Dofus-style turn-based tactical combat meets Brotato's roguelite runs, with one twist no one else pulls off: you can extract.
Build a team, loot gear in grid-based turn-based combat, then extract to keep your haul, or push deeper for more and risk it all. Die and you lose everything you looted. You keep only the XP. Every run is a "cash out now, or push my luck" call.
Under the hood it's a deep tactical looter: 4 classes, each wielding 3 of the 4 elements for 12 distinct kits and over 100 spells. Trigger 6 elemental reactions, build around 200+ items and 42 gear sets, craft from 200 recipes, forge the perfect roll, and spend an 81-node skill tree.
And your loot is actually worth something. Vicelock has a real player-driven market: trade your gear with other players, so the stuff you risk your run for has real value.
