Editorial overview
What it is
DROD RPG 2 is a 2D puzzle adventure dungeon crawl with resource management, RPG, and move optimization elements. This sequel to "DROD RPG" features an all new three-chapter campaign with adjustable difficulty settings, plus new graphics, music, game elements, quality-of-life features, and an upgraded level editor with vastly expanded scripting support.
This is a "Magic Tower" game like Tower of the Sorcerer, Desktop Dungeons, and Tactical Nexus.
DROD RPG 2 combines DROD's puzzle elements, strategy, worldbuilding, and story backdrop with player stats, weapons and armor, one-on-one monster duels, items, custom power-ups and treasure.
As a puzzle/logic game, level layouts, items, enemy encounters, and treasures are all hand-crafted to bring you a series of engaging, well thought-out puzzles that are a joy to solve. Navigate through series of interlocking rooms, looking for the exit on each level. Spend hit points and resources wisely to power up and advance. Decide which pre-placed monsters to fight along the way. Battles resolve deterministically according to a clear set of rules. Get rewards from defeating enemies now or come back later when you're more powerful and can take less damage.
The premise
Help Tendry, a leader in the Stalwart Army, liberate his people from the Underground Empire. He might not be the ideal warrior, but he's got a lot of panache to make up for his lack in prowess. Seek out powerful combat upgrades to keep him from killing himself long enough to save his homeland.
