About This Game

The Gate is open. Ten depths will make you earn it.

Arch Rogue is (yet another) modern take on the classic Rogue formula: a grim,
replayable isometric action-RPG dungeon crawler. Every run builds a new
dungeon — new floors, new enemies, new treasure, new dilemmas — and every
death is final. What carries forward is what you've learned, what you've
discovered, and the options your past runs have unlocked.

A dungeon with intent

• Ten procedurally built depths with themed biomes, chokepoints, traps,
  secrets, and dark floors lit only by your lantern.
  
• Floor plans pace the whole run: escalating threat, elite packs, ruin
  ambushes, treasure vaults, and optional challenge rooms for those who ask
  for trouble.
  
• Five bosses bar the way — the Ash Gallows Knight, the Mycelial Matron,
  the Rime Chanter of the Ninth Bell, the Voidbound Rune Sentinel — and, at
  the bottom, the Dread Gate Tyrant.

Fight in real time, die in real time

• Melee arcs, ranged bolts, arc novas, and a dash — governed by stamina,
  mana, and cooldowns, against enemies with readable telegraphs.
  
• Elites with named modifiers, Oathbound minibosses, and encounter design
  that makes every room a decision.

Loot worth dying for

• Five archetypes — Warden, Rogue, Arcanist, Acolyte, Ranger — with active
  abilities, passive talents, branch commitment, and combo bonuses.
  
• Six rarity tiers and an ARPG-style affix vocabulary: damage types,
  resistances, lifesteal, thorns, procs, and speed.
  
• Unidentified items, tempting cursed bargains, and unique relics with
  effects that bend a build around them.

The dungeon asks questions

• A seeded dark-fantasy storyline with story guests and Aid / Bargain / Defy
  choices that echo through the run.
  
• Seven shrine types, hidden caches, sealed armories, moonlit bargains, and
  lore buried where only the thorough will find it.
  
• Flavor halls off the beaten path — a bar with a toast pilgrimage, a
  moonlit garden, the Hall of Unlost Echoes — each with its own rites and
  little games.

Two will descend

• Online two-player co-op: host a run, share a 4-character code, and descend
  the same dungeon together. No accounts, no sign-up.

Built for the long haul

• Four difficulties, from Easy to the unlockable Hell.
  
• Meta-progression that opens options without removing run tension.
  
• Full controller support and native Steam Deck play.
  
• 39 achievements.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Arch Rogue was developed with extensive use of generative AI. Most of the game's code was written with AI assistance. The pixel-art sprites, tiles, animations, and store artwork were created with AI image-generation tools and then curated and integrated by the developer. Dialogue, quest text, and lore were AI-generated from developer-designed prompts and story structure. All AI content is created during development, not at runtime — the game does not generate any content with AI at runtime.
