Well Dweller Quick Answers
The questions players ask most about Well Dweller.
How many bosses does Well Dweller have?
The developer counted 13 bosses or boss-style sequences across 15 main biomes. The free demo only names one of them, The Groundskeeper, so the rest of the list is filled in from the published achievement list and post-launch guides.
Who is the first boss in Well Dweller?
The Groundskeeper is the first boss, at the end of Night Garden before you enter the Hunter's Cabin. Defeating it awards the Dark Garden achievement.
Does Well Dweller have a boss rush?
Yes - a boss rush and time-trial replays are reported as post-game challenge content. We list it as reported rather than tested until a run is recorded on this site.
