About
dunjungle is an action-packed roguelite about an ape who ventures into a jungle under the threat of a corrupting power that is transforming its peaceful creatures and destroying everything in its path.
You’ll explore ever-changing dungeons, temples, crypts, and other mysterious locations, where you’ll encounter all sorts of strange enemies and an arsenal of weapons, spells, and relics, giving you a different experience every time you play.
Not all creatures are hostile! On your way, you may encounter characters lost, trapped, or maybe just chilling there. Help them and maybe you’ll become friends!
(Spoiler: many of them are monkeys).
