A top-down action roguelite about a little mage who carves lightning itself. Etch engravings into your spells to reshape how they behave, weave engraving synergies into your own build, mow down monster packs, hunt buffed elites, and descend into ever-deeper arenas. What's carved cannot be undone.

SteamAbout Etched
ecome the Carver You don't write your spells on paper — you carve them in stone. Etched is a top-down action roguelite where you sculpt your skills themselves.
⚡ The Engraving System — the Heart of the Game
•
Etch engravings earned in battle into your skill slots to change how each spell behaves.
•
Lightning pierces through foes, residual current scatters on hit, chains arc across entire packs.
•
The same spell becomes a completely different weapon depending on which engravings you carve, and in what order.
•
Every engraving demands a price — choose carefully. What's carved cannot be undone.
🐢 Fight the Pack, Not the Monster
•
Enemies don't wander alone. They come in packs — touch one, and the whole pack answers.
•
Buffed elites hide among them. The ones with names like "Gale-force Giant Steel" are not to be taken lightly.
•
Read the elite's buffs and decide which pack to break first — that judgment is how you survive.
🌀 Deeper, Stronger
•
Clear the arena, step through the portal, descend into a deeper one.
•
The deeper you go, the stronger the enemies — and the more engravings the elites carry.
•
Gather drops, complete your build, and test how deep you can go.
