Veles: Rise of the Damned

Kristian Iker

About this game

Battle through five cursed levels against 154 enemy types across 14 distinct archetypes — spectral hordes, wolf packs, enraged werewolves, ravenkin, spider swarms, corrupted treants, vampires, golems, and more. Every archetype has its own identity and traits: Ghosts evade, Werewolves fly into a fury when hit, Skeletons revive once on death, Vampires regenerate relentlessly. Waves surge relentlessly as the darkness closes in from every edge. Kill, collect, and survive.

BUILD YOUR RUN
Level up mid-run and choose from 14 unique abilities. Fire homing projectiles that chain between foes, orbit enemies in arcane fields, detonate AoE blasts, or stack passive bonuses that compound your power. No run plays the same.

5 DISTINCT HEROES
Each hero brings unique base stats, a starter ability, and a powerful ultimate to unleash at the critical moment. Master them all — then push further.

FORGE YOUR GEAR
Find and upgrade 50 items across five equipment slots — weapons, armor, helmets, amulets, and rings — from 30 types of components dropped in the field. The right loadout is the difference between surviving and thriving.

THREE TIERS OF CHALLENGE
• Mortal — learn the flow
• Broken — enter the run cursed with one random Damned modifier
• Damned — face three curses, earn the highest rewards, and hunt rare organs from elite and boss enemies only

Use the Gate of Hell to spend gold on blessed modifiers before each run — for a score penalty.

GROW BETWEEN EVERY RUN
• Paragon System — level each hero to Paragon 10 through boss kills and run completions, unlocking permanent class bonuses
• Rite of Ascension — spend gold and rare organs on a massive permanent skill board, unlocking global and hero-specific power nodes that persist forever
• Over 300 Quests & Achievements — track milestones across all heroes and difficulties and earn lasting rewards
