Dungeonrunner

Introduction
Dungeonrunner is a solitaire card game of fantasy
dungeon delving. The game takes about 5-10 minutes
to play. Like most solitaire games, learning is easy,
winning is not.

Object of the Game

Your hero will go through a deck of cards to simulate
the dungeon, crypt, or ruin that your hero is
exploring. Each card will represent either a magical
item, a monster that desperately needs slaying or
some other random event the hero must pass in order
to move forward. If the hero makes it to the quest
card, the hero has successfully completed the
adventure.

Equipment
Inside this box, there are three separate adventure
decks, or as we like to call them, “Hack Packs”. Each
Hack Pack represents a different adventure.

On the bottom right of each card is a “deck identifier”

to let you know which Hack Pack the card belongs to.
That way, if you ever mix up the cards making your
own adventures, (which we encourage you to do), you
can easily place them back in the proper Hack Pack.
 Set Up
Take the deck and find the hero card and place the
it directly in front of you on the table.
Choose a quest from the quest list at the end of
these instructions. Unless otherwise noted, take the
card the quest tells you to. That will be your quest
for this adventure. Shuffle all the remaining cards
back in with the main deck.
Now deal 15 cards. Shuffle those dealt cards along
with the quest card. Place those face down and
sideways to the right side of the table. These cards
make up the Bottom Deck.
Take the remaining cards, shuffle them, then place
them on top (not sideways) of the Bottom Deck.
These are called the Top Deck.
Both the Top Deck and the Bottom Deck are called
the Adventure Deck. Place this to the left of the
hero.
On the upper right of the play area there will be
two discard piles. The first is called Limbo. These
cards may come back into play as the adventure
moves on.
Although it will be rarely used, keep in mind that at
the upper right of the table will be a second
discard pile called Oblivion. This is where cards go
that are rarely brought back into the game.
When discarding cards in Limbo or Oblivion, always
do so face down.
Above the Adventure deck and the Hero is where you
can place all drawn cards until they are resolved.
To the right will be enough space where you can roll
dice.
To start your adventure, flip over a card from the
adventure deck. It will either be an item, a monster,
an ally, or an event.
If the hero survives the card, the turn ends. Start a
new turn by drawing another card.
 Basic Items and Terms
The Hero Card
Here is a typical hero card. The name of the hero
is on the top of the card.
Next, the hero’s class is given. Some cards will
affect, or be affected, by your hero’s class.
Below that, there are three shapes with numbers.
These three numbers represent the Hero’s combat
statistics.
TWAC, which stands for “to wound armor class”,
is a measure of how easily the hero can hurt a
monster.
Armor Class reflects how well the hero can avoid
getting hurt by an enemy.
Hit Points is a measure of how much punishment
the hero can take. When the hero loses all their hit
points, the hero dies, and the game is over.
Attributes
The numbers along the left-hand side are the hero’s
attributes. These numbers measure how strong,
vigorous, dexterous, agile, smart and witty the hero
is.
Powers and Power Points
On the bottom of the card is a section for the
Hero’s powers. These are special rules that apply
to this hero.
Some powers can be used for free, other powers
use power points, which every Hero has three of at
the beginning of the quest.
Threat Tokens
A Hero may have an influence upon them that hit
points do not cover. Things like haunting, stress,
poison, vampire bites, and so on. To represent these,
a Hero may be told to gain a Threat Token.
These effects have a cumulative effect on the Hero. If
the Hero ever gains three Threat Tokens, the Hero
“Succumbs to Fate” in the form of the last event that
gave them the Threat Token. (i.e. if the last token was
from a vampire bite, the Hero becomes a Vampire.)
Rolling the Dice
Two 10-sided dice are used in this game. You will
know which ones to roll when you see the following.
d10
This simply means to roll a die and take the result off
the top. If there is a number before the d10, that
means roll a d10 that many times and add all the
results together.
dd10
This means to roll both dice and subtract the lower
number rolled from the higher number. If the result is
zero, make it a 1 instead.
With either of these methods, you may see a + or -
next to it, simply add or subtract the number after the
symbol to the result of the roll.
Ability Checks
In the game, you will be asked to make an Attribute
Check based on one of the
attributes of the hero. One example would be that the
hero needs to make a Might Check to move a
boulder blocking the path, or an Agility Check to
jump a pit.
To perform an attribute check, roll d10 and look at
the attribute asked for on the hero. If the roll is
equal or less than the hero’s attribute score in that
area, the hero passes the ability check. If not, the
hero fails. The card will tell you what to do in
either case.
Some checks ask to add multiple attributes together.
Roll a number of d10 equal to the number of
attributes added. The check is passed if the combined
roll is equal or less than the total attribute score.
 Item and Event Cards

