Mystery Dungeon (不思議のダンジョン Fushigi no Dungeon?) is a series of roguelike video games, most of which were developed by Chunsoft, but with select titles in the series developed under license by other companies. Although all games in the series bear the Fushigi no Dungeon moniker somewhere in their Japanese titles, only the Shiren the Wanderer games contain original characters; all others license their characters from other role-playing game franchises.
The first title, Torneko no Daibouken: Fushigi no Dungeon starred Torneko, a shopkeeper character from the same developer's Dragon Quest IV (Chunsoft being developer of the first five games in the Dragon Quest series). Crossover series of Mystery Dungeon titles are the Chocobo no Fushigina Dungeon series (which includes Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon) and the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series.
Mystery Dungeon games are notable for being among the few console games in the roguelike genre. The series has inspired similar titles in Japan, most of which appropriate their games mechanics from Mystery Dungeon, rather than Rogue itself.
Gameplay[edit]
Most of the Mystery Dungeon games center around exploring randomly generated dungeons and fighting monsters in a turn-based environment. Every action consumes a turn, rather than only battles being turn-based, so the movement of the player and monsters occurs in turns, and performing actions such as using items consumes turns as well. When the player's character dies, the character loses everything, except what they have stored in various pre-determined locations along the way, or in special container items.
