About The Caretaker - Dungeon Nightshift

Instead of raiding for treasure, you clean up after invading heroes, refill chests, reset traps and feed monsters. Hungry creatures become louder; if they wake the dungeon master, he kills you. The short nights make the order of your chores matter as you work toward freedom.
