About Children of Morta
Lead the Bergson family of heroes through procedurally generated dungeons in this action RPG that lets you swap between seven unique characters between runs, leveling up the entire family as you hack and slash against the encroaching Corruption. Beautiful hand-painted pixel art and a rogue-lite approach to character development combine with online and local co-op to create a fresh take on dungeon crawling that's as much about family bonds as it is about combat.
IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY
Children of Morta is an action RPG with a rogue-lite approach to character development, where you don’t play a single character - but a whole, extraordinary family of heroes. Hack’n’slash through hordes of enemies in procedurally generated dungeons, caves and lands and lead the family of Bergsons, with all their flaws and virtues, against the forthcoming Corruption.
FEATURES:
ONLINE CO-OP is live now in the game giving you the possibility to play with a long-distanced friend! Available both in Story and Family Trials modes, the Online Co-op gives you a chance to team up and battle Corruption side by side. Local Co-op is also available!
GAMEPLAYGameplay-wise it's a unique mix of action-adventure RPG, rogue-lite and hack and slash game. By leveling up, you develop not only individual characters but also the entire family. There is no permadeath and you can change family members between the dungeon runs.
STORYThe story takes place in a distant land but copes with themes and emotions common to all of us: love and hope, longing and uncertainty, ultimately loss... and sacrifice we are willing to make to save the ones we care the most for. Ultimately, it's about a family of heroes standing against the encroaching darkness.
DUNGEON CRAWLINGAll the dungeons in the game are procedurally generated, which means their layout is different with each adventure. There can be from two to four levels of each dungeon, with a unique boss fight at the end. You can always get back to the previous dungeons to get extra XP or finish all the side quests.
CHARACTERS & SKILLSRanged attacks, magic spells, blocks, stuns, healing, evasions and passive skills - it's all there for you to discover, unlock and upgrade. You can choose from seven different family members, each one having unique skill sets. The father, John - a protective warrior with a sword and shield. The elder daughter Linda - a precise archer. Kevin, a quiet fighter equipped with deadly daggers. Lucy - a lively and bold fire mage. Mark - a mindful martial arts fighter. Joey - who smashes his enemies with a sledgehammer. And the latest addition to the family - Apan, a mighty healer and a firm defender in one.
ART STYLEA combination of hand-painted pixel art and frame-by-frame animations partnered with modern lighting techniques come to life to create the beautifully dangerous world of Children of Morta!
DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP COMPLETED
The ancient Development Roadmap has come to an end. As a result the game has gained additional content including new characters, new items, new mechanics and more! The final point - Fellowship Sanctuary - has been reached, giving you a free update with Online Co-op for two players. The Online Co-op is available in all game modes (Story and Family Trials) and like the local co-op, it offers numerous playstyles, since every Children of Morta warrior has a unique fight style.

Needs a button to fast forward/double speed the cutscenes. They're very frequent and very drawn out. I don't want to miss them, but they hurt the pacing. Like I'm trying to action rpg, NO no... see you NEED to - S L O W L Y - look here while darkest dungeon's cousin - S L O W L Y - rambles about thisorthat.1 found this helpful
Its 2026. 4 player when?1 found this helpful
Far too much story with not enough gameplay variety, tried jamming it with a friend but its pretty samey. Playing it solo I just don't care enough about the story to sit through the frequent breaks from combat. Feels like a lesser version of Hades in basically every way. If you are gonna break the gameplay first agreement in an ARPG you need a great story for me to care, this simply doesn't have that.1 found this helpful
