The Ancient Dungeon is an infamous locale that has appeared and disappeared for thousands of years. While its origins are unknown, men and women around the world seek it out in hopes of reclaiming a portion of its legendary fortune.
 

Delve into an ever-shifting labyrinth of treasures, traps, and terrors in an attempt to escape with the dungeon’s riches in tow! More than 125 powerful artifacts within may help you along the way, but both the dungeon and its denizens will try to stop you. No matter the outcome, however, other adventurers are sure to follow, and begin their own journey.
 

Only after multiple successful delves will The Beast be truly defeated and the dangers presented by The Ancient Dungeon finally quelled.
