About

Praise Neath.

Lead a band of fragile warriors through a colossal, inverted tower, where Taboos, the everchanging edicts of a God, warp the laws of reality.

Neath is a roguelike tactical RPG set in a decaying world shadowed by an irradiated, inverted tower. Using a fluid turn-based system where the turn order is always shifting, you dictate the actions of both friend and foe alike. As enemies engage you they will freeze your teammates in fear. Disrupt opponents by knocking them away, shove allies far from impending harm, or make the ultimate sacrifice and have someone else take the blow in their stead.

As you ascend the corrupt citadel to defy the decree of the undivine, your journey will twist and turn with encounters shown through a classic 90’s dungeon-crawler style. Unlock new abilities and challenges that ensure every expedition is unique, and unravel a dark mystery before you succumb to the horrors within.

Key Features

• Control Every “Moment” – A unique “engagement-locking” system grips your teammates in fear when they are targeted by enemies, and you must disrupt your foes to save them. In Neath there are no heroes. Work together to survive, or stand alone and fall.
• Ascend the Inverted Tower – Face your fears as you ascend the ever-changing inverted tower of Neath in a roguelike tactical RPG where every run is unique.
• Defy Fate – Make trapped chests fizzle, barter with the gods, and reshape destiny with the power of Fate’s Die. Encounter special events inspired by classic 90’s dungeon-crawlers that reshapes your party during every run. But beware the consequences when playing games with providence.
• Ever-Changing Encounters – Build your party throughout the run to learn new abilities and uncover ancient, powerful relics. Build esoteric synergies that will have you poisoning the air with rotting stench, or striking blows that send enemies hurtling across the room.
• Shape Your Settlement – Build up the lowly town of Shale to better prepare you to climb deeper into the depths of the tower. Distribute your serfdom to prioritize skills that adjust your playstyle before every run.
• Praise Neath – The Taboos must be honoured. The Taboo must be obeyed. Tithe the gods; say their name. Laws may change, but the punishment remains the same. Praise Neath.
