The Steam Summer Sale is here again. And as always, the gaming community has come together to empty their wallets as their most desired games go on sale.
If you’re a fan of dungeon crawling, you’re in luck with this year’s sale. There’s a bevy of wonderful dungeon crawlers seeing serious deals this year. Here are five of the best you can add to your collection for under $10.
Ziggurat
Regular Price: $14.99
Sale Price: $3.74
Ziggurat takes the best qualities of both FPS and roguelikes and combines them together into one great game. Rather than using guns, you use different staffs and spells to blast your way through randomly-generated levels fighting hordes of minions. Check out our Ziggurats review for more info on this one.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
Regular Price: $14.99
Sale Price: $7.49
The Binding of Isaac is a game that needs no introduction. But if you somehow don’t already own this game, now’s the perfect chance. A take on the biblical story of Isaac and Abraham, Isaac’s mother hears a supposed message from God that tells her to sacrifice her son to him. Isaac, hearing this, flees into the caverns under his house to escape the murderous matriarch.

Crypt of the NecroDancer
Regular Price: $14.99
Sale Price: $2.99
Crypt of the NecroDancer is a dungeon crawler with a twist: it’s also a rhythm game. Every action you take is in time with the music, even moving and fighting. As is expected of such a game, the soundtrack is incredible — but if you somehow get bored of its tunes, you can even play to your own music MP3s. Its pixel art is top-notch too, and it’s overall well worth your purchase — especially so now that it’s on sale at a steal of a price.

Victor Vran
Regular Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $9.99
Victor Vran is a title in the vein of favorites like Diablo, in which you and three friends control a party of four characters as you quest together. But where many games in the genre fall back on the age old trope of grinding EXP, Victor Vran instead has a much more open approach by allowing you to set the difficulty of different areas yourself — meaning that you can choose what pace you want to take.
Enter the Gungeon
Regular Price: $14.99
Sale Price: $7.49
For those who like a little more shock and awe in their dungeon crawler, Enter The Gungeon is exactly what the doctor ordered. Taking cues from bullet hell games, Enter The Gungeon is fast-paced, brightly colored, and (as it’s name implies) chock full of guns. You’ll need some pretty good reflexes to get through this one — but if that’s your style, Gungeon is for you.
