Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Rust Bucket is a turn based dungeon crawler that is built with mobile in mind. Game play is fast and death is never far away so it’s perfect for your daily commute. Swipe to take a step, swipe into enemies to attack. It’s as simple as that, but don’t be fooled into thinking this is a casual game! Explore an endless dungeon with more to discover the deeper you go. Many enemy types each with their own distinctive rule set to overcome. - Make your way through the levels to become a fully qualified looter. - Turn based traps. - Puzzle your way past traps or use them to catch enemies! - Explore numerous dungeon themes to reach the top scoring rooms. - Compete against your friends on Game Center to get the best score! - Coming Soon: Puzzle levels and more Endless Mode content. - This is just the beginning! Free to Play: The game is completely free to play but because we like to eat and pay bills and stuff we use advertising to monetise the experience. There are no boosters to pay for or timers to wait for, just the occasional ad. "But I don’t like ads!" You are in luck, through the wonders of in-app purchases we are able to offer a way to remove the immersion blockers from the game for a one-off fee. Cross-promotion ads for Nitrome's other games will not be removed by the Remove Ads in-app purchase. We hope you enjoy our little game. If you do please consider giving us a nice review, tell your friends and maybe try some of our other games.
