The land needs heroes, but what it gets is you. A motley adventurer down on their luck, ill-equipped for the dangers ahead. Will you escape with your life, will you perish and succumb to the darkness of the dungeon-like caves you are travelling? Or will you overcome all odds through clever planning and the luck of the draw?
Once Upon A Tile has you explore a dungeon for a variety of reasons. There may be a huge danger lurking at the heart of it, requiring a brave warrior to defeat it. A princess may have been kidnapped, and it is on you to loot all the treasure to pay the ransom. Maybe the monstrous population needs to be culled, before it overruns nearby settlements.
The reasons will change, but the goal remains the same - build the dungeon as you explore it, and avoid traipsing over too many traps or monsters you can not defeat yet. This will require a little bit of luck and a whole lot of strategic planning.
