"Roguelike dungeon crawler with procedural runs that lets you jump in for quick sessions but demands focus during combat."

Heads up: Combat-heavy gameplay requires sustained attention, so while runs are short, you'll need mental energy to stay sharp—not ideal for half-focused gaming.

About

Battle deep in the mines of Adal as a solo warrior or in online cooperative play, collecting Gleam from Prospects infected by Arcell, an Etheran bent on breaking the Fold’s containment.. The more Gleam you capture, the more powerful you become in your struggle to defeat the Corrupted, and even Arcell himself. Each run through the Mines and Temples is a unique path through a variety of challenges and situations, facing upgraded enemies, and three epic boss fights.
