About
Quest Master is a dungeon maker inspired by the classics that first made us love dungeon crawling. Unleash your imagination, alone or in local cooperative play, to make dungeons full of puzzles, traps and monsters. Upload them for others to explore and challenge yourself with other players’ creations.
Key Features
- Make Your Own Dungeons – With dozens of parts, both classic and new, at your disposal, the possibilities are endless! There’s enemies of all types too, from basic bad guy fodder to fearsome bosses. Combine different ones to create entirely new mechanics and complex scenarios!
- Choose Your Theme – Cycle between unique dungeon themes with the click of a button to give your dungeon a fresh coat of paint. Set your dungeon in a sand temple, a fiery cavern or in a lush forest. All components of the dungeon swap on the fly — you’re never locked into just one.
- A Robust Event System – Link different dungeon components together with an intuitive drag-and-drop system to create events in your dungeon. Make keys and items appear when all enemies are slain, or rig a devious trap to an innocuous switch—these are the most basic examples. Experiment and find out what else is possible!
- It’s Dangerous to Build Alone – Have some inventive friends? Round them up and work together to build and explore in local cooperative play with up to three friends.
- Share Your Creations – Built the perfect dungeon? Upload it for other players to test their mettle. Need a new challenge? Dive into another dungeon from the ever-growing list of community-uploaded creations.
