4 Hands Games has recently unveiled Tormentis, an action RPG now available on Android and PC. After its initial Early Access launch on Steam earlier this year, the studio has now brought this classic dungeon crawling and strategic dungeon-building adventure to mobile devices as a free-to-play experience, with the option for in-app purchases.
Tormentis sets itself apart in the genre by allowing players not only to explore dungeons but also to design them. Your challenge is to craft an intricate labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and surprises to safeguard your treasures from other adventurers. Simultaneously, you'll venture into dungeons created by other players, overcoming their defenses to claim valuable rewards.
As you enter battle, your hero's equipment plays a crucial role in your strategy. Using loot obtained from your past adventures, you can equip powerful gear that unlocks unique abilities. Unneeded items can be traded with other adventurers through an auction house or direct barter system.
The dungeon-building aspect of Tormentis allows you to unleash your creativity. You can link rooms, set traps, and train defenders to create a challenging fortress. However, you must first complete your own dungeon to ensure its effectiveness before unleashing it on other players.

Unlike its PC version, which operates on a one-time purchase model, the mobile version of Tormentis is free-to-play but includes ads. For those seeking an uninterrupted experience, there's an option to remove ads with a one-time purchase, ensuring a fair gameplay environment free from pay-to-win elements.
