Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a fixed, predictable campaign may find the changing enemies and bosses across runs disruptive.

Our take on Godstone
The bounce point is likely the combination of repeated runs and build experimentation. Players who do not want to adjust skill trees, combine items and upgrades, or learn boss timing may hit a wall as they face changing encounters.
What is Godstone?
Godstone is a roguelike dungeon crawler set beneath a ruined city in a dark fantasy world shaped by war.
Players take the role of a war deserter seeking the Godstone with guidance from a strange companion, while the story takes unexpected turns and includes betrayal. Combat combines magic and weapons with timing and strategy against varied enemies and bosses. Later runs can introduce additional enemies and bosses. Character progression includes customizable skill trees, items, upgrades, shops, and weapons that support different builds and synergies.
Some combinations can alter health and mana, change spells, or summon crows. Exploration includes hidden doors and false walls that lead to paths and treasures. The story is presented from each playable character’s perspective, and dialogue can vary with past actions and carried items.
