Play Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot on Windows PC

Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot on PC is a roguelike auto-battler about leading a small but increasingly specialized legion of dwarves through escalating waves of enemies. You are not directly controlling attacks once a battle begins; instead, your role is to make the decisions that determine whether your squad survives. Before each encounter, you recruit and customize up to ten unique dwarves, consider their individual classes, stats, and abilities, arrange their positions, manage your available resources, and choose upgrades that support the team you are building. The battles then play out automatically, turning preparation into the game’s central test. A tank may be needed to absorb pressure, while assassins, healers, and mages can provide different ways to damage, sustain, or shape the fight. The important question is not simply which dwarf is strongest, but how the members of your formation work together and whether your choices prepare them for the threats ahead.

That preparation feeds directly into the game’s roguelike loop. Each run presents a fresh challenge, with unpredictable enemies, selectable rewards, and the opportunity to push deeper in pursuit of greater treasures. After encounters, you gather weapons, armor, and accessories, then use that equipment to upgrade your heroes, craft new builds, and test combinations that may create a more effective strategy. Every item and formation choice can decide whether the next battle ends in triumph or a total wipeout, so collecting gear is also an exercise in adapting your plan rather than simply accumulating power. Orcs, trolls, dragons, and other monsters provide different enemy types to assess as the run progresses, encouraging you to evolve your squad instead of relying on one fixed setup. Failure is part of the intended progression: even a defeated run can unlock new dwarves, skills, and permanent upgrades, giving future attempts more possibilities while preserving the tension of deciding how far to press your luck.

On PC, a larger display gives you more room to read the battlefield and compare the many factors behind an automatic fight. You can more comfortably inspect the different classes, stats, abilities, and equipment of up to ten dwarves while deciding whether a new weapon, piece of armor, or accessory improves the build you are assembling. The extra screen space is also useful when arranging a formation and reviewing the enemy situation before committing to a battle, particularly when you are balancing tanks, assassins, healers, and mages rather than treating the squad as a single unit. Keyboard-and-mouse input suits the repeated planning actions at the heart of each run: the mouse can make selecting recruits, rewards, upgrades, and gear feel direct, while keyboard shortcuts, where supported by the PC version, can make navigating menus and handling repeated choices more convenient. The result is a clear format for players who enjoy tactical thinking without manual attack commands—each battle is automatic, but every meaningful advantage comes from the decisions made before it starts. With one-tap simplicity paired with build experimentation, resource management, escalating encounters, and permanent progression, the game focuses on the satisfying challenge of turning a vulnerable group of dwarves into a coordinated force capable of claiming increasingly valuable loot.
