Possession

Possession is a turn-based traditional roguelike in which you play as a frail ghost trying to reach the surface. You possess monsters you encounter and use their strength and abilities, moving from body to body as you make your way upward.

Possess monsters

The game features dozens of possessable monsters, from horrifying to hilarious, with a wide range of powers. It has no items: as a ghost, you have no need for worldly possessions, which would only slow you down.

Explore changing levels

Special themed levels feature their own hazards, creatures and layouts. Floors are randomly generated and can have multiple possible levels, so each playthrough differs.

Play and customize

Possession is designed to be quick to pick up, without requiring you to memorize numerous key commands or work through confusing lists of skills and abilities before starting. You can play entirely with the keyboard, entirely with the mouse or with both. Choose between graphics and ASCII modes, and use mod support to add creatures, powers and special levels or change existing ones.
