Our take on Vambrace: Cold Soul
The expedition format puts preparation and party risk at the center, but permanent deaths make setbacks costly. That trade-off leaves less room for low-pressure experimentation with party choices and routes.
What is Vambrace: Cold Soul?
Set in the frost-cursed city of Icenaire, this story-driven roguelite follows Evelia Lyric, the only human able to enter the city.
Plan expeditions with a party of recruits, choose party leaders, and prepare by resting at camp, gathering materials, scavenging supplies, and crafting items and armor. On the surface, navigate traps and strange encounters, make decisions that can put the party at risk, and fight deadly enemies. The campaign spans 7 chapters and draws on a setting with survivors, undead Wraiths, and the King of Shades. Recruit from 5 races and 10 classes. Sub-quests can unlock up to 26 character skins, and codex pages add information about the world's history and lore. Party members can die permanently.
