Dokaebi Gate

What the game is about

Dokaebi Gate is a top-down survival roguelite for PC, drawing from Korean folklore. Players experience rounds of two minutes each, where they must navigate a dark environment populated by enemies that change every cycle. You control only your position as your weapons automatically fire at foes. The game emphasizes reading silhouettes and hearing sounds rather than relying on sight due to the pervasive darkness.

Combat and weapons

You can choose from 26 primary weapons, including items like a flashlight and a moon sickle. Each round offers the opportunity to invest in stamina, which affects the radius of light around you that reveals part of the environment. Players can also collect 45 support items that modify gameplay, allowing for various strategies and builds mid-run. Weapon evolutions occur when specific combinations of weapons and support items are achieved.
