Ascension Trail

Disclaimer: I got the game for free from one of the two developers on Reddit. They kindly offered a few keys to people interested in the game, with no request in return. Fun game! I have been playing it on my gaming handeld (Legion Go 2 with Windows), and it is surprisingly addictive. Fighting large groups of enemies in dungeon-like areas feels very satisfying, especially because the gameplay is super smooth and responsive. Ascension Trail is an action roguelike game with equipment management. You can use different types of weapons, including swords, bows, and magic staffs, while also collecting and equipping gear. It is possible to complete equipment sets for additional bonuses. At the beginning of each run, and when opening Elite Chests, you can choose one of three powerful traits that last for the run. You can also skip a choice, which apparently saves it as a reroll for a later chest. There are also different types of Shrines during runs. The main ones are Upgrade Shrines, where you can spend shards obtained from defeated monsters on upgrades that last until the end of the run. At camp, you can buy and sell equipment and unlock permanent upgrades called Talents using coins…

I like the game, it's one of those roguelikes you can just zone out grinding while listening to podcasts in the background. There were some mechanics that I didn't understand at first, but as soon as you get the ball rolling things end up clearer. Not the most expensive game either, and the dev team are still tweaking and fiddling with stuff to make it better.

works at my slow laptop, the only thing i dont like is the light are not large enough, a bit turn off on my side, other than that, it's slow & light game, i am still playing slowly as i die often but started to get more armor and weapon. Recommended. Note to dev: - when player played with a controller, please change the guide info with controller guide, because all of the info still on keyboard (like F for open and close) - how to consume something on inventory with controller? do i have to move it to quick access then use it? is there a way so i can use it directly without moving it?

Bought this on a whim with basically zero expectations. Opened it while waiting for the boys to finish whatever they were doing in Discord. Ended up getting way too invested and almost missed our CS2 session 😂 Had to literally force myself to quit and launch CS2. Pretty fun game. The dungeon-crawling twist makes it feel different from the usual Vampire Survivors-style games. Lots of different builds to try, combat is simple but satisfying Didn't expect this game to actually keep me playing, but here we are. Definitely worth checking out if you like roguelites.

Just run around, hack and slash. A good time killer for those brainless moments

Fun little game, a good time killer. Will definitely entertain for at least a couple of evenings - Vibes like Diablo and Vampire Survivors had a child - Unexpectedly... Boss battles! - Has some fun mechanics, like traps, elemental synergies, and gambling - Builds and weapons are pretty diverse
