Challenge Death himself in a coin-flipping roguelike across the Greek Underworld. Build a tableau of mythic coins, discover unexpected synergies, and wield the powers of Olympus to bend fate in your favor.

"Boldness is the beginning of action, but fortune controls how it ends." - Democritus Challenge Death himself in a coin-flipping roguelike where every choice balances risk and reward. Build a tableau of mythical coins and manipulate fate itself in a desperate journey across the River Styx. BUILD YOUR TABLEAU Strategically collect a wide variety of mythical coins, each with unique powers and synergies. Carefully expand your tableau as your build evolves from fragile beginnings into an engine of perfect probability, insatiable greed, and clever combinations. Every coin has two faces, and every flip may change your fate. CALL UPON THE MIGHT OF OLYMPUS Choose a divine patron to guide you on your journey through the Underworld. Each grants unique powers and playstyles, allowing you to experiment with radically different strategies across runs. DESCEND INTO THE UNDERWORLD Overcome deadly trials, banish terrifying monsters, and confront legendary bosses as you descend into the darkness. Examine your map to scout ahead, and plan your strategy carefully. Death is infinite. Death is patient. UNLEASH NEW POSSIBILITIESCharon's Obol evolves each run as you complete achievements, expanding an ever-growing pool of choices: 100+ coins, each with a unique power to master. Each coin creates new opportunities and clever combinations. 30+ characters, who twist the fundamental rules of the game in new and unnatural ways. Choose your favorite, or try to win with them all. 25+ coinpools that dramatically alter which coins appear during a run. Adapt to new synergies and abandon familiar strategies. 8 difficulty levels, and an infinitely scaling mode. How deep into darkness do you dare to venture? FEATURESInnovative coin-flipping roguelike gameplay Deep engine-building and synergy crafting A dark world inspired by Greek mythology Varied and deep metaprogression unlocks Powerful build-defining patron gods Endless replayability through diverse builds and strategies Unique pixel-art presentation inspired by retro roguelikes The ferryman awaits.
