About This Game

Cursed Soulless Vagabonds - Vagabonds for short - is a hybrid rogue-incremental action RPG. It combines the top-down controls of classic action RPGs with the automated combat system of a survivor-like. You will not find any active skills, mana or dodge rolls - but thanks to the incremental approach, all gathered weapons, experience points, and currencies are kept permanently after each of your short runs.

Death is not the end: You always keep your progress and can continuously invest your resources into the Upgrade Map to systematically improve your character. The action unfolds as an intense bullet heaven: Your ever-growing arsenal attacks autonomously, allowing you to focus entirely on gathering loot, and growing stronger.

Bite-Sized Levels

Vagabonds is designed for extremely short, intense play sessions.

A single level takes only a few minutes, and a complete run takes under 15 minutes.

If you die, you can jump straight into the next attempt without any hassle.

In combat, you only need to move your character.

Tactically dodge enemies while your floating swords attack fully automatically.

Move and Collect

Collect all dropped resources and use them across the game.

Two Game Modes: Find New Husks and Fight The Demon

You were once a god, watching over humanity from far above. Then a demon's curse fell like a broken dream, stealing your divinity and dragging you down into a weakened form. The curse swept the realm in a single breath, tearing the souls from mankind and pulling them into the only things strong enough to hold them: swords, forged for eternity. The world did not die; it froze into strange loops, with regions and places repeating in half-forgotten echoes. Now, stripped of shape, voice, and power, you must possess the empty husks of fallen warriors. Through them, you must gather these trapped souls, navigate the shifting ruins of a broken realm, and destroy the demon at the heart of the curse to end the cycle.

Find New Husks

While searching for additional Husks, you will constantly find new characters.

With the gathered souls and resources, you can unlock countless improvements on the extensive Upgrade Map.

All progress made here (upgrades, characters, EXP, level-ups, discovered weapons) is saved permanently and applies to both game modes.

Fight the Demon

In the game mode against the demon, all your gathered progress is put to full use.

Additionally, you need to find magical seals to strip the demon of its massive life energy - energy stolen from the god.

With patience, skill, strategy, and an immense number of weapons and upgrades, the demon can be defeated.

Swords

The blades are the core of your build.

With 666 handcrafted weapons and a TCG-inspired equipment system, every run is different.

You can use up to 25 swords simultaneously, floating above you and attacking autonomously.

In the selection screen, they are presented like TCG cards, allowing you to assemble your absolute best arsenal or craft extremely focused builds.

The swords synergize based on set, type, class and color.

Pay attention to the colors so you can combine them intuitively and in a flash.

Upgrade Map

Incrementally improve all characters using your earned loot and expand your permanent power through the Upgrade Map.

The Upgrade Map represents the true exploration of the game: discover new paths, unlock gates through in-game milestones, and push your upgrades to higher levels.
