THE LOOT RUSH Every round is a fast-paced descent into plagued and cursed locations with one rule: you're not leaving until the carriage arrives. There's no early extraction. Grab everything of value, then survive long enough to keep it. Death won't end your round, but every time you go down, you lose what you've collected. Push deeper for better loot and the round only gets harder. OUTPERFORM YOUR RIVALS Rival AI plague doctor guilds run their own expeditions each round and rack up their own totals. Every few rounds, The Crown reviews the standings and permanently shuts down the least productive guild. Check the leaderboard before each round, see exactly where you stand, and plan your next move accordingly. GEAR UP FOR EACH ROUND Choose from over 30 unique items, gadgets, and mystical artifacts available across personal and team shops. Your personal offerings are shaped by your reputation, which in turn is based on your performances each round. Every round starts with real choices about how to spend and what to bring along. PICK YOUR POISON Before each round, choose your destination from a set of available contracts. Each one shows you the difficulty, the location type, the creatures inside, and the potential loot, but some details are mostly hidden. The rival leaderboard might not give you the luxury of playing it safe. CREW OR SOLO Assemble a crew of up to 6 players and take on contracts together, where coordination and trust determine who walks out rich and who walks out with nothing. Or take on the depths alone in a dedicated Solo mode built as a full rogue-like experience with its own progression and challenge.
