Details

“It is beneath the earth, in the grim depths of underground realms, that the sacred seal of the Doomcrawler is earned. Only those who descend into the darkness and rise again are worthy of claiming the mark.”

– The Sanctum of the Scribes.

Game Overview:

Doomcrawler centres around the Dice Track system, where dice are placed and advanced across cards to trigger actions, abilities, and events while shaping hero progression and enemy behaviour.

Each session uses a Dungeon Stack of one to three dungeon cards, determining both difficulty and length. Players must survive each layer, overcome threats, complete side quests, and manage resources before attempting escape.

Gameplay alternates between two phases:

• Hero Phase — activate skills, perform actions, and plan your turn
• Dungeon Phase — threats and environments advance, escalating danger

As the descent continues, players must balance risk and reward through loot, upgrades, tactical decisions, and survival under growing pressure.

As players descend deeper into the dungeon, 4 sealed Reward Packs are unlocked through completing specific challenges, each containing hidden bonus content for both Heroes of the Sanctum: Doomcrawler™ and Heroes of the Sanctum: The Strategy Card Game™.

Victory is achieved by escaping the Dungeon Stack. Failure comes swiftly for those who cannot endure the depths.
