Soul Chained

Soul Chained is an action game where you and your friends play as fallen rival warlords bound together by the Soul Chain. Condemned to wander Purgatory, you must atone for your mortal sins as you ascend the colossal Tower of Purgatory. The chain is central to combat, exploration, failure and victory.

Fight with the Soul Chain

Use chain-based physics to coil enemies together, trip bosses, swing objects or clothesline groups of foes. The chain can enable coordinated attacks, but it can also yank you and your teammate into danger. Combat is deliberate and stamina matters; panic rolling is discouraged.

You also have Chain Magic, various weapons and stat progression. Each chapter ends with a battle against a massive manifestation of sin, trauma, regret or another idea. Bosses can crush you or throw you off ledges, and they hit hard.

Play alone or together

Online Havoc Mode supports up to four players. You can bring up to three friends as you climb the Tower, where chain yanks and desperate revives can turn the group’s progress into shared failures.

Single-player mode replaces a chained friend with a massive glowing ball that you drag and swing as you fight and climb through Purgatory.

Other features

The game includes unique bosses and enemy encounters, deliberately rough graphics and exaggerated jiggle physics. It also has a Jank slider that does nothing.
