Rogue Descent

Rogue Descent is a fast-playing roguelite auto battler in which you descend through a changing dungeon to find and destroy the evil at its heart. The land is troubled by a mysterious force said to come from a nearby crypt; its nature is uncertain, with some believing it to be a dragon, the Devil or Death itself. You plan your route and battles, choose loot and events, and rely on daring and luck. Death is permanent, but more heroes can take the place of those who fall.

The descent

Each run takes you through 20 randomized floors across four pixel-art biomes. You encounter dozens of unique enemies and mysterious strangers who have their own reasons for wandering the dungeon. Discover which of several end-game evil beings controls the enemies, then face that power in a boss fight. A run takes around 30–40 minutes if you survive.

Classes and gear

You can permanently unlock classes, with 10 currently in the game, including the armour-destroying Vanguard and the nimble Assassin. More than a dozen starting boons let you further tailor a run, while weapons, armour, trinkets and events can alter it along the way.

Ascension

Surviving your first Descent unlocks five further Ascension difficulty levels, each more brutal than the last.
