Hound Riders is a tactical roguelite ammo-builder about bullets, magic, and survival in the Scarlands: a post-apocalyptic wasteland where witchcraft, dust, and rust are tangled together.
Play as a hound rider carrying a curse you do not fully understand. Travel across a nonlinear map, face deadly encounters, gather strange powers, and build your strategy bullet by bullet.
In combat, every shot matters. Choose your ammo carefully, aim at specific enemy parts to trigger tactical effects, and fire bullets in the right sequence to unleash blood-magic combos. Each run challenges you to adapt your loadout, your route, and your decisions as you uncover the truth behind your curse.
