Dungreed is a roguelike action-platformer that combines fast 2D combat with procedurally generated dungeons and persistent progression between runs. Players fight through waves of enemies while collecting weapons and upgrades to grow stronger over time.

A hub town lets players spend earnings on permanent upgrades, softening the sting of death and giving each run cumulative purpose. Its mix of tight platforming combat and roguelike structure has made it a well-regarded entry in the genre.