Item Cards
Items cards represent things the hero finds along
the way on their adventure.
The first line on an item card tells how much gold
the item will be worth.
You may choose to change what you have equipped
before starting a new turn.
You may take one item out of your backpack during
combat but doing so will count as the hero’s action
for that turn.
Event Cards
Events are random occurrences that the hero must
face before moving on.

Most events are straight forward. You will have to

make an ability check of some sort and get rewarded
or penalized depending on if you pass or fail the
ability check.

The second line gives the item’s type. Sometimes,

other cards will affect card you have of a certain
type.

Under the picture may be additional information

that gives the hero special bonuses or abilities
when equipped.

Equipping Items
To use an item during the game, the hero must
have the item equipped. To equip an item, simply
place it face up to the left of the hero.
A hero may only equip one type of item at any
time. The exceptions are potions and scrolls, to
which there is no limit.
The event type is much like the type line on an item
card. Some hero abilities, items, allies, and spells will
affect certain event types.
Afterwards are the instructions of the card that the
hero needs to complete in order to pass the event.
Once the hero passes an event, send the event card to
Limbo.

The Backpack
The hero may hold up to six item cards in the
hero’s backpack. Place any cards you wish to be in
the hero’s backpack underneath the hero card.

Cards that are in the backpack do not give the hero

any benefits or power listed on the cards.
 Scroll and Ally Cards
Scroll Cards
Scrolls are special item cards that are filled with
powerful magic that allows heroes the ability to
cause certain effects in the game.
Casting Checks
To be able to use a scroll’s power, aro must
perform a casting check. This can be done at any
time. If a hero does this during combat, it takes the
hero an action to do so.
A casting check is simply an Intellect ability check.
If the check is passed, follow the instructions given
on the spell card. If it fails, nothing happens.
Keeping Checks
Once a spell has been cast successfully, the hero
must make a keep check to see if they can keep
the scroll, or if it fizzles away into Oblivion.
A keep check is simply a Wit ability check. If the
check is passed, the scroll is safe.
If failed, send the scroll to Oblivion as it vanishes
into dust.
Ally cards
When an ally card is drawn, place the ally card in
front of the hero card. The hero will gain bonuses and
abilities that the travel has to offer until the ally is
killed by a monster. You may have as many allies as
you wish except for those of the class familiar , where
you may only have one.
Guard Checks
Whenever a hero gets hit who also has an ally, you
must make a guard check for that ally. If the hero has
more than one ally in play, randomly choose one.
To perform a guard check, roll a d10. If the roll is
equal or less than the guard number of the ally, the
hero takes the hit as normal. Otherwise, the ally takes
the hit instead.
Any special conditions the monster would apply to a
normal hit, are discarded.
Once an ally’s health goes down to zero, the ally is
dead and is placed in Oblivion.
Heroes may heal allies with items and abilities as they
would heal themselves. In combat situations, you may
try again next turn. Otherwise, you may not try to
cast the spell again that turn.
 Curse and Blessing Cards
Curse Cards
Curse cards are special event cards because they
stick with the hero until removed with a remove
curse spell.
To avoid a curse, the hero needs to make a certain
ability check to avoid the effects. If the hero passes
the check, send the curse to Limbo and proceed to
the next adventure card.
If you fail, place the card below (not underneath)
the hero card. If you ever do get rid of a curse that
is on your hero, place the curse in Oblivion.
Blessing Cards
Blessings work much like curses do. Place these on
the below (not underneath) side of the hero card just
as you would a curse card.
The main difference between blessing and curses is
that blessings will go away a lot faster than a curse.
Blessings will go away once the hero exits the
adventure or by special conditions on the card are
met.
 Monsters and Combat
Monster Cards
Monsters bring forth a special mix of Attribute
Checks and Combat Checks.
Combat Statistics
Monster cards have a combat statistic block just as
the hero does. They work in the same way as well.
Levels
Underneath the monster’s name, is the monster’s
level. This is a special identity that states how
powerful the creature is. Certain items, events, and
abilities may affect, or be affected, by a monster’s
level.
Class
Next is the monster’s class. Certain cards affect or
are affected by a monster’s class.
Abilities
Some monsters have some common abilities, which
are listed next. These abilities are listed at the end
of these instructions.
Special Instructions
Below the picture of the monster is the main area of
instructions for dealing with the monster. When you
first draw the monster card, read this area and follow
the instructions, if any. Afterward, the hero must fight
the monster.
Combat
When combat starts, the hero and monster will
alternate attacking each other.
The hero always gets the first attack. If a monster is
killed, the monster does not get its attack that turn.
To perform an attack, roll both dice. Add the
attacker’s TWAC to the attackers die. Then add the
defenders Armor Class to the result of the
defender’s die roll.
A hero hits if the hero’s attack total is equal or
greater than the monster’s defense total.
A monster hits in the same way but does not hit on
ties.
If the monster is hit, subtract one hit point from the
monster. Otherwise, it is a miss, and nothing happens
If the monster reaches zero hit points, it is defeated.
Send the monster to Limbo.
If the monster hits, subtract one hit point from the
hero.
If the monster does not kill the Hero, that combat
round ends and a new round begins until there is one
left standing.
 Finishing the Adventure

