Arcuz Treasure Hunters is a fantasy JRPG adventure that throws you into trap-filled dungeons with a crew of hired heroes. Think classic turn-based combat meets treasure-hunting obsession. You'll solve puzzles, dodge traps, and assemble a squad of specialists to crack open underground mazes packed with loot. It's part strategy, part gacha collection, and fully automated when you need it to be.
Easy to grasp, tough to optimize. The real skill is in team composition and knowing when to explore versus when to grind.
Designed for mobile but fully playable on desktop browsers.
Start by hiring heroes from the collection menu. Each hero has a star-based rarity system (higher stars = stronger base stats). You've got 30 roster slots total, so choose specialists—some heroes excel at dealing damage, others tank hits or buff the squad. Equip them through the Hero screen by dragging gear into slots and hit "Enhance" to boost stats using gold.
Select a region from the Auguz Continental world map (yes, there's a typo—embrace it). Main story dungeons have fixed layouts with hidden passages you unlock by solving environmental puzzles and interacting with scene components. Search every corner. Traps reset progress if you rush blindly. Randomly generated dungeons appear after clearing story nodes—these offer bonus loot but unpredictable enemy setups.
Turn-based side-scrolling battles pit your three active heroes against waves of enemies. Watch the Rounds counter and combo Hit tracker in the top corner. Use the Auto toggle to let the AI handle basic fights, or manually activate skills for boss encounters. You win by depleting enemy HP bars before your Mana and health run dry. Bosses hit hard, so spread healing items across your squad beforehand.
Perfect for JRPG fans who love the loot grind but don't have hours to micro-manage every battle. The Auto mode makes it ideal for short sessions during commutes, while the puzzle-heavy dungeons reward players who dig deeper into exploration. If you grew up on Final Fantasy and now need games that respect your time, this nails it.
It feels like flipping through a nostalgic JRPG playbook with modern shortcuts. Combat flows smoothly thanks to the x2 speed option, and the turn-based rhythm lets you think without pressure. Exploration moments break up the grind—deciphering trap sequences or spotting hidden levers adds just enough brain-work to stay engaged. The randomized dungeons inject chaos when the main story gets predictable. Visually, the retro sprite work keeps framerates high and loading times instant, so you're never waiting for the action.
1. Saves: Progress saves automatically through Playgama's cloud system, so you can switch devices mid-dungeon without losing your squad setup.
2. Performance: Runs buttery-smooth at 60 FPS even in crowded boss fights. The lightweight Unity engine and minimalist 2D assets mean zero lag on browsers.
A solid comfort-food JRPG that won't blow your mind but will devour your free time if you let it.
