Epic Games Store is giving away a fast paced action platformer which throws you into a cruel merciless world of doom – ScourgeBringer.
The game takes you into a grim world where a massive monolith called the Scourge has wiped out most of humanity. You play as Kyhra, the toughest warrior from her clan, teaming up with her drone buddy, BLAST.32. Your job? Storm the ever-shifting halls inside the monolith, hack through robot horrors, and uncover the truth about the apocalypse—and Kyhra’s own hidden past.
The story unfolds in bits: voice logs from dead explorers, weird terminals, and chats with quirky survivors at the Chiming Tree hub. It’s not a deep epic, but these snippets build mystery. Multiple endings keep you hooked, rewarding deep dives into secrets.
Razor-Sharp Combat Skills
ScourgeBringer is a roguelite platformer built for non-stop action. Rooms seal shut, enemies swarm, and you clear them to move on. No hiding—pure aggression rules.
Kyhra’s moveset shines: quick slashes for close kills, a heavy smash to stun foes, and guns for range. Guns vary wildly—shotguns for crowds, snipers for picks, even wild ones like homing missiles. But the real star? Dashing. Air dashes, wall-runs, double-jumps let you zip like a bullet, chaining attacks mid-air. Combat feels like “Dead Cells meets Celeste,”: fluid, precise, and insanely satisfying when you nail a combo.
Bullet-hell elements ramp up the chaos—dodge swarms while slashing. Early runs punish standing still; later, mastery turns you into a blender. Bosses are epic: massive machines with patterns to learn, testing every skill.
Roguelite Loop: Die, Upgrade, Repeat
Death resets your run, but Judge Blood (currency from runs) buys permanent upgrades at the Chiming Tree. Start with more health, new dashes, or wild perks like auto-firing guns. The tree branches smartly, letting you tailor Kyhra—tankier, faster, or glass-cannon deadly.
Levels procedural: biomes shift from fleshy overgrowth to hellish voids. Find greed pillars for temp boosts, shops for guns, or logs for lore. The Chaos Root flips the script—spend points to amp difficulty for better rewards, perfect for pros craving pain.
It’s tough. Early hours feel brutal, but persistence pays. Accessibility helps: auto-fire, slower bullets, even immunity mode for story chasers.
Style, Sound, and Indie Heart
Pixel art pops with eerie glows and gore sprays. Environments ooze atmosphere—ruined tech fused with organic nightmares. Joonas Turner’s soundtrack (Nuclear Throne, Downwell) pounds with adaptive metal riffs that swell in fights, fueling your rage.
ScourgeBringer thrives on “just one more run.” That flow state—dashing through bullet storms, combos popping—addicts. Guns add variety; upgrades feel earned. Drawbacks? Repetition creeps in late, story’s light, steep curve frustrates casuals. But for action fans? Pure adrenaline.
Conclusion
ScourgeBringer proves indie gems can rival giants. Its buttery combat, killer tunes, and replayable depths make it a standout roguelite. Kyhra’s quest awaits – do not disappoint her.
