About the Game

Ascend and Fall is a dark-fantasy autobattler where the order of your spells determines the outcome. Choose your hero, battle monsters for loot, discover new spells, then duel real players and watch your sequence play out. Sequence your magic right, and rise while they fall.

Your spell order matters. Aim for synergistic combos, stack debuffs, heal up to stay alive, or go for big damage bursts. Lock in your spell rotation and watch the fight auto-resolve, spell by spell. Choosing the right spells to cast at the right time makes the difference between life and death.

Choose one of four heroes, each with a set of signature spells to choose from. Select your loadout and discover 35+ spells across your encounters with multiple tiers to unlock for each. Every hero plays differently, with one to match every playstyle.​

Your health and mana don't reset between fights; they carry through the whole climb. Every monster you hunt for loot is a wager, and every fight you take is a risk. Do you use your resources early for greater rewards, or save them for the rival waiting in the arena?
