About Shell of the coward

Shell of the Coward is a turn-based roguelike/RPG where you must escort the Anathema you swore to protect through a perilous dungeon.

You are a coward, a coward, a coward who fled in the face of danger, abandoning the Anathema you were meant to protect. Cursed by this act, you are doomed to escort her spirit without ever looking back, succeeding where you failed.

In Shell of the Coward, your mission is to guide the Anathema through a merciless world populated by formidable enemies and deadly traps. But you carry a heavy burden: the "Curse of Return." With each leftward movement, your curse gauge increases, making your journey more difficult with each sign of cowardice.

Key Features :

  • Choose your class and evolve it to embody omnipotence.

  • Buy Upgrade Runes to breathe new life into your adventure.

  • Discover new skills to gain more leverage during combat.

  • Defend the Anathema during battles to complete your redemption.

  • Listen to the Anathema so that its Faith in you never falters.

  • Never look back, or the Curse of Return will make your adventure much more difficult.

  • A rogue-like progression with classes and content unlocked with each run.

But when it's time for combat, you have no choice: you must destroy the enemies in front of you while defending your life... and that of the Anathema !
