Relaxing in Hinterberg

So far, we’ve told you all about the fast-paced side of Dungeons of Hinterberg: exploring dungeons, fighting monsters, being a social butterfly. But sometimes, you just need to take a step back and chill. In fact, in Hinterberg, it’s encouraged – we’re all about balance here. Relaxing is an important part of any holiday and will even make you a better slayer!

In the village, you will have the opportunity to explore solo. You could take in a film at the Kino – there’s always something new to see, and certain films might even help you later in your journey…

Or maybe you want to make the most of that fresh Alpine air! You could always go for a peaceful trip on the lake by renting a boat and taking in the beautiful village from afar. Or you can grab a drink and unwind on the terrace of your hotel, overlooking the village and listening to the merriment down below you.

Maybe you'd prefer relaxation in the classic sense and would benefit from a trip to the spa, chilling out in the hot tub!

There are also chances to loosen up outside of the village. If you’re deep in the forest, you might just stumble across a cosy cushion just begging you to get comfy and meditate for the afternoon!

We want to make sure that while you’re having the slaycation of a lifetime in Hinterberg, you’re also taking some time for yourself! This balance is just one of the ways you can become an even more remarkable slayer!

Making new friends in the Alps!

Hey everyone! We thought it was about time we showed you a deeper dive into the social side to our gameplay! In this new trailer, we explore a day in the life of Luisa, what she gets up to and who she meets

Watch the Trailer Here!



You will begin each day at your guest house in the heart of Hinterberg. From here, you will decide which biome to visit for the day – each environment is unique and presents different magic skills to master, along with unique dungeons and challenges.

Once you’ve made your way to your chosen biome, your first goal will likely be to find a dungeon to tackle. Whichever path you choose, you should be prepared, as the serene-looking environments will present you with many challenges; most of these can be overcome by using your sword, magic, and puzzling skills - but some might require the help of friends.



This is where the social side of the game comes in. Hinterberg’s newfound fame as a magical slaying destination has brought colourful tourists and adventurers from all over the world to the village and has turned it into a bustling hotspot filled with things to do and places to hang out.



Each evening, you can decide to spend some quality time with one person. If you successfully deepen your relationship, you will be rewarded: Having trouble finding a dungeon? See if you can find someone who made it through and how they gained access. Monster too tough to beat? Why not seek out a pro slayer to learn a new special attack, visit Hannah’s smithy and be rewarded with powerful sword enchantments. Or maybe you just want to befriend the village dog because he’s so cute!



Building strong relationships adds a touch of magic to your journey and holds the key to becoming a formidable slayer!
