About the game
The dungeon is stinky, the treasure has underwear and cassette tapes in it and the boss is a ball of tangled wires! No better place to recruit some valiant heroes and go exploring! Charge into danger as you explore compact dungeons and manage the constant dangers you’ll encounter. Cassette Dungeons! packs together resource management, light strategy and the spirit of metal into a cosy little ruleset and game box so that it can be played in even the most cramped cells and dungeons. Stomp through dungeons one by one, murdering the unanimously hostile inhabitants, navigating typical trope traps, slaying a weird boss-thingy, then carefully place the treasure in an evidence bag and repeat this process to gradually build a sense of accomplishment! —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Cassette Dungeons! supports 1 player according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Cassette Dungeons! is 5–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Cassette Dungeons! for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Cassette Dungeons! has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Cassette Dungeons! belongs to these categories: Card Game, Fantasy, and Dice. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Solo / Solitaire Game, and Deck, Bag, and Pool Building. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns.

The catalogue lists Cassette Dungeons! as a base game. It can be played on its own with the components in the box and does not require any other title. Expansions, if any exist, add new content or rules on top of it and are listed separately in the catalogue with a link back to this base game.
