French indie developer Amplitude Studios has announced that its rogue-like dungeon-defense game Dungeon of the Endless is available now on iPad. Featuring a smart new interface with quick, one-touch controls, a well-balanced blend of do-or-die gameplay, dungeon-defense strategy, and RPG elements, Dungeon of the Endless has been custom-built for an on-the-go iPad experience, and is available on the App Store for $4.99.
Originally distributed on Steam PC in October 2014, and nominated at the D.I.C.E. Awards for Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year and Outstanding Achievement in Game Design, DotE on iPad offers a unique rogue-like experience with a retro 2D look, colorful animations, and eye-catching lighting effects. Mobile iPad gamers will get all of the latest updates including “Deep-Freeze” and “Bookworm” for the full DotE experience. Players will have the chance to build and equip their own team, gather resources and construct defenses, all while exploring an infinite number of dungeons and fighting bizarre alien monsters, in an effort to reach the planet’s surface. The hybrid styles of rogue-like, tower-defense, and RPG elements are built around a strategic core giving DotE a gameplay experience like none other.
“We have worked really hard to capture the essence of the original PC game and bring it to the iPad in a way that reflects the game’s best qualities,” said Romain de Waubert de Genlis, Creative Director at Amplitude Studios. “The intuitive one-touch controls are perfectly adapted to the mobile experience, and the great tension of picking the right strategy before opening the next door is just as excruciating and exhilarating as ever.”
