Today’s Spotlight is Soda Dungeon 2, a semi-idle dungeon crawler by AN Productions, Poxpower, and Armor Games Studios.
Much like the original, Soda Dungeon 2 is a laid-back dungeon crawler about assembling parties of adventurers and sending them out on quests to fight the forces of evil, and amass large piles of legendary loot.
In addition to offering an all-new adventure, Soda Dungeon 2 features an expanded upgrade system that allows you to build up an entire town for adventurers. You can also craft tons of new items and gear, and set custom AI patterns for your party.
You can find the launch trailer below.
Soda Dungeon 2 is free-to-play on Windows PC, Mac (both via Steam), Android, and iOS.
You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:
ABOUT
Your favorite fizzy dungeon crawler is back! The Dark Lord has locked all sorts of legendary items, loot, and goodies up in his castle behind a seemingly endless guard of monsters, traps, and treachery. Daunting? Not for you— You’ll be safe in the tavern hiring Soda Junkies to do the dirty work for you. Take the loot they bring back to upgrade your tavern, town, and armory to attract stronger adventurers, then repeat. Build your town, assemble a mighty team, and see if you can make it through the dungeon to the next dimension and beyond.
Along the way your band of merry, soda-fueled minions will encounter trumpeting skeletons, angry chefs, Dark Lords, Darker Lords, and a fairy that is just really, really trying her best. The only thing they won’t find is timers, lives systems, or a paywall. Everything can be bought with in-game currency because that’s just the Soda Dungeon way.
