What is Her Name Was Fire?
Set in a nightmare shaped by the five stages of grief, this top-down action roguelike unfolds across repeated runs. You burn void creatures, gather their ashes to unlock spell and upgrade cards, and deactivate servers to confront bosses called Major Allegories. Defeating them opens the next stage and unlocks cards for future runs.
For you if...
- +you enjoy combining spells and upgrades while fighting enemy swarms
Not for you if...
- −you want cooperative survival rather than single-player runs
