Desktop Dungeons is the perfect back-to-school game


by Kill Screen Staff

As the end of August looms ever-closer, the reality of having to go back to school is probably getting a little too real for some of you. Luckily, there’s a game out there to help ease you back into the grind.

Desktop Dungeons is so perfectly suited to quick lunchtime sessions or passing the time while you sit in the hallway waiting for your next class that it should come in your parents’ next care package. Each session can take as little as ten minutes, and the randomly generated dungeons ensure you’ll be doing something new every time you play.

Our review praised the game’s surprising depth: its consistent strategic layer provides rewards over time, as well as poking fun at social games and RPGs. You can even, despite the name, get it on iOS and Android for the ultimate quick fix: we’re not suggesting you play during your next lecture, but it also wouldn’t be difficult, you know?

It also supports cross-device saving, meaning you can start a session on your laptop and pick it up on your phone, and, most importantly, it’s cheap, so you can pick it up and still have money for food this week.
