A retro Zelda-like but also a Roguelite in which you search for artifacts hidden in a dark worldmap full of dungeons. Darkness is alive and The Hand destroys your path, trying to drag you in the Abyss. Find all the artifacts before getting caught.

Venture inside dungeons in search of them: each seed will randomly choose a set of artifacts, granting each time a different build. They will be randomly scattered along the worldmap, your goal is finding all artifacts.

The Hand is chasing you and will try to drag you in the Abyss. Wherever you go it will know and attack, sooner or later. You can't stay too long in the same place...

Each step will leave a trail of darkness, step in the same spot enough times and The Hand will destroy that spot. The destruction caused by The Hand will make harder to move around the worldmap, and narrow your options.

You'll have to deal with it, the greatest dangers dwell inside them. Night and depths will show eerie creatures... dark dungeons are ruled by different laws, reach the surface in time or the night will come... and The Hand with it.
In The Rogue of Nexus, time is the most precious resource. Each dungeon is a frantic race against time, with the looming threat of The Hand constantly pushing you forward. Manage your actions and movements in worldmap, then collect powerful artifacts to improve your skills. Each run is a new challenge, and each failure will give you the boost to stand up even stronger.
