Our take on GUILT: The Deathless
The game replaces the usual isolated run structure with a persistent world that carries player-made changes forward. Permanent death affects the character, while altars, projects, corpses, and other traces remain part of the shared setting.
What is GUILT: The Deathless?
GUILT: The Deathless is a roguelike action RPG adventure set in a persistent world affected by players’ choices.
Its non-linear map leads through procedurally generated levels and varied landscapes, including a sea of shipwrecks and an underground library. Combat takes place in real time, with attacks, dodging, stamina management, and equipment including weapons, armor, spells, and enchantments. Characters can die permanently, while their effects on the world remain. Players can unlock shortcuts, build altars, share or steal loot, and find signs of other journeys through corpses and constructions. The game can be played without an internet connection. Its dark fantasy story draws on Slavic folklore and follows a character bound to a pact with the sorcerer Koschei.
