Absolum is a side-scrolling beat 'em up adventure that blends classic arcade action with modern roguelite mechanics. Set in the original world of Talamh, the game offers intense combat, deep progression, and a rich fantasy narrative. Developed by the creators of renowned beat 'em ups, Absolum delivers fast-paced, strategic gameplay with stunning visuals and dynamic encounters.

Gameplay

Absolum features fast-paced, skill-based combat where players chain combos and unleash powerful spells to defeat enemies. The game incorporates roguelite elements, ensuring each playthrough offers new challenges with procedurally generated paths and encounters. Players can choose from multiple unique heroes, each with distinct fighting styles and abilities, and team up in local or online co-op to synchronize attacks and dominate the battlefield.

Story

The world of Talamh has been shattered by a magical cataclysm, leading to the rise of the tyrannical Sun King Azra, who enslaves wizards and oppresses the land. A rebellion led by the high enchantress Uchawi and a band of outcast heroes rises to challenge Azra's rule. Players take on the role of these heroes—Galandra, Karl, Brome, and Cider—each with their own motivations, as they fight to overthrow the Crimson Order and restore freedom to Talamh.
