Defeat high ranking enemies quickly before they have a chance to summon reinforcements for a counter-attack.Find secret bosses rare-spawn monsters & complete quests to permanently add new weapons enemies shrines & more to the level generator. Join powerful cults to gain new perks and powers. You can even worship some beings in secret without violating existing pacts if you dont get caught.Shadowcrawl is less about luck or collecting loot than it is about strategy. As you accumulate perks and abilities your character will take on traits that let them adapt more effectively to different features of the maze generator forcing you to think strategically at all times about where you are standing and where you are going. Most players know many moves ahead of time if they are going to die once they learn how to read the battlefield. You are constantly being swarmed by hundreds even THOUSANDS of enemies at a time must think on your feet to survive.Shadowcrawl is not your standard Roguelike with quests cults factions multiple endings unlockable enemies hidden game modes secret levels & more! Weve taken the classic 80s "Free-Turn" roguelike formula and updated it with modern game design lessons to make it focused on strategy & skill. Use spatial awareness of your environment to manage the massive swarms of enemies that hunt you in the NEXUS and overcome impossible odds.DEEP CHARACTER BUILDINGCharacter experience is maintained between deaths & character builds are deep but easy to make and remake. Besides simply leveling up your choices Gods and allegiances throughout the game will also grant you access to new perks abilities and more.Mix & Match Melee Ranged and Stealth specializations in various combinations to create builds with unique playstyles. A stealth-oriented mage can get up to 8 stealth-kills in a single attack if played cleverly. Your characters class changes dynamically as you help NPCs acquire unique equipment and join different factions. You can view the name of your current class on the bottom of the screen there are hundreds of unique class combinations and even secret class titles that can be accessed.Shadowcrawl will even trick you into certain playstyles based on your choices. As a Demon it is effective to play in an underhanded manner or should you be turned into a mindless monster then your character is forced to berserk or die.STEALTHSome perks and classes will grant your character the ability to hide in the shadows. This enhances the lighting effects and makes the player hard to detect or even undetectable in low lighting conditions. Sneak past tough enemies and perform devastating attacks from the shadows. Combine with the Assassin perk for powerful stealth damage bonuses.COMPLEX INTERNALLY CONSISTENT OCCULT UNIVERSEShadowcrawl is a fully actualized universe with consistent internal mechanics that can all be discovered and interacted with. Including the fundamental forces of life and magic what the NEXUS is where each NPC came from how they wound up in the dungeon and more. Every question in the game can be answered if you look hard enough. Every one of these things can be interacted with. Should the player find and tamper with the God that governs the laws of life and death then the laws of life and death in the game will change.The levels themselves are powered by technology that creates an actual infinite continuum of static game dungeons. These dungeons have been mathematically folded through higher dimensions to create a structure with a hyper-dimensional coordinate system......In other words the NEXUS really is a mathematically 10-dimensional space. Its not just lore the NEXUS is an actual dungeon multiverse.Betraying the game-world mechanics can release terrifying secret enemies into your game. Things like killing the Omnipotent collapsing dimensions in on themselves or just generally warping space-time will unleash the deadly "Glitch" enemies into your game.Unlike normal enemies the "Glitches" can jump between your save files and show up in any universe for any character.However they can be stopped. Killing "Glitches" you have freed will kill them for good until you unleash some more.
