You can now skip the automatic loading of the previously saved game. This might be neccessary if your game is for some reason broken and you need to access the main menu again. Of course, bugs shouldn't occur but it always helps to have an option :-)
Lootbox is a niche product and was born out of the need to have a casual dungeon crawler to hand when the bus journey gets too boring. I used it to fulfil my desire to collect XP and items and develop my player character - without perma-death and without real-time elements*. Since the game became available for PC and macOS, five people have left a review for Lootbox on Steam and I would like to…
- various bugfixes - added AntiStun effect to Ring of Authority - added 6th tier to War set - new sprites (esp. for fishes) - added AntiLeech to Vampire - added several recipes - added several new items (see wiki) - added particle effects - added mushrooms to the fairy forest
We are about to release version 2.0. It will take a few months until all the content is complete, but I still have the capacity to integrate your ideas and wishes into the game. What do you like so far, what don't you like so much, what would you like to change and what would you like to see integrated into the game? Give me your feedback - just click on the speech bubble below this message and…

Ever wondered how the content is created for a game - at least for my game? Internally I am using a SQLITE Database, which can easily be modified by a tool like "DB Browser for SQLite". But it cannot easily show the relations between items, enemies and scripts. WARNING! HEAVY SPOILERS AHEAD! The following screenshots will show you not only my content tool, but of course content. That means you…
If you want to try out the latest build of the game and you use MacOS for gaming, you can now do so by switching to the experimental branch. A ton of changes awaits. This is in preparation of chapter two, which will come with one of the next updates. In addition, Steam players will now get 10 hotslots (mobile users get 6).
Lootbox RPG takes part in the Steam spring sale. A big 85% OFF! A good reason to descend into the depths of the dungeons and grind for some treasure chests...
By popular demand, I have written a script that transfers all known spells, items and creatures to a wiki. You will find all items with their most important stats, all spells with their runes and all creatures with their combat stats as well as their loot tables. And yes - the loot chance is included. Enjoy! And feel free to discuss the wiki. Of course you can register for free and help improvi…
Here we go: - added some more informational texts for new players that will help learn the game (e.g. "use the torch in your first hotslot to make light"). - Buff Info now has an "OK" button so that you won't cancel it by accident. - Added day and night cycle to the overworld. - Added Defense Potion. - Adjusted the Grimoire: you will now learn the spell even if you can't cast it yet. - New: The…

This update brings you really cool features: - You can now combine Poison with a weapon to give it a poison effect. - New Spells! Move to (random) trap (even is it is not yet revealed), Move to Exit, Summon Reaper. - New item "Grimoire" which will teach you a new random spell. Enjoy!
- When you try to leave the gravelord's chamber, it is no longer checked if you have the runeboard. This might help with problems leaving the level. - In addition, the Gravelord now drops the Novice Runeboard. - Different other minor bugfixes. Enjoy!
- Added a spell that lets you revive daddy (if he was killed before): Power 3, Body, Fire, Destruction. - Returned daddy to his spawn point when he killed you.
With today's patch, you will be able to sort your inventory. Just click and hold the inventory icon on your character screen. Cool, isn't it? In addition, the zombie mode has gotten some enhancements. You will now try to use magic spells to light your surroundings or open locked chests - if you don't have a torch/lamp/key in your inventory. And there's another QoL enhancement: a small check is…
Between October 25th and November 1st you have the chance of looting a magic pumpkin from your enemies. After using it, you will get a greatly enhanced autoattack (aka Zombie-Mode) buff that can help you grind your way down to the depths of the Lootbox dungeons. Enjoy your new powers and perhaps save one or two of those pumpkins for later use.
Upon completing your first task you will find yourself thrown into goblin caves. And you will begin to loot runes (and runeboards). What are these for? Runes can be combined to cast spells. There are three runes that set the power level of a spell, and eight runes that determine the effect of a spell. You will find a magic guide over on the official forums: You can even cast a spell on your pet…
You don't have to quit the game via Alt+F4 or Cmd+Q any longer. If you really want to pause from this excellent game, you just can hit "Quit" in the settings menu ;-) Your progress will be saved. In addition, the cursor was modified, fixing problems when scrolling in your inventory or spell list. Still working on improving the keyboard commands - but this will take some time...
Published a small update with a fix for Windows Users having problems starting the game. (The sqlite3.dll was replaced)
