Slimes

About

Slimes is a turn-based RPG where you play Julius Anderson, a gruff crusader hired to clear a slime-filled dungeon. Your partner is a magic-afflicted healer whose name Julius refuses to say. Together you battle through procedurally generated floors, using tactical positioning and resource management to survive waves of squishy enemies. Each level escalates in difficulty, pushing you toward the dungeon’s mysterious core while balancing character upgrades and limited healing supplies. The game’s charm comes from its deadpan humor and simple but effective combat loops. Julius’s brusque personality and the healer’s cursed condition create a low-key dynamic that stands out. Though short on story depth, the 2020 release keeps things brisk and focused. With a small but dedicated fanbase, Slimes appeals to players who enjoy tight tactical challenges and retro-style dungeon crawls. The persistent difficulty curve and randomized layouts offer replay value, even if the visuals and dialogue feel a bit rough around the edges.
