A living grave swallowed a kingdom — cathedral, crown and court. Only the stone gargoyle on its roof would not digest. Descend the throat of Gravemaw, blast through five strata of the swallowed dead, and break the heart beating at the bottom. What stands still gets digested.

The descent

01

Spit stone. Dodge. Descend.

Aim in three directions — hold up or down as you throw. Walls and platforms block your stone, so position is a weapon. The evade dash buys a short burst of invulnerability: read the attack, commit, punish. Every stage runs on a timer, and when it expires the maw starts taking hearts.

02

Five kings, five ways to die

The kings do not share a silhouette, an attack or a way of moving. The Stone King buries the arena in rockfall. The Hollow King blinks out of reach and answers in radial fire. The Crypt God levitates over you and alternates fans with the ceiling itself.

03

Die. Bank your souls. Go deeper.

Every run feeds the Sanctum. Souls you carry out buy permanent unlocks — new cards in the pool, gargoyle skins, an extra heart to start with — and the Eternal Altar spends them on a stat tree deep enough to outlast many clears. Reach the bottom and the maw simply opens wider: New Game+ runs with harder fiends and richer souls.

Five strata

Five strata. Five kings.

Each act is a different layer of the swallowed kingdom, with its own palette, its own four monster species and its own king waiting at the bottom of it.
