awe as she dispatches monsters with style.
• Archer - Accurate, brilliant, catastrophically deadly.
• Paladin - She seeks out danger and shields her allies from deadly enemies.
• Caliana - This faerie has decided that dungeoneering looks fun! Don't let her get bored...
• Fanatic - A righteous Sentinel is here to smite evil wherever it may lurk!
• Witch - Her chaotic magic hammer is ready to smash glooping oozes into glooping puddles!
• Mist - This breach mage has crossed over from the world of Aeon's End to help defend Mynerva.
There are 7 dangerous challenges to face:
• Dragon’s Cave - The thick-skinned wyvern who occupies this dungeon prefers her heroes on the crispy side.
• Yeti’s Cavern - If you can survive the freezing winds and biting cold, an abominable snowman awaits.
• Hydra’s Reef - Chop off one head, and another appears! This regenerating venomous monstrosity is a slippery foe.
• Lich’s Tomb - Hordes of undead foes, evil curses, and magical wards. What could possibly go wrong?
• Minotaur’s Maze - Abandon all hope, ye who enter here!
• Cinder Plains - The Hellhound awaits those reckless enough to venture here...
• Phoenix's Den - Only the bravest heroes can handle the heat!
All cards in One Deck Dungeon have many colorful boxes. Roll your dice, and attempt to fill in as many boxes as possible. For every one you don't fill, you’ll suffer consequences in hearts and time! Once you complete an encounter you'll be able to learn a new skill, acquire a new item, or gain experience to level up your hero. Descend the dungeon and face the boss for the final challenge!
After every game, your heroes make progress toward unlocking up to 15 new talents, building up their power for future games.
Once you know your way around the dungeon, a game takes about 15 minutes. It might take a little longer if you're learning, or a lot shorter if you jump into a pit of spikes.
Warning: do not jump into a pit of spikes.
Welcome to the world of One Deck Dungeon. Adventure awaits!

I bought One Deck Dungeon for Switch because there are no reviews yet. I played and enjoyed the pc steam version. The Switch version is the same.
it's recommended to have played the physical version yourself, it's not enough to watch some board game nerds play it for you on youtube. I have played a few times the analog version, and then you are immediately grabbed by the "app".
The game drops you into the tutorial (you can opt out but why would you) to play as a warrior gives some tips and typical examples. Then after showing most of the game you can complete the first dungeon yourself.
It plays well in handheld, the controls are very natural, and work better than the mouse on switch. UI has been well-adapted to the controls of the Switch Lite.
Somehow the game feels a bit unfinished:
Long term benefits:
This is the first and last dungeon crawler you will ever need for Switch. This, and maybe Quest of Dungeons, which is the best of its ilk and hangs miles below ODD.
By purchasing this you get a very good adaptation of the board game (which is really good as a board game as well). Worth its money, but there are a few rough edges that might be smoothened out in the future.
@kosterix Hey, thanks for writing this review! I'm thinking of buying it.
lol that was so long ago I don't even remember what I wrote. Yeah after re-reading I think I still agree. Haven't played in ages though, due to work / life / other games. Still good price to quality ratio.
