Theme: Ancient Ruins, Solitude


Explore

Grid based dungeon crawler.

Obtain weapons and items from chests and aim for the deepest part of the ruins.


Combat

  • Durability

With a few exceptions, weapons and items have durability and can only be used a limited number of times.

Stronger weapons are set to have lower durability,

so battle while considering whether to use them now or save them for later.

  • Parry

Press button at the right time just before taking damage will prevent the enemy's attack.

Aggressively aim for parry to take advantage of the battle!

  • Armor

When a treasure chest is found, the armor can be enhanced to increase its defensive value.

This enhanced value can be carried over and played from the beginning even if the game is over.

Even if you feel that the game is too difficult, you can lower the difficulty level by repeatedly reinforcing your armor.
