Fame & Fear: Dungeon Architect – Press kit

Build the dungeon. Attract the heroes. Decide who gets to leave.

Fame & Fear: Dungeon Architect is a dungeon management game where you design, expand, and customize your own dungeon before opening its doors to waves of adventurers.

Dig new rooms, place traps, hire monsters, hide treasures, and create a dungeon worth talking about.

But there is a catch: killing every adventurer is not necessarily the best strategy.

Survivors spread stories about your dungeon, increasing its fame and attracting even more visitors. Those who fail to make it out still leave behind valuable rewards.

The goal is to find the right balance between fame, danger, and profit.

Build a dungeon deadly enough to be feared, but memorable enough that adventurers keep coming back.

Key Features

Build your own dungeon
Dig rooms and corridors, expand your available space, and shape your dungeon however you want.
Fill it with danger
Place traps, hire monsters, position bosses, and create encounters for incoming adventurers.
Balance fame and fear
A dungeon where nobody survives may quickly stop attracting visitors. Letting everyone escape, however, is not exactly good business either.
Attract adventurers
As your reputation grows, more heroes will arrive looking for treasure, glory, and hopefully a way back out.
Customize your dungeon
Decorate rooms, experiment with different layouts, lighting, themes, and dungeon styles.
Manage your resources
Use your earnings to expand the dungeon, unlock new content, and make each new day more profitable — and more dangerous.

Game Loop

During the building phase, you prepare your dungeon by expanding rooms, placing traps, monsters, treasures, and decorations.

Once the doors open, adventurers enter and explore the dungeon.

You can then watch your creation in action, see what works, discover its weaknesses, collect your rewards, and prepare an even better dungeon for the next group of unfortunate visitors.
