About the Game




Sick of other rogue-lites where random generation feels like a joke? Well, welcome to Cryptical Path, where the tables are turned! Forget the capricious whims of procedural dungeons, here, you are the master Architect.




Cryptical Path is not just another rogue-lite, it allows you to build the rooms you want and manipulate the dungeon you are in. It is the first roguelite-builder, where you can express your creativity through thousands of possibilities. Forge your path through meticulously chosen rooms, sculpting an adventure that reflects your distinctive style and strategy!




Take back control of the ominous depths of the Hexium, a prison forged by your own hands to confine malevolent souls. Unravel the mysteries of your creation and navigate treacherous landscape, where every shadow conceals a potential threat, and every step forward brings you closer to the wrath of those you have condemned to an eternity of darkness.




  • Roguelite-builder: The ability to carve your dungeon, increasing the replayability and the control you have in each and every run.
  • Immersive world: Explore a beautifully crafter 3D side-scroller.
  • Fast paced action: Embody the Architect, a dynamic character that can dodge, dash and slash in the blink of an eye!
  • Constant progress: Unlock powerful items and choose which talents to master.
