Arch Rogue

About the Game

The Gate is open. Ten depths will make you earn it.

Arch Rogue is (yet another) take on the classic Rogue formula: a grim,

replayable isometric action-RPG dungeon crawler. Every run builds a new

dungeon — new floors, new enemies, new treasure, new dilemmas — and every

death is final. What carries forward is what you've learned, the endings

you've discovered, and a persistent Chronicle of your descents.

A dungeon with intent

• Ten procedurally built depths with themed biomes, chokepoints, traps,secrets, and dark floors lit only by your lantern.

• Floor plans pace the whole run: escalating threat, elite packs, ambushes, treasure vaults, and optional challenge rooms for those who ask for trouble.

• Five bosses bar the way — the Ash Gallows Knight, the Mycelial Matron,the Rime Chanter of the Ninth Bell, the Voidbound Rune Sentinel — and, at the bottom, the Dread Gate Tyrant.

Fight in real time, die in real time

• Melee arcs, ranged bolts, arc novas, and a dash — governed by stamina,mana, and cooldowns, against enemies with readable telegraphs. Each Archetype has unique class-skill.

• Elites with named modifiers, Oathbound minibosses, and encounter design that makes every room a decision.

Loot worth dying for

• Five archetypes — Warden, Rogue, Arcanist, Acolyte, Ranger — with active abilities, passive talents, branch commitment, and combo bonuses.

• Six rarity tiers and an ARPG-style affix vocabulary: damage types,resistances, lifesteal, thorns, procs, and speed.

• Unidentified items, tempting cursed bargains, and unique relics with effects that bend a build around them.

The dungeon asks questions

• A seeded dark-fantasy storyline with story guests and Aid / Bargain / Defy choices that echo through the run.

• Seven shrine types, hidden caches, sealed armories, moonlit bargains, and lore buried where only the thorough will find it.

• Flavor halls off the beaten path — a bar with a toast pilgrimage, a moonlit garden, the Hall of Unlost Echoes — each with its own rites and little games.

The dungeon has a pulse

• An adaptive original score changes in real time:exploration, nearby elites, refuge rooms, boss phases, and the changing health of hero reshape its synchronized instrumental layers.

Multiplayer — Planned post-release

• Launch into single-player. Online two-player co-op and two additional achievements are planned for a post-release multiplayer patch.

Built for the long haul

• Four difficulties, from Easy to the unlockable Hell.

• Save and resume your run, and keep a persistent Chronicle of your descents and discovered endings.

• Keyboard/mouse and remappable gamepad controls.

• 37 single-player achievements at launch, with two co-op achievements planned for the post-release multiplayer patch.
