About this game

Maze Keeper is a reverse Dungeon Crawler, combining

Tower Defense, Roguelike and Auto Battler.

A game where you're not the classic hero, the brave adventurer,

but instead the guardian of a haunted maze.

Your mission? Stop the adventurer from reaching the exit !

⦿ A wide range of monsters

Monsters that are increasingly powerful but also increasingly difficult to place,

with different families of monsters each with their own specialities.

Discover them all !

⦿ An endless domain of mazes

The game takes place in a procedurally-generated maze

so each playthrough offers a unique challenge.

Reroll the maze as much as you like before the game starts,

until you find a comfortable layout to play your run!

⦿ Lots of cards to help you

Monster cards and special cards to reinforce your tiles,

move or improve the strength of your monsters.

⦿ Find the totems to obtain powerful upgrades

Totems offer powerful passive powers to some, if not all, of your monsters,

opening up a wide range of strategies and gameplay options.

    Bestiary Update

    Greetings, The Keeper always has a few tricks up his sleeve… and once again, he’s got plenty of surprises in store.More than a year after release, this new content update brings a fresh breeze into the labyrinth, giving you new ways to challenge the adventurer.1. New monstersWith 25 new monsters of all levels, this update expands the Grimoire and introduces a wide variety of new strategies, synergies, and mechanics.→ New starter monsters: a fire one, a water one, a plant one… which will you choose? (Sounds familiar?)→ New support monsters: to heal or boost your other creatures.→ New terribly powerful monsters… but also terribly hard to summon.To avoid overcrowding the “Neutral Monsters” section of the Grimoire, new family filters have been added: Mole, Mercenary, and Pig families.Until now, discovering monsters required you to stumble upon their placement conditions, summon them through Altars, or meet them in Story Mode.Some of the new monsters have particularly demanding placement conditions and can’t always be obtained via Altars. So there’s now another way to expand your Grimoire: Keeper’s Keys.Earn Keys by scoring high in your runs and use them to discover new monsters directly from the Grimoire!2. TurretsBut that’s not all: the labyrinth now features an entirely new turret system.Hard and costly to obtain, these structures allow you to attack the adventurer from outside the path, bringing a classic tower defense flavor to the heart of Maze Keeper.Powerful but demanding, turrets require regular maintenance to stay operational.Those who master them will find them to be a formidable asset.3. Adjustments & Balance Changes• Fear mechanic adjustmentsFear used to be far too powerful: when optimized, the adventurer’s damage per tile became excessive, while his Anger gauge stayed empty since deaths weren’t caused by monsters and since the adventurer killed the numerous ghosts that come back to life on the board.→ Damage taken from tile effects now decreases each time t...
