About the Game

Against the Umbral Horde

Hundreds of enemies stand between you and the mad wizard poised to destroy the realm. Try to survive as you battle through an ever-shifting landscape that’s never the same twice. Manage your time carefully, as the longer you play, the stronger the horde becomes.

Artefacts Abound

Discover a vast array of relics with strange and powerful effects. Grab as many as you can to find synergies and increase their power. Complete challenging achievements to unlock more relics for you to find, unleashing the limits of what you’re capable of.

Prepare For Combat

Bring your hard-earned gold to the local enchantress to enhance your characters with arcane rituals. Permanently increase your stats and equip potent charms to match your playstyle. Turn your character into an unstoppable force, with over 100 upgrades at your disposal.

Play the Game Your Way

With multiple playable characters each with their own strengths and weaknesses, over a dozen equipable charms and over 50 relics to find, there’s always something new to do. Whether you’re playing alone or with a friend, no two runs will be the same.
