Strategic MAZE dungeon crawl, fighting easy monsters for 120 levels focusing on making it through each maze in the least amount moves (killing the least amount of monsters as possible and not unlocking all the doors). Treasure earned at the end of each level depending on stars earned. Treasures earned are converted into artifacts. Last two achievements making 20 and 30 artifacts is a grind. Another FUN Jetdogs...

Mobile like experience pretty much. Click on tiles to defeat enemies and grind XP, collect loot and generally waste time on clicking here and there.
