Master a dual-loop cycle, balancing investigation with high-stakes survival.
ON EARTH: Explore modern myths and unravel corporate conspiracies. Uncover government experiments, collect sinners, and expand your roster of Agents. Defeat here is temporary; every story adds to your power and arsenal.
IN HELL: The rules change. Enter harsh roguelite runs through Hell, shaped by modifiers and permanent loss. Here, your Agents can die for real. Lose one, and they are gone for the rest of the run. Lose too many, and your uprising ends in disgrace.
KEY FEATURES
Army of the Soulless
Command a squad of Agents across eight castes and three factions. These are not fantasy heroes; they are grounded in reality, shaped by conspiracy theories and human fear. Master their abilities to turn the tide of every duel.
Legends Made Flesh
Unravel both famous and forgotten myths. From the mirror-bound horror of Bloody Mary to the mind-melting Polybius arcade game and the infamous Russian Sleep Experiment.
Fast-Paced 5v5 Battles
Engage in tactical clashes designed for both quick sessions and obsessive deep dives. Every Agent has a distinct role and unique ability — tactics decide the momentum of battle.
Hells to Conquer
Traverse three distinct nightmares: Bureaucratic, Corporate, and Populist. Each descent is a unique roguelite run, nine floors deep, filled with faction-specific enemies and sinners to subdue.
Stories to Keep You Up at Night
Every dispatcher call drags you into a new grim narrative. Parallel to Lucifer’s payroll runs a personal story of rebellion, colliding with tech magnates and a shadow world government.
