About Hellwatch
Why are you here? Has life choked you so much that you've come seeking redemption through the most horrifying and effective means? Sit among the others and listen…
You'll defend the Soulforge, a celestial structure that grinds up the souls of demonic filth and turns them into weapons. Insane creatures will devour anyone who gets in their way, and that includes you. Strive to survive for as long as possible as the duration of your life depends on it. Each time you fail, this crazy place changes - neither you nor your hellish enemies will ever be bored.
If you manage to withstand it for just a couple of minutes, you'll realize that the darkness consumes you. You'll die – and it'll devour your life energy and recycle it before abandoning you, thus altering your essence forever. Fight, adapt, maneuver – do whatever it takes to stay one step ahead.
Within it lie various items, destined to bestow new powers and skills upon their owner. When things go wrong, don't forget to use your head and pick which piece of equipment will save you this time.
You'll be 1 of 4. You can bring friends, relatives, or simply those you find appealing; otherwise, we'll determine your fate ourselves. Among the chosen ones there are both angelic beings who will save each and every person, and thugs who would stab their own mother to fulfill the mission. Decide who you will be and… Well, in terms of who's right and who's to blame –you can inquire as you enter hell's domain.
You're hardly perfect, more like scum. However, you receive the power of a celestial guardian that not only prevents you from dying in the first few seconds but also compels you to reassess your life values. Under the threat of painful death, this becomes much more interesting.
You can't . Each time you get tossed in, you'll find that any plans can be shoved into your soul. Trust your instincts or push your luck. You've got all of eternity at your disposal.What Steam players say

Hellwatch, developed by FG and published by Brightika, Inc., is a cooperative action roguelite that builds its experience around relentless combat, unpredictable team dynamics, and a progression loop designed for repeated runs. Set against a dark fantasy backdrop, the game places players in the role of defenders tasked with holding back waves of demonic forces, blending elements of twin-stick shooters and hack-and-slash combat into a structure that emphasizes both individual skill and group coordination. The gameplay is driven by short, self-contained runs where players face increasingly difficult encounters while collecting upgrades and resources along the way. Combat is fast and chaotic, with enemies approaching from multiple directions and forcing constant movement and awareness. Each character offers a distinct set of abilities, allowing players to approach battles with different strategies, whether focusing on direct damage, area control, or support roles. The pacing is immediate, rarely giving players time to rest, which keeps the action engaging but can also make the experience feel overwhelming during longer sessions. Progression follows a familiar roguelite structure, wh…1 found this helpful
Too hard of a game, can't even get past the login screen boss (just loads infinitely). Might have worked at one point but seems bugged and abandoned now. Don't buy, even if there's a sale.1 found this helpful
Game doesn't work. Forces you to create an account, then freezes when you click the registration button. Unplayable.
