Ashborne: Survival Roguelite

Six heroes. One spell each. A horde that never stops coming. Ashborne is a survival roguelite played in portrait with one thumb. Pick a hero, pick a map and hold out for as long as you can. Your hero casts on their own; you decide where to stand. ONE SPELL, TWELVE RANKS Every hero carries a single signature spell and takes it from Rank 1 to Rank 12 over a run. Each level-up pauses the fight and offers three cards: raise the spell's rank, change how it behaves with a signature card, or strengthen your hero. By the end of a good run, your spell looks nothing like it did at the start. SIX HEROES • Mage — hurls fireballs that explode on impact and burn whoever is close. • Paladin — a blade of holy light spins around him and cuts anything that comes near. • Ranger — rapid volleys of arrows at the nearest enemy. • Rogue — shadow daggers circle her and cut every enemy she runs through. • Warrior — the ground splits into fissures, and bolts leap from enemy to enemy. • Warlock — raises skeletons that fight for him until they crumble. A BOSS EVERY FEW MINUTES Bosses come from a shuffled deck, each with its own tells, and every boss you bring down drops a card on the spot. The run never ends: the clock is your score. WHY YOU COME BACK • Ember from every run buys permanent Enchantments. Refund them all at any time and try another build. • Deeds unlock heroes and maps as you play. • Vows make a run harder and pay more Ember. • Caches hold relics that change a single run, and Rites pay an Improvement when you complete them. • Mastery: play a hero to earn their skins, titles and frames. • Four maps — Thatchwold, Hollowbarrow, Skerrywood and Emberpan — each harder than the last. • The Grimoire records every monster and boss you meet. PLAYS OFFLINE The whole game runs without a connection. Only the optional videos need the internet. YOUR CHOICE, ALWAYS No gacha, no energy, no loot boxes. No banners and no ads between runs: every video is optional and only starts when you tap it. • Fall after three minutes and you can watch a video to come back once. The clock goes on from where you fell: your record keeps the run's whole time. • At the end of a run, a video doubles the Ember you earned. • The Supporter Pack, a one-time purchase, gives you both with a tap and no video. If you want to support development, there is also an optional tip. Made by one developer in Brazil. Portrait, one thumb, a few minutes or an hour.