There are many ways to exit the adventure. What
follows are the common types, although an
adventure may modify these rules with something
else.
Finding the Quest Card
If the hero ever reaches and resolves the quest card
that was chosen, the adventure is over and the
hero is victorious.
Reaching the End of the Deck
After the Adventure
After a hero completes an adventure, they will heal to
full strength. Any curses wither away, and blessings
will have run their course. The hero places any gold in
their stash. Any items the hero does not want may be
sold for the gold value listed on the card.
A new adventure awaits!
After some much-needed rest, the hero may leave for
a new adventure. However, once

If for any reason, your hero reaches the end of the
deck, you have two options.
The first is to take all the cards from Limbo, re-
shuffle them into one deck (which will now be
considered a bottom deck) and go through those
cards.
Otherwise, you may choose for the hero to exit the
adventure. The quest will not have been
completed, but the hero will have lived.
Exit the Quest
a hero completes a quest, they may never repeat it.
They may do another quest in the same Hack Pack,
but only after doing a quest from a different Hack
Pack. Heroes often travel about.
Create your own adventures!
Remember, you can always make you own hack pack
from the cards you gather for Dungeonrunner. Feel
free to experiment and have some fun making your
friends go through your adventures. Make them
tough, but not impossible. People should win 20% of
the time.

If the hero gets beaten down or finds an item that

you would really like to keep or sell, you can exit
the quest.

To exit a quest, shuffle all the cards in Limbo

back in the Top Deck of the

Adventure Deck. After ten more cards have been

drawn from the quest deck, the hero will have
found the way out.

