Gods of the Grid

Match runes. Channel the gods. One life per run.

A match-3 roguelike RPG set in Greek myth. Nine realms, and a board that fights back.

Match runes, command the battle

Skulls strike, hearts heal, shields soak damage before your health, coloured runes bank mana for your spells. Match four to blast a row and column, five to wipe a whole colour. Both earn another turn.

Every foe has a tell

Each enemy hides an elemental weakness and a resistance, revealed only as you fight. Read it and your damage leaps. Miss it and you stall.

Build a run

Six classes, each with a signature spell that replaces one of your own. Level up, take one of three boons, and claim relics that rewrite how you fight.

Choose the road

Between fights, heal at a Shrine, gamble with the Oracle, or riddle with the Sphinx. Before every boss there is a Merchant. Spend your gold, or meet the god without it.

Die. Keep the legend.

Death relocks the realms but never takes your feats or your Favor. Spend it at the Temple to unlock classes and relics for good.
