Desktop Dungeons is a single-player roguelike-like puzzle video game developed and published by QCF Design.

The game has qualities of a puzzle as players must find the best methods to use items, spells, and upgrades to reach the final boss without losing too much of their character's health.

[8] The beta featured a significant graphical upgrade from the free alpha version[9] and included a new tutorial system, changes to character progression, player inventory, and an adventuring locker to store items between dungeon runs.

[10] With the changes made for the beta version, Rock, Paper, Shotgun's writer Alec Meer praised, "Desktop Dungeons is now easily the game it always deserved to be.

Eric Farraro, developing under the pseudonym Lazy Peon, created an iPhone game titled League Of Epic Heroes after playing the beta version of Desktop Dungeons.

League of Epic Heroes uses the same mechanics, character classes, spells, and progression system as Desktop Dungeons, but none of the graphics, sound effects, source code, or other game resources.

[4] Following a copyright infringement notice from QCF's lawyers, Farraro removed League of Epic Heroes from the App Store.
