About Dream Quest

Dream Quest is a roguelike deck‑building game where you explore randomly generated levels using a deck of cards that represent your character’s abilities. Each run lasts about thirty minutes, and you can choose from thirteen distinct classes, each with its own play style.

Progress is tracked through achievements that subtly ease future runs, and the game offers over three hundred cards and more than seventy monsters, providing extensive replay value without any in‑app purchases.

01 / THE GUIDE

13 Unique Classes

The game features thirteen classes, each starting with a different set of cards that shape early strategies. For example, a thief begins with Slice and Backstab, while other classes have their own thematic abilities.

These classes diverge in play style, encouraging players to experiment with varied decks and tactics across runs.

  • Try a few classes to see which card combos feel most natural to you.
  • Notice how each class’s starter cards influence early encounters.

02 / THE GUIDE

Deck Construction

Your abilities are represented by a deck of cards that expands as you gain power. Adding the right cards is essential for success, while poor choices can hinder progress.

Cards range from defensive options like Dodge to powerful finishers such as Coup de Grace, letting you tailor your strategy.

  • Balance offensive and defensive cards to handle varied monster encounters.
  • Choose added cards that complement your existing deck to keep it efficient.

Randomly Generated Levels

Each floor is generated anew, placing your character in diverse environments such as crypts, underwater zones, or volcanic wastelands. This randomness keeps each session fresh.

The variety of settings influences which monsters appear and which cards become most useful.

  • Adapt your deck to the theme of the current floor for smoother runs.
  • Note how each environment’s theme shapes the challenges you face.

04 / THE GUIDE

Achievements System

As you play, you earn achievements that make future runs a little easier or more interesting. These are unlocked solely through gameplay.

Achievements provide a sense of progression beyond individual runs, encouraging repeated play.

  • Track which achievements you’ve earned to target those you haven’t.
  • Focus on achievement goals that align with your preferred class.

05 / THE GUIDE

No In‑App Purchases

Dream Quest contains no in‑app purchases; the purchase price covers all content. All cards, classes, and monsters are unlocked through playing.

This design ensures that every player has equal access to the full game experience.

  • Plan your playtime to explore the full card pool without worrying about extra costs.
  • Enjoy the satisfaction of unlocking everything through skillful runs.
