Buriedbornes - Dungeon RPG

Buriedbornes is a hardcore turn-based dungeon RPG with a strong asynchronous multiplayer twist. You create a hero, pick a job, descend through procedurally generated dungeon floors, and try to kill the Ancient Overlord on floor 10. Death is permanent — your hero and all their belongings are lost.

The asynchronous twist: dead heroes from your runs become "Roaming Dead" — enemies that appear in other players' dungeons. Beating one yields supply pickups, and you can leave a message on your own corpse for whoever defeats you, and read messages from others on the corpses you encounter.

Gameplay is room-by-room. You pick which doors to open, which rooms to enter, what skills to use in turn-based combat, and what items or skills to acquire from drops and events. Floor bosses gate progression to the next level.

Soulstones — a meta-currency collected across runs — unlock special jobs that are otherwise inaccessible, encouraging experimentation across many character builds. The game is deliberately punishing, with the strategy depth coming from equipment and skill synergies rather than raw stat checks. Originally a long-running mobile title, now on Steam with the same accumulated depth.
