Varthos calls you to his side. Fight hordes of monsters and undead creatures in this captivating action RPG, all of whom have only one goal: to kill you. Enter battle in the bodies of fallen heroes—if you fail with one, Varthos will awaken the next warrior for you. Death is only the beginning: die, be reborn, and benefit from the experiences and achievements of your predecessors.

Fight, die, repeat — the battle for the throne of the world has begun.

Features:

- Gripping action RPG with hack'n'slash and rogue-lite elements

- Single and multiplayer modes for up to 3 players

- Directly controlled heroes that can be leveled up without fixed classes

- Randomly generated dungeons

Roguelite Single- & Multiplayer

Alone or together with friends: Fight against evil and use your skills tactically in team battles. Trade items found in multiplayer with your teammates to strengthen the group's combat power.

Unique Character Development

“You are what you wear” — no predefined hero classes, you have complete freedom in how you equip and play your character.

Varied game world

Explore different areas with open landscapes and dungeons. These are randomly generated every time you start a new game.

Direct Controls

Control your hero directly: Instead of using point-and-click to move your character, we rely on WASD for movement as well as precise aiming with the mouse.
