Welcome to the Zodiac Trials, where aspiring animal spirits from across the realms compete for a divine seat among the stars. Face demons, Guardians, and your own limits to claim the title of the 13th Zodiac in this roguelike hack-and-slash inspired by Eastern mythology. You are the plucky underdog fighting for celestial glory — forge powerful builds, conquer shifting arenas, and rise stronger after every fall.
Take on the Trials with a cast of extraordinary animal spirits, each mastering a distinct combat style.

Each run is a fresh climb toward greatness. Master diverse characters, craft your playstyle through deep upgrades and modifiers, and unlock new powers that change how every encounter unfolds. No two trials are ever the same — each victory and defeat reshapes your path through the celestial realms.
Solo Mode – Sharpen your skills in a single-player action roguelike experience built for fluid combat, precision, and mastery.

Co-op Mode (2–4 Players) – Join forces with friends to face tougher enemies, stronger bosses, and even moral temptations that can test your teamwork and resolve.

Whether you’re new to the genre or a seasoned action roguelike veteran, 13Z: The Zodiac Trials offers a challenge that grows with you. Each run is a dance of grit, speed, and power against hordes of foes and cunning Guardians. Triumph through adaptability, clever builds, and relentless spirit — and you may yet carve your name among the stars.

The Trials await the next legend.
Will you seize the mantle and become the 13th Zodiac Guardian?
