Dungeon Delvers is a fast co-op dungeon crawler where you clear rooms, collect gold, upgrade your build,
strengthen your weapon, and push deeper into harder floors. You can play solo or with friends, starting with either a sword
or a bow depending on your playstyle.
Solo or Co-op · Up to 4 Players
1. Goal of the Game
Clear enemies, survive each floor, collect gold, open chests, use the shop between floors, and keep descending.
Every few floors the dungeon becomes much more dangerous, and every 5th floor brings a boss encounter.
The deeper you go, the more enemy variety and pressure you face.
2. Game Modes
Solo
Press Play Solo, choose your starting weapon, and enter the dungeon immediately.
Multiplayer
Create a room or join one with a room code. All players choose their starting weapon and confirm before the run starts.

4. Starting Weapons
⚔ Sword
Close-range, reliable, and great in tight rooms. It is the best all-round option and it benefits directly from enchanting.
🏹 Bow
Safer at range and good for keeping distance, but it starts with a health penalty compared to sword builds.
5. Combat Basics
- Use movement constantly. Standing still gets you surrounded.
- Dash through danger to reposition or escape pressure.
- Sword builds reward aggressive close play.
- Bow builds reward spacing and safer engagements.
- Different enemy types become more common as floors go up.
6. Gold and Chests
Gold is your main currency. You earn it from kills and can also find it in chests.
- Most chests give gold
- A smaller number of chests can drop a special weapon
- Special chest weapons usually advance your current weapon path
7. The Shop
Between floors you can spend gold before continuing deeper.
Common Shop Options
- Weapon upgrades
- Health Potion
- Attack Boost
- Next Floor / Continue
Important
Weapon offers depend on your current path, so your next sword and next bow option are tied to tier progression.
8. Enchanting
Enchanting appears on even-numbered floors. If you find the enchant table, you can spend gold to improve your sword further.
- Enchant cost: 100 gold
- Max enchant level: 8
- Effect: +10% sword damage per level
Enchanting is one of the strongest ways to scale a sword run into late floors.
9. Enemy Types
The dungeon mixes several enemy archetypes as you progress:
Creeper
Dasher
Titan
Sniper
Supporter
Guard
Stalker
Boss: Dungeon Lord
Some weapon elements are stronger or weaker against certain enemy types, so not every weapon performs the same in every fight.
10. Boss Floors
Every 5th floor is a boss floor. Boss runs are tougher and reward surviving players with a much bigger milestone in the run.
- Boss floors also still include regular enemies
- The boss is much stronger than standard mobs
- You need good movement and upgrades to survive
11. Multiplayer Tips
- The host creates the room and shares the code
- Each player chooses sword or bow before the run begins
- Gold and readiness are synchronized during multiplayer systems
- Wait for everyone in shop flow before continuing
12. Best Beginner Strategy
- Start with sword if you want the easiest build to learn
- Use dash often instead of saving it too long
- Prioritize survivability early
- Spend gold instead of hoarding too much
- Use enchantments when available on sword runs
- Prepare carefully before boss floors
