Wraithbinder

Wraithbinder is an action roguelike RPG in which you explore randomly generated dungeons and build a new sequence of abilities and relics on each run. Your choices can open up previously inaccessible areas, while your weapon, armor and stats carry over when you die.

Build your character

When you discover an ability, choose from multiple options to shape your run. Relics are also offered as choices; these artifacts can strengthen your character or debuff enemies. Abilities unlock areas in a Metroidvania-like progression.

At the start of each run, you can keep your current weapon, switch to another you own or spend ability keys to unlock a new one. The available abilities and weapons include:

• Sword
• Axe
• Knuckles for fast jabs
• Spear, which makes three quick strikes per press
• Mace, which can knock enemies off ledges
• Hammer, which deals heavy damage with a slow swing
• Bow
• Boomerang
• Grenades and bombs
• Charge, which powers up your blade for an explosive attack
• Boots for running fast
• Blink, which teleports you forward a few steps
• Jump, levitate and shield
• Wraithbinding, a form of necromancy
• Skybot, which builds buildings
• Telekinesis

Progress between runs

When you die, you keep your weapon, armor and stats. Between runs, you return to your ship and use the light, gold and metal you have collected to permanently power up your character.

Play alone or together

You can play solo. Couch co-op is planned to arrive during Early Access.
