About the Game

Idle hands do the Devil's work. Tap to summon demons, raise an infernal workforce, and claw your way down through the nine Circles of Hell... from Limbo to the frozen treachery at the bottom, where the Devil himself is waiting.

Descend, and grow stronger

Every descent is a bargain: you give up everything you've built -- your demons, your power-ups, your whole workforce -- for a permanent multiplier that makes the next circle pay out far more. Nine circles, each richer and stranger than the last.

Bargain at the Crossroads

A figure waits where the roads cross, and he deals in souls. Stake what you've earned on a single roll: bet small and the odds turn against you; bet big and the swings turn brutal. Walk away with a fortune... or get Cast Down to Limbo for your greed. The dial is yours. So is the risk.

Battle the Devil

Reach the bottom and Satan takes notice. He'll steal from your hoard and dare you to take it back -- a tapping duel that escalates every time you win. Beat him, and he comes back stronger. The fight never ends the same way twice.

Bank souls, climb forever

Resurrect to convert a run into Souls, then spend them on permanent powers that carry across every future descent. It's an idle game that respects your time -- play actively and tap, or set it down and let your demons earn while you're away.
