Developer Shattered Pixel

Version 4.0.0 · Open source · Windows · macOS · Linux · Android

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a rogue style with turns, pixel images and dungeons that are constructed differently in a new attempt. You choose a hero, collect equipment and assess by step which risk derivatives you take. Enemies move when you act, so you have time to consider a decision.

Weapons, drinks, rollers and other objects determine how an attempt is made. Not only can you rely on quick reactions: recognising dangers and using limited resources is more important. A failed attempt is part of the game and gives you information for the next run.

The developer offers direct open-source downloads for desktop and Android. There are also retail expenses, including a paid iOS version. Choose the channel that suits your device and how you want to receive updates. The free direct edition is not the same as the price in every app store.

Who is it for?

You like tactical choices and don't mind starting over. The game fits with short play sessions in which you can quietly think about each step, but is less suitable if you want to follow a relaxed story without loss.

Getting started

Choose the official download for Windows, macOS, Linux or Android. The separate JAR is intended for systems with Java 11 or newer; preferably use the package for your operating system.

Privacy

The direct desktop release runs on your own computer. If you download via a store, the terms and conditions of that store apply to purchase and account details. Keep your game details carefully if you change installation or device.

Our verdict

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is attractive if you like to learn by trying. The game requires little haste, but attention: a wrong choice with a drink or opponent can continue working later. Just the combination of short actions and lasting effects makes it suitable for lovers of tactics. If you are looking for a game in which you see all the content without much resistance, then it can start frustrating again. First try the free instant issue before buying a store version.
