What is Voidwrought?

Voidwrought is a 2D action-platformer set beneath a star-scorched surface, where the newly emerged Simulacrum seeks Ichor, the blood of gods. Explore distinct regions, fight monsters and bosses, equip Relics and Souls to change your abilities, and excavate ruins to expand a shrine.

For you if...

+you like searching dark regions for hidden upgrades
+you enjoy building loadouts from active and passive powers

Not for you if...

−you prefer a guided narrative over discovering scattered lore
