Gods of the Grid is a match-3 roguelike RPG set in the world of Greek mythology. Swap runes to attack, heal, raise shields and channel the powers of the gods, then push deeper into nine dungeons of monsters and bosses. You only get one life per run: fall, and the journey resets, but the legend you build carries on.
MATCH RUNES, COMMAND THE BATTLE
Every swap matters. Skulls strike your foe, hearts heal you, shields grant armor that soaks damage before your health, and coloured runes bank mana for your spells.
Line up four runes to blast a whole row and column, or five to wipe an entire colour, and either one earns you an extra turn. Chain cascades for bigger combos and higher scores. Every enemy also hides an elemental weakness and resistance, discovered as the fight unfolds, so knowing your foe matters as much as your build.
BECOME A DEMIGOD
Begin each run as the child of a god, one of six demigod classes with a distinct playstyle, some available from the start and others earned at the Temple.
Every level-up you choose one of eighteen boons to shape your build, including build-defining ones that change how you play rather than just raise a number, and you claim powerful relics from bosses and merchants. Thirty-four relics span damage, defense, mana, healing and devious skull-synergy effects.
CONQUER THE DUNGEONS
Nine themed dungeons stand between you and Olympus, each ending in a boss who telegraphs a devastating special attack and enrages at half health.
Enemies have distinct traits and elemental resistances, so every fight reads differently. Between battles you take the road: heal at a Shrine, gamble with the Oracle, claim gold at an Altar, or spend it at the Merchant. Choose Normal for a balanced run or Hard for a tougher fight and a score bonus.
RISK IT ALL, EVERY RUN COUNTS
When you fall, the run ends and the dungeons relock, but your feats (56 to earn) are kept forever and you earn Favor to permanently unlock new classes and relics at the Temple.
