"Dungeon League" is a fast-paced, multiplayer party game where up to four players compete in randomized dungeons filled with enemies and loot. Players must battle each other and hordes of monsters in a series of objectives to gain new powers and items, with the ultimate goal of claiming three round victories in either the two vs two Tournament or the free-for-all Battle. Rounds are short and chaotic, requiring quick thinking and strategy to emerge victorious.
