Requiem For a Lost World

Requiem For a Lost World is a survival roguelike where you don't attack directly, but build a system that fights for you. Your weapons fire automatically. Your job is to move, survive, and make the right decisions every time you level up.No two runs play out the same. Every choice you make: which weapons to pick? which elements to combine? which items to sacrifice HP for? Shapes a build that either holds together under pressure or falls apart when the waves stop giving you room to breathe.Play solo or bring up to 7 others along for the run!

Fight off hordes of enemies

Kill enemies, collect EXP, level up, choose what your build becomes and attempt to survive for 30 minutes.Elite enemies drop special rewards if you manage to defeat them. Monster density and strength ramp continuously as the game progresses. Even the best build can fail if played incorrectly - Learn and adapt.

Many characters with distinct abilities

Unlock the growing cast of over 25 unique characters.Each character comes with a passive ability, a locked starting weapon, an active skill, and Shard upgrades that let you rank them up over time. Some scale with enemy count. Some reward risky HP trading. Some revolve entirely around elemental reactions. Your character choice defines the shape of your build before the run even starts.

Build Your System

Vast selection of upgrades

Stack your loadout over the course of a run. Each level-up offers a randomized selection of new weapons, upgrades, or passive items to choose from a vast inventory of 100+ weapons and items. Every weapon follows and archetype and deals element-aligned damage making selecting right combinations more important than ever!

Elemental Reactions

Make a build focusing on multiple elements: hit an enemy with two different elements and a powerful reaction triggers unleashing even more devastation.Or do the opposite: stack the same element repeatedly to trigger a different type of effect!

Experience the stylized world

Traverse the vast grass fields of the outskirts of the Capital, dive deep into dark dungeons of the Capital's undergrounds, or explore the vast snow plains of the Northern Tundra. Beautiful VFX and the mix of 2D and 3D graphics will make sure to keep you visually entertained.Each location is filled with puzzles and points of interest for you to discover.

Multiple progression systems

Equip characters with relics, acquire their rank-ups when weapons alone are no longer enough and unlock buffs from global passive tree. Each character benefits from different stats, and it's up to you to find the perfect balance or define your own META build!With nearly 40 upgradable stats there is plenty to choose from!

Plan your builds ahead of time
