Go solo or team up with up to three friends in online co-op for this fast-paced, anime-inspired action roguelike. Master stylish hack and slash combat, craft overpowered builds, and conquer mythological trials to claim the title of the thirteenth Zodiac.

Take on the Trials with a cast of extraordinary animal spirits, each mastering a distinct combat style.
Fox – A lightning-fast swordswoman whose strikes flash like thunder.
Raven – A graceful reaper who commands razor-sharp feathers from above.
