QRusader Launches, Turns QR Codes Into Dungeons

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 14,2026
  • QRusader is a newly launched fantasy dungeon crawler game
  • Its unique feature? You create levels by scanning QR codes
  • Experience virtually endless procedurally generated dungeons, complete with loot, enemies, and competitive leaderboard challenges

We frequently receive intriguing pitches for upcoming game releases. However, even I was somewhat taken aback to learn that Ben Timperio, formerly a writer for YouTube phenomenon MrBeast, has entered the mobile gaming space. His creation, QRusader, brings an innovative approach to augmented reality gaming and is now available on mobile devices!

As the name suggests, QRusader offers a fantasy adventure with a distinctive twist. Every QR code you scan in the real world transforms into its own procedurally generated dungeon - complete with valuable loot, dangerous enemies, and competitive leaderboard challenges - that your charming little crusader must navigate.

While the graphics may not match Unreal Engine quality, QRusader undoubtedly compensates with its delightful character designs and vibrant environments. With the potential to explore what amounts to an infinite number of levels (limited only by the QR codes you encounter in daily life), the game offers substantial content for players to enjoy.

Absolutely QRazy!

It's no surprise that QRusader appears so well-polished at launch. This level of refinement makes perfect sense given the quality of Timperio's previous work. While some might dismiss claims about this being a revolutionary release, there's no denying it's exceptionally well-crafted.

With its straightforward movement and gameplay mechanics, I'm curious to see how it will appeal to dungeon-crawling enthusiasts. The real test will be whether the QR code integration maintains player engagement over time. However, with thoughtful additions like competitive leaderboard challenges for completionist players, the game stands a genuine chance of long-term success.
