WICKBORN
The monastery of Saint Vell sank into the marsh three hundred years ago. You are a Wickborn — a body of candle wax with a living flame where your head should be. Every time you die, someone down there lights you again.

Who keeps relighting you, and why?
WICKBORN is a fast 2D action roguelite: dodge-roll through procedurally built levels, swap weapons and skills, break the guardians of each biome and come back stronger. Between runs, Sister Ondine trades the Embers you saved for permanent upgrades — and, slowly, for the truth.
What's inside
- 6 biomes: Candle Ossuary, Bell Foundry, Drowned Choir, Waxen Gardens, Clockwork Belfry and the Heartwick
- 24 enemies and 6 two-phase bosses
- 48 weapons, skills and relics — swords, bell hammers, whips, bows, bombs, parry shields, lightning censers…
- 4 Flames (playstyles), 5 permanent runes (double jump, wall breaking, water and spike immunity, time-slow)
- 7 endings (1 secret), 36 lore fragments, a hymn to piece together, confessions, a codex and 30 achievements
- Curse Candles (5 difficulty levels), Boss Rush and a seeded Daily Vigil
- About 10 hours to see everything · first ending in roughly 3 hours (estimates)
