In Dungeons of Aether verschmelzen rundenbasiertes Dungeon Crawling und Roguelite-Strategie. Wählt aus vier Helden - der vielseitige Allrounder Fleet, der robuste Hamir, der schlüpfrige Pirat Slade oder die regenerative Artemis -, die jeweils einzigartige Fähigkeiten in Kämpfe in der Steam-Punk-Stadt Julesvale und ihren Höhlen einbringen. Im Dice-Draft-Kampf müsst ihr euch jede Runde anpassen, denn clevere Entscheidungen verschieben die Wahrscheinlichkeiten, um Schätze zu ergattern oder Niederlage zu erleiden.
Im Story-Modus rüstet ihr euch in der Stadt aus, plaudert mit Einheimischen und erobert Biomes wie Julesvale Mines oder Lava Caves, um Journal-Einträge und Lore zu sammeln. Challenge Dungeons steigern die Roguelike-Intensität mit Zufallsereignissen, vollständigen Biome-Runs und Leaderboards nach Endgold. Dieses Indie-RPG ist ideal für geduldige Taktiker, die Würfelrisiken und wachsende Herausforderungen lieben.