If the hero has reached the bottom deck, the only

way to retreat is to go through all the cards in the
bottom deck.
 Monster Abilities
Combat Edge
If a monster has a Combat Edge, the Hero no
longer hits if he ties the monster’s Armor Class
when attacking, but the monster does.
Dark Vision
Simple enough, Monsters with Darkvision are
immune to effects of Darkness.
Diseased
When hit by a monster with disease, the hero must
make a Vigor Check or be infected.
Once infected, the hero gains a threat mark. Also,
the hero must make a Vigor Check at the end of
each future turn. If failed, the hero takes one hit.
If the check is passed by three, the disease passes
and no longer effects the hero. However, the
threat marker stays.
Disarm
If Monster hits, Hero must make a Dexterity check.
If failed, Hero drops any equipped weapon. Hero
may use an action to pick it up.
Doomed
Monsters that are Doomed are sent to Oblivion
instead of Limbo once defeated.
Drain
When a monster with drain hits, the Hero
permanently loses 1 Vigor and gains a threat
mark. If monster hits by three or more, Hero loses
2 Vigor instead. The Hero can only gain one threat
mark in a combat.
If Hero’s Vigor ever drops to zero or below, Hero’s
spirit vanishes to nothingness and dies. Allies never
guard against drain attacks.
Dual Wield
This monster attacks twice a turn. If the Hero has
a dexterity of 6 or greater, this ability is negated.
Durable
This monster roll twice for Armor Checks and
takes the best result.
Escape
When down to its last hit point, monster will not
attack and instead make an Armor Check. If passed,
restock Monster.
Fire Breath
Before combat, make and Agility Check. If failed by
three, Hero takes a hit and must make a successful
Vigor Check or die.
Hordes
This monster card represents more than one of the
same monster.
Treat combat with a horde just as you would any
other monster. As hordes take damage, they become
less effective. Whenever a horde takes damage, both
its TWAC and Armor Class go down by one for each
point of health removed.
Haste
Creatures or heroes with haste get two actions on
theirturn.
Initiative
Monsters that are listed with Initiative always attack
first instead of the Hero.
Last Licks
Monsters noted with last licks always get a last attack
before they die.
Lightbane
Monsters with Lightbane gain +2 TWAC and Armor
Class if either the Hero or an Ally has Holy Power.
Lunge
Monster attacks before the Hero on the first turn at
+2 TWAC.
Magic Resistance
When casting a spell or scroll, caster gets -3 to
Intellect against this monster.
Poison
When monster with poison hits, the hero gains a
threat mark. Hero must also make a Vigor Check
for each threat marker on the hero. Each failed
check results in the Hero taking a hit.

Raise the Alarm

At the end of the third combat turn, if the Monster

has not been defeated, it raises the alarm.

Once the alarm is raised, no guards may be bribed,

and no false papers may be used for the rest of
the adventure. But most important, all monsters
gain Initiative.

Slow Starter

Monsters with Slow Starter skip their first turn.

Turn Immunity

This monster cannot be turned.

Unholy Enemy

If the Hero, or the Hero’s Allies, have Holy Power,

Monster gains +2 TWAC and lose -2 Armor Class.

Vampire Bite

When monster hits, the hero must make a Vigor

Check. If failed, the hero gains a threat marker. If
this is the Hero’s third threat marker, the hero
turns into a Vampiric Thrall and the game is over.
 Card Terms Holy Power

When a hero has holy power, the hero may

There are certain terms you will hear when
reading the adventure cards.
Passing Cards
When you pass a card, it means you may place
the card in Limbo without encountering it.
Reroll
Sometimes a Hero can avoid fate by getting to
reroll a bad die or roll altogether. If the reroll is
taken, the next result is the final result. You may
never reroll a reroll.
Restock
When you are told to restock cards, take the
number of cards told from Limbo and shuffle
them back onto the top deck of the quest deck. If
the top deck is finished and only the bottom deck
remains, restock the cards in the bottom deck.
substitute his normal attack to attempt to
outright banish an undead or demon monster
once per combat.
Each Undead monster has a turning level
depending on their level.
Level 1: 12 (automatic)
Level 2: 9
Level 3: 6
Level 4: 3
Level 5: 0 (impossible)
Roll d10. If the number rolled is equal or less
than the monster’s turning number, send the
monster to Limbo. If you make the roll by five,
send the card to Oblivion instead.

Skipping Cards

When told to skip cards, take the number of

cards you are told to skip and, without looking at
them, place them in Limbo.

Arcane Knowledge

Certain items are easier to use, or can only be

used, by someone who possesses this skill.

quite right about this Inn. Soon, they realize that
they are not at the Inn at all.

the entire time back to the village. He swears he
has seen the wyrm the other day. Knowing his
village would be doomed, he wanted to find Korr,
not for his armor, but for his Krakenlance.
Although not made to slay dragons, it would be
best edge the village had upon the wyrm’s
eventual arrival.

He insists on going back for it. The hero and

Sheja agree to accompany him.

The Hero starts with Olavv and Sheja.

Place the Krakenlance in the Bottom Deck.

If Veynoth is encountered, the wyrm only fights

until it takes damage, then it will fly off into
Oblivions for the quest.

If the Hero finds the Krakenlance, the quest is

complete.

