Watch “How to Play: Deck Box Dungeons,” a how-to-play guide for Deck Box Dungeons from IndieGameReviewer.com on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by IndieGameReviewer.com on YouTube:
Enjoyed a solo playthrough of Deck Box Dungeons - an RPG tabletop app-supported dungeon crawler from Ariah Studios, but in this early release/first printing, the rule book leaves a little to be desired. We contacted the developers and got some clarification on some of the rules. In this video we pass those tips on to you, because this is a great game worthy of your time.
Note that at 6:03 - the monsters would move to attack, rather than wait. Monsters can move and attack in the same turn but not attack twice in the same turn.
Also - re Line of Sight for ranged, quba40 on BGG offered this correction:
"I belive that there is an error in this video - range line of sight it's not diagonally or straight, you can shoot in different angles but you have to draw a straight line between one corner of each space." (thank you!)

About Deck Box Dungeons, from BoardGameGeek:
Deck Box Dungeons is a fantasy themed dungeon crawler with a companion app that fits in a deck box.
Each player builds their adventurer by selecting a character card, equipment card, and special abilities card. Builds can range from a standard stealthy rogue with daggers to a mage that wields a greatsword. During the game, players use the companion app to reveal new rooms and encounters which adds to replayability. Players must work together to slay monsters, complete encounters, and achieve the goal of their quest. Each quest has a different goal, from escorting a priest to complete a ritual to killing a giant troll that has been terrorizing a nearby town.
The companion app handles the quests and encounters allowing for quick setup times and streamlined gameplay. Random encounters and quest generation provides variety and replayability even when playing the same adventures. Using an app also allows for gameplay to be re-balanced and additional new content to be added after release.
Note: Using the app is recommended, but print & play quests are also available if you are unable or do not want to use the app.
Designed for 1-2 players, you can play with 1-4 players if you buy a second copy of the game.
