11 itemsAbout the Game
Balladrion is a 3D rogue-lite action RPG set in a magical fairytale world. Every map has its own mechanics, every biome its own enemies and every attempt its own story. Gather resources, upgrade your town, control your blessings and figure out what works.
Combat never lets you breathe. Waves of enemies, events, merchants and abilities hit all at once. Combine skills on the fly and get ready for every minute to be harder than the last.
Every biome and every map is unique with its own missions, challenges and enemies. Discover new possibilities and sharpen your strategy, adapting to new difficulties that force you to plan and improvise. No two runs ever feel the same.
Upgrade your skills, armor, bows, potions, abilities and much more. Every upgrade increases your chances of survival.
Boons are the heart of every attempt. Experiment with combinations, build a style that fits you and find out how far it takes you before it all falls apart.
Between fights gather wood, stone, herbs, glacialite, infernite and other mystical resources. Craft, upgrade your gear and unlock things you cannot get any other way.
