A dungeon is a type of map that mainly appears in RPG games, and often refers to an underground labyrinth. Dungeons are depicted as dangerous areas full of monsters and hidden treasure. They take many forms, such as caves, man-made structures, forests, and mountain paths.
A dungeon crawl is a type of scenario in fantasy role-playing games in which heroes navigate a labyrinth environment (a "dungeon"), battling various monsters, avoiding traps, solving puzzles, and looting any treasure they may find. Video games and board games which predominantly feature dungeon crawl elements are considered to be a genre.
