About Null Root

DEFEAT THE NULL CORRUPTION

Fight through escalating waves of enemies and bosses in a fast-paced action roguelite built around precision, positioning, and rapid decision-making. Each run starts simple but quickly spirals into chaotic, screen-filling bullet hell combat. Collect resources, unlock new abilities, and push deeper every run.

DUAL-CONTROL COMBAT

Your daemon core and cursor work independently. Some abilities fire from your daemon, others deploy at your cursor's position. Detonate an explosion at your daemon's location, then blink to your cursor to escape. Draw lines that detonate seconds later and spawn a firewall with your cursor. Every ability placement is a tactical decision.

SYSTEM FEATURES

  • Bite-Sized Chaos: Fast-paced runs ranging from 30 seconds to 10 intense minutes.
  • Deep Arsenal: 22 distinct active abilities, choose your load-out and chain them into devastating combos.
  • Tactical Upgrades: Progress through 3 distinct tech trees: offense, defense, and utility.
  • Formidable Threats: Survive relentless elite geometric swarms and conquer 5 challenging bosses.
  • Risk & Reward: Defend data caches mid-run for bonus loot, and unlock run modifiers to push the difficulty to the absolute limit.

CUSTOMIZATION

As well as equipping your chosen active skills you also unlock and equip skins.

CONTROLS

The game is best played with a mouse and keyboard but it runs fine with a gamepad and also on steamdeck natively.

Tutorial was a little sparse but got easier to understand with more playtime. Stick with it and it'll open up to a complete Geometry Wars-esque ****storm.

Nice arcade style game, kinda like Geometry wars but with more choices for skills and builds.

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Dragon Age 2: one city, ten years, three acts

Games like Dragon Age 2 are hard to find because almost no RPG keeps you in one city while it rots. These come close, from Neketaka to the streets of Serene.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Flotsam free on Epic: claim the garbage-sea builder by 12 Nov

Flotsam free on Epic until 12 November. The cheapest we had logged it at since late September was $10.45 on 15 October, and the market had moved back up before this offer opened.