8) Scouting the Lair

Although Sheja has confidence that her father is
right that Veynoth is near, she does not believe
the old man is the scout he used to be. She wants
to head out on her own to scout the dragon’s
lair. Again, the Hero accompanies her.

Take Veynoth out of the quest. Place the Ruins

of Narr in the Bottom Deck.

Vernoth’s lair is close to the Ruins of Narr. If the

Hero can find the Ruins of Narr, the quest is
complete.

Now that the lair of Veynoth has been scouted,
the time is now to strike! There cannot be any
delay!

Place Veynoth in the Bottom Deck.

The Hero starts with the Krakenlance, Sheja,

Olavv, a potion of minor healing and a potion of
major healing.

The quest is complete if Veynoth is vanquished.

Victory is even sweeter if everyone survives.

C2: Ruins of Narr
1) Trap Mechanic
The Hero has been hired by Aerendar, Prince of
Narr, to help him claim his crown hidden deep
within in the Ruins of Narr. If he can take crown,
he can lead his people once more.

Dishonored, Aerendar will feel at ease after this
first one is taken care of.

out. The ancient enemy of Narr, the snake
Korathh.
Centuries of ancestral rage fill Aerendar’s bones
as he swears, he will cut Koratth down.
Place Korathh in the Bottom Deck.

Narr is up to the Hero.
C3: Cathedral of the
Celestial
1) Elemental Evil
The Barbarian Warrior is out of place in these
halls of such “higher” power. However, the
distrust for magic is great within the soul of the
warrior. The abomination such as elementals will
not be tolerated.
Remove Ammundi the Forever and the Chimera
from the quest.
Place one elemental in the Top Deck and the
other in the Bottom deck.

Celestial in the Bottom Deck.
If the Hero can defeat the Celestial, the quest is

their will is abhorrent to the Barbarian Warrior.

from the quest.
Place the Retired Gladiator in the Top Deck.
Place The Way Out in the Bottom Deck.

“higher power” but are capable only of depravity
in the eyes of the Hero. The Hero swears to rid
the world of their ghastly experiments.

from the quest.
Place the Chimera in the Bottom Deck.
If the Chimera is defeated, the quest is complete.

Hero decides to contact The One for both a
blessing and counsel.

6) Dark Nemesis
The One counsels the Hero of a greater threat
than the entirety of the celestial experiments. The
One warns of the return of Ammundi the
Forever.
The Celestials have been trying to raise him
through their experimentation. Normally, he
would draw power from his own undead
creations. However, the celestials have attempted
to recreate the necromantic force powers
through their abominations.
The Hero must find Ammundi the Forever and
cast him down before he can escape. He will for
certain cause another plague of undead if he
does.
Place Ammundi the Forever in the Bottom Deck.
Place all entities in the Top Deck.
If the Hero can reach Ammundi the Forever, the
quest is complete. There is no combat. The Hero

Ammundi the Forever. The Hero has pledged
their life to deal with this threat.

Place Ammundi the Forever on top of the deck.

Ammundi the Forever normally gets +1 Hit Point

for every Undead in Limbo plus one. Here, due
to the celestial experiments, he also gains a Hit
Point for every Demon in Limbo. If the Chimera
is in Limbo, Ammundi the Forever gains +2 Hit
Points.

If the Obelisk of Fate is encountered, make a

Intellect Check. If passed, Hero thinks that the
Obelisk is connect to Ammundi, and destroys it.
If so, Ammundi loses one Hit Point (1 minimum).

If The One is encountered, Hero may make a Wit

Check. If successful, Hero convinces The One to
interfere. If so, Ammundi loses one Hit Point (1
minimum).

If the Hero has the Onyx Necklace and comes

across the Sacrificial Brazier, Hero may sacrifice
the Onyx necklace to Oblivion. If so, Ammundi
loses one Hit Point (1 minimum).

Deck (cannot be restocked due to lack of cards),
the quest is complete.
I1: Zoltar’s Sanctuary
1) Magic Raid
Zoltar the Heretic is known for his vast
knowledge of the Arcane. He is also known to be
petty and cruel. Although the Wizard wishes to
be alone, this is not necessarily by choice.

Mirrors in the Top Deck.

Hero and they decide to investigate. After all,
they made it this far.

