A phone-based, turn-based roguelike that recreates a pencil-and-paper dungeon crawl, with visible dice, maps, and character sheets.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-06 issue.
For
Phone players who miss pencil-and-paper dungeon crawls
Worth noticing
Rooms appear on 10-foot graph-paper squares; a secret door is added only after the player searches.

Field notes

Every room is drawn in grey pencil on 10-foot squares; searching reveals secret doors rather than showing them in advance. Combat exposes the d20 roll, weapon die, armor class, abilities, hit points, and saving throws instead of hiding them behind interface bars. The GM's handwritten narration, original monsters and items, and permanent-death character sheets are presented as parts of the game's design.
