About
Crafted with passion by the team that redefined side-scrolling beat ’em ups, Absolum mixes top-of-the-class combat action with modern roguelite elements into an immersive adventure set in the original world of Talamh.
A magical cataclysm left magic mistrusted by the common folk and Sun King Azra took advantage of this panic, enslaving wizards through his Crimson Order and conquering more and more lands. With the help of high enchantress Uchawi, a small group of rebels rises from the shadows, wielding forbidden magic to challenge Azra’s oppressive regime and defy his absolute magic power.
Fight as the outcast heroes of Talamh in a fierce battle to retake magic from Sun King Azra’s grasp in Absolum, an original roguelite beat ’em up by Dotemu.