Efreet of the Jinn from the quest.
Place the Preserved Wizard in the Bottom Deck.
If the Hero encounters the Preserved Wizard, the
quest is complete.
5) A Wizard’s Revenge
The disembodied head has been in the jar for so
long, they do not even remember their name.
Zoltar, however, they remember with fire. For it
was he who placed them here.
The wizard grants the Hero the information that
an Efreet is in the Sanctuary. If the Hero can
trick the Efreet with logic, the Demon will fight
along his side and they could defeat Zoltar.
In response to why the Hero would want to do
such a thing, the wizard mentions that Zoltar
already knew of the Hero’s presence the moment
they came in. The head looks toward an empty
jar like his own. The Hero understand they have
little choice.

from the Quest.
Place Efreet of the Jinn in the Bottom Deck.
If the Hero can bind the Efreet of the Jinn to
them, the quest is complete. Because of the
Preserved Wizard’s hints, the Hero only has to
make the Intellect Check once to bind the Efreet
of the Jinn to them and only one Intellect Check
to keep it.
If the Hero fails the Intellect Check, the Hero can
try again after they defeat the Jinn. If that
attempt fails, the Efreet of the Jinn regains one
Hit Point and combat starts over. Repeat this
process until the Hero succeeds at controlling the
Efreet of the Jinn.
6) Confronting Zoltar
“You were amusing at first.” A voice bounces off
the walls. “However, I have become bored of
your entertainment. I see you had a nice
conversation with my protégé. Good. You will be
talking to him for a long time to come.” A door
slams behind the Hero. The Hero musters their
courage and ventures forth.
Place Zoltar the Heretic in the Bottom Deck.

The Hero starts with Efreet of the Jinn as an ally.

If the Hero can defeat Zoltar, the quest is

complete.
I2: Caves of
Dey’Lithia

story, the Hero is immediately hired for the job.

know where it burrowed last.

As the remains of the Scolopendra are removed,
a Well-Travelled Dwarf seems uneasy. He says he
senses something he has not felt in decades.
When asked if it more of the giant insects, he
responds that it is not. It is something far more
sinister.
The dwarf convinces the town to hire the Hero to
go with him deeper into the tunnels burrowed by
the enormous creatures. The dwarf is so
convinced of the threat, that he is willing to go
without pay.
Remove Scolopendra, Dire Centipedes, all
Stradiir, all Dey’Lithians, Tennekoth, Dey’Lithia,

an ally.
If the Hero can find The Special Entrance, the
quest is complete.
4) A Deeper Threat
The Hero looks at the Entrance a cannot place
where it comes from. The Dwarf however has a
stern look that conveys familiarity.
“It is of Dey’Lithian origin.”, he says. “Have they
been this close to us this entire time?”, his voice
grows coarse. “This is not something we can
ignore. We must confront this now. We cannot
risk going back to town for these foul enchanters
to unleash hell upon the world. I promise you
gold enough as I know you have not been hired
to go further, but there are riches to be had
inside that will make your previous payments
seem as they do not exist.”
The Hero finds the dwarf’s argument convincing.
They open the door and go inside.

Dey’Lithians, Tennekoth, Dey’Lithia,

here.”

for more battles as they go through the special
door.
Remove Scolopendra, Dire Centipedes,
Tennekoth, and Dey’Lithia from the quest.
Place A Special Entrance in the Bottom Deck.

an ally. complete.

If the Hero can reach A Special Entrance, the

quest is complete.

6) Tennekoth
“Gods above!” the dwarf tries catches his breath.
“That’s the symbol for Tennekoth on that door. I
thought I killed him. I was sure of it! Damned my
arrogance! I will not make the same mistake
twice!”

The dwarf does not give the Hero a choice not to

open the door.

The dwarf collapses against the wall. The Hero
goes to check on him only to find that nothing
can be done. The dwarf looks at the Hero, who is
more than comfortable with the result.

“Tennekoth is no more. This is my penance for

my overconfidence. I can live, or die, with that.”,
the dwarf says as he passes.

The Hero prepares to leave as they feel earth

moving all around them. It is not an earthquake,
however. It feels…like it is moving with a
purpose.

As the Hero goes out the door they came in, the
Hero notices the original path is now blocked off.
A new trail is fresh earth forms a new route.

