Crypto Raiders: A Pixel Art RPG Dungeon Crawler on Polygon

Crypto Raiders is a pixel art RPG dungeon crawler built on the Polygon (MATIC) sidechain for Ethereum. With so many dungeon crawler mobile apps rising in popularity, it's difficult to compare any one game to Crypto Raiders, but the basic mechanics for the genre as a whole remain the same:

Enter dungeons

Kill bad dudes

Find sweet loot

Get new gear

Tackle harder dungeons

???

Profit
Where things get interesting is the "???" part, as that's when most dungeon crawlers try to put their own "stamp" on the genre.

Crypto Raiders distinguishes itself from its peers by allowing players to participate in both sides of the dungeon crawler experience. More active players can use "Raiders" to collect loot from dungeons, but anyone looking for passive gains can also acquire "Mobs" which serve as the enemies for Raiders in dungeons. If your Mob defeats another player's Raider, you'll earn loot based on the value and equipment of that Raider.
