Curse of the Dead Gods is a top-down action roguelite in which a treasure-seeker explores a seemingly infinite cursed temple full of traps, bottomless pits, and monsters. Greed is central to the design: grabbing gold and power feeds a growing Corruption meter that warps each run with both penalties and unexpected benefits. Combat is weighty and deliberate, rewarding dodging, parrying, and managing limited light against the surrounding darkness. Players chain together weapons and divine blessings to build toward powerful runs. Its mix of risk, atmosphere, and tight combat earned it a strong reputation, and it shares a developer with Ravenswatch.
