About This Demo

Revive and bring your past self as backup

Welcome Back to Work is a single-player, top-down survivors-like action roguelite. Spend VIP badges to revive and keep your run going, then return to your grave and rescue the self who just fell. The horde you faced alone now has another full loadout firing back.

This demo includes Betty and Baba Yaga, the first 15 waves of Survival mode, and roughly 15 minutes per run. Try reviving and rescuing your past self, fighting as a squad, and upgrading and fusing weapons.

Every rescue brings a whole loadout back into the fight

The moment you rescue your past self, they join your line with the weapons and combat stats they had when they fell. They attack automatically and cannot die again. Go from dodging the horde alone to fighting side by side with yourself, and take back the ground you just lost.

Reviving and rescuing both cost VIP badges. Die again before rescuing your last fallen self, and that unrescued grave is replaced.

Up to 6 weapons per self, a whole squad opening fire

Revive, rescue, and bring more past selves into the fight. Each can carry up to 6 weapons and keeps their own loadout. Grow from a lone survivor into a line of heavily armed selves, all firing alongside you.

Weapons attack automatically. You handle movement, dashes, and active skills as you lead your squad through the horde.

Squad combat shown from the full game. In this demo, experience revival and rescue progression with Betty or Baba Yaga.

Discover fusions and build even more firepower

Buy and upgrade weapons, explore fusion recipes, and combine matching-level ingredients into something new:

• Revolver + Submachine Gun → Gatling Gun

• Sword + Fireball → Flame Blade

• Mop + Dagger → Reaper Scythe

Discover a new weapon, then find a build that makes it shine. A past self's Ice Shard can freeze enemies, setting up bonus damage from your current self's Icebreaker Scepter. Your old loadout stays in the fight while you explore what to add next.

Start with Betty's all-round weapon damage or Baba Yaga's melee and knockback focus, and explore different ways to build your squad.

Death didn't get you off the clock

One bathroom break stranded you inside the twisted Grapple building. Monsters have taken over the office. The company still has just one thing to say:

Welcome back to work.

More past selves, more possibilities

The full game will feature five playable characters, longer survival challenges, and Chapter 2: Loop, where later attempts let you encounter and rescue selves who fell in earlier runs.
