Ascendancy is free to play — there is no purchase price, on Steam or anywhere else we track. We keep watching it, so if it ever stops being free the price history on this page will show when that happened and what it changed to.

About Ascendancy

Watch a hundred AI-controlled characters, each with randomized stats, drop into a chaotic, obstacle-filled arena in an intense simulation. Scavenge weapons, armor, and loot scattered across the map while observing thrilling battles unfold in real time. Players can choose to control any AI character they find most promising and try to survive until only one remains.

Features:

Dynamic AI battles with 100 characters, each behaving differently based on stats and equipment

Procedurally generated loot scattered throughout the arena

Multiple obstacles and environmental hazards to navigate strategically

Full player control of a chosen AI character, allowing skillful play to influence the outcome

High replayability: each match offers unique scenarios, outcomes, and strategies

Spectator-style simulation mode to watch the AI fight it out

A friend of mine said that if I post a review on Ascendancy and it hits 20 likes and 20 awards, he’s my personal pizza sponsor for the rest of this year. I’m counting on you guys.

Shovel-ware, you walk as pill colliders and bump into other pills. Trash.

Don't bother. The previews are more exciting than the game. There's no music. There's no settings menu. Space just pauses and the only option is to change look-around sensitivity. You can't pick up anything. Bumping into other "pills" does nothing, but if they bump into each other, there's actual damage exchanged. It's a slog to get anywhere because you can only walk. It seems like the dev released it and then just bounced. Free is too much to pay for this game.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
