Dark Scrolls is a fantasy action roguelite that combines fast-paced platforming with shoot-’em-up-inspired combat across procedurally generated adventures. Whether playing solo or teaming up with a friend in local or online co-op, you’ll battle through hand-crafted rooms filled with dangerous enemies, deadly traps, branching paths, and challenging bosses. Every hero brings their own unique attacks, abilities, and playstyle, encouraging you to experiment as you push deeper into each run.
Between battles, you’ll spend the coins you’ve collected at Bruce & Goose’s Shoppe to unlock new perks, devastating attacks, summoned allies, and powerful elemental abilities that can be combined into increasingly destructive builds. As you progress, you’ll rescue new heroes, discover hidden paths and secret locations, customize characters with trinkets, and uncover the many mysteries scattered throughout the world. With nine playable heroes, evolving routes, procedurally generated runs, and countless upgrade combinations, every adventure offers a fresh path through the world of Dark Scrolls.
