Rogue with the Dead is an original roguelike RPG where you command and power up troops on an endless, looping journey.
What
kills you makes you stronger.
An innovative game from room6, the team that has brought you such successes as Unreal Life and Genโei AP.
โDefeat the Demon Lord
Your mission is to lead an envoy of soldiers for 300 miles, in order to
defeat the Demon Lord at the end.
Completing quests and killing monsters will earn you coins that you can use to make your troops stronger.
They fight automatically, and you can choose to either wait and watch them have at it or
join the battle yourself.
Soldiers respawn after theyโre killed, but you donโt. Youโll lose all soldiers, money, and items, except for
artifacts, and youโll have to start over.
To stand a chance against the powerful bosses impeding your progress, youโll need to collect as many artifacts as you can. Defeating them, in turn, will grant you more artifacts.