Someone, someone powerful, is beckoning the

Hero forward. The Hero has little choice but to

Pannegoth, all Satyrians (name in title), Skull
Collectors, and The Altar from the quest.

and Necroscrys, the quest is complete.
2) The Otherworld
Among the bodies of the fallen, the Hero finds
evidence of their deepest fears. The cultists have
ripped open a portal to the Otherworld.
The Hero prepares themselves to defeat those
behind this. Obvious to the Hero, there must be a
Scroll of Oblivion’s Reach that assisted in
opening the portal.

them. They know they must not simply use the
scroll near their blasphemous altar to close the
rift but must perform the written ritual on the
other side of it to do so. The Hero, with slight
hesitation, steels themselves as they charge
forward.

Elemental, Madness Blade, Noggoloth,

actions is felt. The finality of it assured. There is
no going back.

Pannegoth from the quest.
Place The Way Out in the Bottom Deck.

forward. However, ahead of them, a choice will
have to be made.

quest.

Fire Giant, and Fire Elemental, Potion of Major
Healing, Madness Blade, and The Way Out in
separate piles. These piles represent the Eight
Doors.

cards into Oblivion.

they will then choose one of the Eight Doors.

complete. Otherwise, resolve the card.
Afterward, try again. Continue until The Way Out
is found.
6) Pannegoth
The Hero moves through the door only to fall to
their knees in horror as there seems as if there is
nothing all around them. They slowly feel less
disoriented as they realize it is because of the
transparent walls and floors that surround the
area.
Place Pannegoth to the side. Shuffle all the cards
and place them in stacks of 8. Send the
remaining cards to Oblivion. Place the deck in
rows of two.

Also, since the walls and floors are transparent,

the Hero may see ahead of them for a short
distance. Starting with the bottom row, flip over
three cards keeping the order as the Hero would
encounter them.

The Hero may now make a choice of which path

the wish to take. Either the left pile, or the right.
Take the path not chosen and send those to
Oblivion.

Play the chosen row as normal, encountering the

cards in the normal order. As one card is
resolved, draw a new card from the deck face up
so that you can always see three cards ahead for
that pile.

Once the pile is complete. Repeat the process

with the next row. Reveal three cards from each
row and have the Hero choose a pile to go
through, discarding the other to Oblivion.

Once four pile are complete, encounter

Pannegoth.

If the Hero defeats Pannegoth, the quest is

complete.
Final Thoughts
As much as I would have been happy to just have
the first Kickstater complete the Dungeonrunner
games, this take it one step further and
completes the similitude of the old D&D BEMCI
structure.

I was extremely glad to make so many more

cards because this adds so many ways to make
new adventures for all of you.

I never wanted it to be a sales pitch, which I why

I never mentioned it, but this project started
when my best friend Kevin (on right) and I,
started Powercell Games a long time ago and
had our first boardgame convention in Erie, PA.
Kevin passed away just three months before the
game was promoted on Kickstarter. He would be
glad to see it in its completed form.

But here we are now, with 15 decks all complete

and solid. We are blessed to have been able to get
them all done so players can make their own
adventures and play a complete campaign.
Although we were happy enough to get two done,
getting the whole vision complete is amazing!

If you have any ideas, questions, find a typo, or

even come up with a better way to word
something, please contact us at;

powercellgames@gmail.com
(...check out those sexy gamer mullets!)
Again, on behalf of all of us. Thank you!
We actually started it because we had just made
Dungeonrunner (then, a "turn by mail" choose
your own adventure. We wanted to promote it.
Funny enough, the convention was more popular
than the game itself at the time. We went on to
create many more conventions.

However, creating Dungeonrunner into a card

game came about when our friend and main DM,
Sean passed away. We were drunk as hell and
started thinking up ways to create a card game
and get Dungeonrunner going again. You are
seeing the end result of this effort, decades later.

Small print runs were not an option back in the

90's. We sure as hell didn't have the cash. So we
used $800-ish that we didn't have to spend
getting this "beggars copy" of the game made.
(and only TWO decks at that!)

It sure did not look pro, but it was ours and the
game was solid. Rules-wise, nothing much has
changed from that version years ago to the one
you are about to get in your hands. We were
especially proud of the gimmicky "Double Die of
DOOM!"
