Assess which guarded resources are worth spending your health on as you navigate complex dungeons.













Here is an excerpt from DROD RPG 2: A Courageous Rescue's Steam description:
DROD RPG 2 is a 2D puzzle adventure dungeon crawl with resource management, RPG, and move optimization elements. This sequel to "DROD RPG" features an all new three-chapter campaign with adjustable difficulty settings, plus new graphics, music, game elements, quality-of-life features, and an upgraded level editor with vastly expanded scripting support.
This is a "Magic Tower" game like Tower of the Sorcerer, Desktop Dungeons, and Tactical Nexus.
DROD RPG 2 combines DROD's puzzle elements, strategy, worldbuilding, and story backdrop with player stats, weapons and armor, one-on-one monster duels, items, custom power-ups and treasure.
As a puzzle/logic game, level layouts, items, enemy encounters, and treasures are all hand-crafted to bring you a series of engaging, well thought-out puzzles that are a joy to solve. Navigate through series of interlocking rooms, looking for the exit on each level. Spend hit points and resources wisely to power up and advance. Decide which pre-placed monsters to fight along the way. Battles resolve deterministically according to a clear set of rules. Get rewards from defeating enemies now or come back later when you're more powerful and can take less damage.
Combining DROD's straight-forward interface and flexible puzzle widgets with the staples of dungeon crawling and resource management makes for a unique, genre-busting gaming experience. Play this game to relax and contemplate, or take advantage of its huge depth and optional elements of challenge and replayability to optimize your score against other Steam players. Along with a powerful level editor, modding capabilities and an enthusiastic player community producing novel puzzle content, this is a game you can enjoy for years.
