Buy Ruin of the Reckless PC key

Ruin of the Reckless is a 2D action roguelike focused on fast melee combat, quick movement and local co-op. You play as a wayward spirit trapped in a mysterious tower, where souls are bound and slowly rot away. A legend says that any spirit who reaches the tower’s peak will be granted one wish.

Ascend the tower

You explore a detailed, randomly generated tower that changes with each ascent, fighting large groups of enemies and searching for equipment. The game draws on the feel of 16-bit classics with updated graphics. It is easy to pick up, but reaching the higher levels takes considerable skill.

Combat and abilities

You can upgrade weapons, find equipment and level up your hero. Melee weapons have different strengths and drawbacks, with no single weapon suited to every play style. Spellbooks hold a specific spell and a limited number of charges; charging one makes its effects more powerful but uses charges faster. Orbs gained by leveling up can alter your spell abilities.

Skill Orbs can be consumed to gain a new ability permanently or used as weapons against enemies, though they can also explode on you. Boots change your dashing abilities: some let you dash farther or longer, chain dashes, stun enemies on impact or pass hazards.

Cards and co-op

Completing special challenges earns cards that you keep between runs. Most provide both a benefit and a drawback. Before a run, you can combine cards to set custom rules or change rules you dislike; for example, the Friends card turns off friendly fire. You can also bring a friend for local co-op.
