Brings what grabs you about Sifu: runs that differ every time, melee combat with weapons or fists and a demanding difficulty.

A VR sword-fighting roguelike where you parry, dodge and cast magic against waves of enemies. Each death sends you back to start, while upgrades let you shape your own combat style.

Ape Out

Lavish presentation

A frantic smash-'em-up where you play an escaping ape, using guards as weapons and shields. A reactive jazz drum soundtrack and bold graphic style turn every escape attempt into a rhythmic rush.

Thymesia

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast, punishing soulslike where you play plague doctor Corvus, relying on precise parries and dodges and on the disease powers of plundered weapons. Combat rewards aggression over turtling, set in a grim, decaying kingdom.

Warm Snow

Runs that play out differently every time

A fast-paced roguelike action game set in a dark fantasy world, where you play the warrior Bi-an fighting the Five Great Clans. Each run offers new weapons and abilities against tough enemies.

Underdogs

Runs that play out differently every time

A physics-based mech brawler where you smash rivals in gritty underground arenas using chainsaws and wrecking balls. Roguelike runs, 100+ items and shady gangster contacts keep each run fresh.

Phantom Blade Zero

Lavish presentation

A blistering kung fu action game set in a dark 'Kungfupunk' world, where the dying assassin Soul unravels a conspiracy through fast, parry-heavy blade combat. Its fights feel like choreographed wuxia cinema.

Skul: The Hero Slayer

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A fast-paced 2D action platformer with roguelike runs where you play as a tiny skeleton who swaps skulls to change fighting styles while slaying the human heroes who captured your king.

Dead Cells

Runs that play out differently every time

A fast, fluid 2D roguelite with Metroidvania structure, where tight, punchy combat and a huge arsenal of weapons make every run feel different. Permanent unlocks and new routes give you a real sense of progress even as you die again and again.

Astral Ascent

Runs that play out differently every time

A fast-paced 2D action roguelite where you pick one of four heroes and take on the twelve Zodiac bosses. Quick combat, plenty of spells and allies keep each run varied.
