Dungeons of Dreadrock 2

These puzzling catacombs are fiendishly fun!

The greatest weapon in Dungeons of Dreadrock 2? Your sharp mind! As a priestess of the Order of the Flame, search for a lost artefact hidden in a puzzle-packed, pixel-art dungeon. Throw rocks through teleporters to hit distant switches. Lure stone guardians to shield you from arrow traps. Just keep digging!

What we love: Cracking a clever puzzle. That steelskin potion can protect you from a fireball trap; could it also help you survive an otherwise fatal fall? Think outside the box – you might be surprised at what works.

Who’s the goblin with the lantern? And how do you dodge dragon fire when it travels through teleporters? The mysteries never cease!

Quick tip: The footprints you leave after walking through blood aren’t just a cool visual touch – you’ll eventually encounter monsters that follow these tracks. Lead these icky creatures to where you need them, like on top of a pressure plate that opens a locked gate.

Meet the creator: In 2025, Christoph Minnameier left his job as a professor of game design to become a full-time solo developer. As a busy father of two, he created the Dungeons of Dreadrock series to be a more accessible and bite-size take on classic dungeon crawlers.
