About Gumballs & Dungeons
Gumballs & Dungeons is a free‑to‑play roguelike dungeon crawler where players guide a growing cast of Gumballs to defeat the Evil Dominator of Erathia. The game features procedurally generated dungeons, devastating bosses, and a variety of quests that encourage exploration and experimentation.
The Steam edition runs offline, focuses on dungeon expeditions, and removes the Sky and Space domains found in the original. Players can collect hundreds of Gumballs from four factions, link their powers, and test their limits in an Endless Mode that challenges how deep they can descend.
01 / THE GUIDE
Dungeon Exploration
Each run sends you through a shadow‑filled path that can reveal enemies, events, or hidden caves. Over twenty themed dungeons provide surprise mechanics that keep each expedition fresh. Exploring both visible and hidden routes is encouraged, as the game hides easter eggs and unique encounters throughout the labyrinthine levels.
- Take time to investigate side corridors; they often hide extra Gumballs or quirky events.
- Note recurring visual cues that may signal secret passages.

Gumball Collection
Hundreds of Gumballs are available across four distinct factions, each offering its own abilities and skillsets. Collecting them expands your roster and lets you upgrade their capabilities. Linking Gumballs together during expeditions lets you borrow powers, creating synergies that can turn tough battles in your favor.
- Mix Gumballs from different factions to discover unexpected power combinations.
- Prioritize Gumballs that complement your preferred playstyle for smoother progression.
03 / THE GUIDE
Endless Mode
Endless Mode challenges players to survive as many dungeon floors as possible before defeat. The mode tests how deep you can go and how many bosses you can overcome. Because the mode is unbounded, each run feels like a personal high‑score attempt, encouraging strategic Gumball linking and careful path selection.
- Conserve powerful Gumballs for later floors where boss difficulty spikes.
- Observe boss patterns early to adapt your linked abilities efficiently.

Steam Offline Differences
The Steam version runs offline and makes dungeon expeditions the core loop, removing the Sky and Space domains present in the original. This adjustment streamlines the experience for single‑player focus. Profiles cannot be transferred between the Steam edition and the original version, meaning progress is kept separate for each platform.
- Use the offline capability to play anywhere without an internet connection.
- Treat each version as its own save; start fresh when switching platforms.
05 / THE GUIDE
Achievements & Steam Cloud
The game supports Steam Achievements, letting players track milestones as they play. Steam Cloud support is also listed for the game. Family Sharing is also listed among the game's Steam features.
- Check the achievement list for goals that may guide exploration.
- Enable Cloud sync in Steam settings to safeguard your expedition data.
