Vesper

VESPER Descend before the last light dies.

Night is falling on the world above, and the only way is down. Vesper is a turn-based dark-fantasy roguelike: fifteen floors, three sunken realms, and one life. As you descend, the Vesper Hour creeps in — the world dims act by act, the violet rift below pulls closer, and every floor grows hungrier. Reach the bottom before the dark does.

Every step is a decision. Trade blows on a grid where positioning, dodges and crits decide who walks away. Read the room, spend your turn well, and don't get greedy — death is permanent, and the dungeon doesn't forget.

Features

• ⚔️ Tactical turn-based combat — melee, crits, dodges, status effects (poison, bleed, stun).
• 🗺️ Procedural floors — rooms, corridors, traps (spikes/fire/gas), locked vaults and lever/push-block puzzles. No two runs alike.
• 🌑 The Vesper Hour — a dusk clock that darkens the world the deeper you fall, across three acts: the Crypts, the Catacombs, and the Deep.
• 👑 Boss arenas — face the Rat King, the Bone Lord and the Hollow Heart in dedicated duels; on higher difficulties they shift phases and raise minions.
• 🧙 Two heroes, real builds — the Warrior (2H burst, sword & board, armor-break) and the Rogue (crit + dodge, daggers, venom). Perks and abilities shape each run.
• 💀 One life — permadeath by default; a hardcore descent where every choice counts.
• 🔮 Shrines, relics, lore fragments and elite enemies to find — and a full atmospheric soundtrack and effects.
• 🎮 Keyboard & gamepad. 🌍 English & Português (BR).

Difficulty for everyone From a gentle Easy to a lethal Brutal — pick how hard the night bites.
