Once Upon A Tile

Short description

Once Upon A Tile is a rogue-lite strategic dungeon-builder, where you don't control the hero! Instead, you cleverly place dungeon tiles to guide your hero to victory - or to their demise, if you are careless. You will need to be tricky and clever in this dungeon-building puzzle game!

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $17.99 launch price — there is not enough price history for this game to weight the copies by what they actually sold for. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
