Descend into a digital labyrinth of our own making
The year is 19XX. Great strides in neuromechanical research have allowed the most common human actions to be transcribed onto memory cards. Great oversights in said research have also made it so nobody remembered to save a backup. After a catastrophic crash renders most of the population comatose, you are tasked with diving into humanity's collective unconscious to retrieve the memories that may hold the key to ending the blackout.
Experience innovative real-time roguelike deckbuilder action
We combined your favorite genres into one grotesque piece of software! You're welcome, game journalists. Move around with your keyboard. Do everything else with your cards. In LYMBUS, exercise maximum strategy in building your deck, then throw that strategy out the window in screen-shaking, bullet hell-style battles. Combat happens in real time with no turns or slowdowns, meaning resources are tight and every moment matters.
More LYMBUS, more of the time
Revel in the endless content farm that is roguelike progression. Enjoy endless runs with randomized content and secret encounters across 3+ different biomes. Improve your chance of success in said runs by unlocking new booster packs and suits. Experience the thrill of financial liquidity with none of the microtransactions by buying things with our imaginary currency. The possibilities are endless!
