The options aren’t hidden, but there’s a lot going on to keep track of. That’s because Dungeon of the Endless is a game of climbing through levels, but more than that it’s one about peeling back layers. At first glance, it’s a roguelike a randomly generated, science- fiction dungeon to explore one room at a time. Now those rooms have to be lit to prevent them from spawning monsters, but there’s no way to do so for more than a handful at a time. Now those powered rooms play host to tower defence action, where you build weapons and support structures to protect your team of two heroes. At this point, Dungeon of the Endless could easily stop. Provided you can get over its introductory hump though, it’s the kind of difficulty that you can conquer simply by playing, getting a little further each time and enjoying the small victories. Playable heroes, for instance, are unlocked not by simply meeting them, but by surviving three levels with them, and each offer their own subtleties. A fast runner like Sara Numas (no relation to Samus Aran…) isn’t as effective in combat as someone like Gork “Not Arnie/Duke Nukem” Koroser, but can be a great help when trying to rush the crystal to the exit past the sudden swarm of aliens that begins as soon as you pick it up. There’s also an element of synergy to handle. The plot is that everyone arrived on a crashed prison ship, so some characters are guards and lawmen, and others newly escaped convicts.

Tactics soon emerge naturally, such as the realisation that you don’t have to fight enemies in their rooms - there’s nothing at all stopping you kiting them back into a pre-prepared deathtrap full of turrets.
All of this is wrapped in excellent, and very thoughtful design. A basic but outstanding demonstration is that while you’re actually in-game and playing, the dark rooms and busy pixellated backgrounds can make it difficult to see doors and heroes, but you’re only a spin of the mousewheel away from a clear map where everything is flagged up in strong colours - a map from which you can also issue orders to heroes to save having to pan around the whole level. It might be more realistic to need the heroes to build guns into rooms, or to only be able to do so while they’re not infested with monsters. But it wouldn’t be as fluid either, and so Dungeon of the Endless lets you place them as if by magic, albeit on a timer. It also automatically powers the room if you have enough of the relevant resource, rather than insisting on that petty extra click.Crafting Motifs are books that unlock the ability to craft an item in a certain style through blacksmithing, clothing, or woodworking. Reading a motif also unlocks the related style for use with the Outfit System. Every player begins the game having already "learned" the racial motif associated with their race. There are two types of motif, complete and partial.
