About This Game

Keeper’s Toll is an action/arcade roguelite grounded in dark fantasy elements. Keeper’s Toll places a heavy focus on slow-paced, skill-based gameplay and intricate boss fights.

The game controls like a top down beat-em-up with auto attacks that primarily go off in the direction your character is facing. There is no twin stick controls or mouse aiming.

In the complete version of the game, you can unlock and play as one of 6 unique risen heroes. Currently there are 3 character classes available to play: Bogatyr, Necromancer and Ranger. Each hero has their own specialized game-defining mechanics, as well as completely unique abilities and meta progression.

• Bogatyr – A renown knight who fell in battle. This hero, stalwart and hardy, focuses on heavy defenses and uses the power of the gods to imbue earth into his short range attacks.
• Pyromancer – A nomad who was imprisoned until his demise. This hero uses the ancient elemental art of Pyromancy. His wide chaotic attacks sweep the lands and incinerate his enemies.
• Necromancer – A duke who succumbed to the dark arts. This hero reanimates the husks of the dead to do his bidding. He channels an array of spirit attacks and thrashes his enemies at close range with his flail.
• Ranger – A warden who lost her life defending the wildwood. This hero uses her innate agility to weave in and out of battle. In the shadows she sets deadly traps and as her enemies close in she unleashes a torrent of arrows.
• Shadow Monk – Born from darkness and forged by tragedy, the shadow monk walks the path of vengeance, embracing the shadows as his deadliest ally. This hero utilizes his fast reflexes to pummel his enemies with quick strikes. Weaving in and out of combat he can unleash disabling combos.
• Blood Maiden – An armor-clad maiden who was sacrificed by a religious sect. This hero uses her sanguine glaive to release a flurry of sweeping strikes. Trailing the blade is an endless downpour of corrupted blood.

Each run allows you to study your enemies and hone your skills. Once you have mastered the basics, Soul Survivors introduces many unique enemy archetypes, exciting boss designs, fresh mechanics and a specialized hero system.

Unlock and explore 2 different lands, with a total of 4 planned when the game is complete. Each land has its own unique bosses, enemy archetypes and environmental hazards.

• Linden Forest – A once green pasture now lies in ruins. The guardians of this forest haunt it from the very graves they built.
• Usvit Castle – The shining light from the days of old. A demonic presence often heard but never seen, ushers waves of fear throughout the castle walls.
• Usvit Depths – The old servants’ quarters. Now a slime ridden passage where not even the bravest adventurers set foot.
• Ashendusk Mountains – Rivers of lava run through these scorched lands. Denizens of fire invoke fear and incinerate ill-prepared adventurers.
