Niph

Niph is a roguelite platformer set in a fantasy world of procedurally generated areas. You slash, shoot and cast spells as you explore, gather items and face challenging combat. Each run brings a new layout and fresh challenges.

Explore the world

Your journey begins in Greenhorn's Haven, where you receive basic supplies, including an initial weapon of your choice. After completing the starting challenges, you can take a zipline to one of the map's four corners and begin exploring. The world has 12 areas, each with unique creatures, challenges and items found only in that biome.

Each area has dungeons with puzzles, rewards, new items, enemies and spells to learn. Every biome has two possible bosses, selected at random, and you must defeat its boss to complete the dungeon's challenge.

Build your abilities

Items are the main way to progress. Each teaches a unique special ability once it has gained enough experience, and you can use learned abilities even when the item is no longer equipped. As items gain experience, they also raise attributes such as strength and intelligence. Your arsenal includes swords, hammers, shields, staves, musical instruments and more.

Customize your character

Choose from different hairstyles, outfits and colors, and create multiple characters for new adventures.

Arena duels

Arena Mode pits you against other players in fast-paced combat. Your learned spells and equipped items shape your build and can make the difference in a duel.

Death and progress

Niph is challenging, and defeat is part of the journey. Its intelligent creatures can make reaching and beating a boss difficult. When you die, you lose some progress, but retain most of your power; a new run gives you another chance to learn abilities.
