Warden's Descent

Go deeper than you should.
Warden's Descent is a 1–4 player co-op dungeon crawler built around the oldest argument in the genre: one more floor, or get out while you still can. Everything you pull out of the dark is only yours once you climb back out with it. Die down there and it stays down there.

Every floor is dealt fresh
No two floors are ever dealt the same way twice — and some arrive with an omen on them, one rule the whole floor plays by:
FLOODED — the water slows every stride. Archers do not care.

LIGHTS OUT — you see as far as your light. The braziers are refuge.

BLOOD PRICE — everything hits harder, and everything pays double.

THE SWARM — twice as many, half as sturdy.

GILDED — one of them is made of gold. It will not stay long.

HAUNTED — what you kill gets back up once.

Four players, one bad idea
Play solo or with up to three friends online. Downed players stay revivable while the timer runs, so a wipe is usually a chain of small decisions rather than one big mistake. Open a room with a four-letter code, or point the whole party at a dedicated server. A full party of four can carry one under-levelled friend: they ride, they loot, they don't unlock.Four realms, not four palette swaps
44 gauntlets across 236 hand-authored floors, each realm with its own tileset, bestiary, armoury and rules:
The Deepworks — worked stone, catacombs, flooded halls and forge-light. Where everyone starts.

The Icy Depths — rime and rotten ice, a long night, and whatever is under the bottom ice.

The Salt — a dried pan, a field of fused glass, a bitter well, a fleet stranded on a sea that left, and a cathedral of halite grown enormous.

The Marrow — cancellous bone, red marrow, and the endosteum. The deepest floors in the game.

Guardians that teach you something
Every gauntlet ends with a guardian fought in phases, and every phase telegraphs before it lands. The first attempt is a reading exercise and the fifth is muscle memory. Nothing down here is a damage check you could not see coming. Over 250 kinds of thing want you dead on the way there, and no two gauntlets share more than a handful of them.Gear that belongs to where it dropped
Weapons, armour and trinkets roll from the floor you found them on, up through Legendary, with mythic uniques that change how a build plays rather than just adding a number to it. Each realm carries its own armoury, so going deeper means learning new verbs instead of scaling the old ones. Forge affixes onto what you keep, trade at the mat, and name the kits you come back to.Bank it, or lose it
Extract and the run is banked — loot to your stash, progress to your profile, new gauntlets open on the Path of Skulls. Push one floor too far and the dark takes all of it.On day one
