## Description

Dive into a ruin that remembers you.

Ruinborne is a fast top-down roguelite. Pick a job, fight through chamber after chamber of the dead, and build a run from the boons and relics you find. When you fall the run is gone, but your job keeps its levels, so every dive goes a little deeper than the last.

**Five jobs, twenty classes**

Wanderer, Arcanist, Reaper, Hunter and Knight each grow through four classes, from Scout to Voyager, Sage to Archon. Each has its own weapon, its own skill and its own familiar that fights at your side and evolves as you level.

**Four acts**

Lantern Ruin, Ash Vaults, Pale Throne and the Drowned Sanctum each have their own foes, curses and an act boss waiting at the end. Clear them all, then unlock Endless and see how deep you can go.

**Choose your danger**

Between chambers you pick where to go next. Take a quiet hall, or risk a blood moon for more XP and Ash.

**Controls**

- Keyboard and mouse: WASD to move, aim with the mouse, hold the left button to fire, Space or Shift to dash, Q for your skill, E for your crystal, Esc to pause. Every key can be rebound in Settings.

- Gamepad: left stick moves, right stick aims, RT fires, A dashes, Y uses your skill.

- Touch: twin sticks on phones and tablets.
