Currently, players can pick between three campaigns in Demeo, with plans for further campaigns to release in future months. Each match is made up of three levels, including two dungeon puzzles and a boss level, and takes about two hours to complete. To progress through the dungeons, players take turns performing actions for movement, attacks, items, and spells.
