Crypt Sweeper

About the Game

Crypt Sweeper is a brand new spooky puzzle game for the Game Boy Advance. It is available in physical format (GBA cart), and digital download for emulators and systems capable of playing ROM files (PC, RetroPie, Analogue Pocket, etc).

Death has discovered a loophole in their contract: no humans means no job - and early retirement! Battle monsters strategically placed across a haunted graveyard, uncover enemy patterns, and and foil Death’s twisted plan to end humanity.

The game blends the classic puzzle mechanics of Minesweeper with RPG-inspired progression. Players explore a tile-based graveyard, carefully revealing squares to identify hidden monsters. Defeating monsters earns experience points to level up, but strategic planning is crucial, as each encounter costs health points.

Features

• Minesweeper-inspired combat
• Strategic gameplay: uncover monster patterns and manage HP/EXP
• Multiple enemy types with unique and subtle behavior
• Five difficulty levels, each with special victory scenes
• Unlock secrets, collect hidden books, and discover alternative challenges
• Charming pixel-art graphics and quirky humor
• In-game tutorial helps new players quickly master the mechanics
