What is Murim Survival?

This 2D pixel-art survival roguelite RPG takes place in a ruined martial arts world, where Sowoon seeks a cure for the Madness afflicting him. You fight enemy waves in 15- to 20-minute expeditions, collect equipment and martial arts, and face bosses. Repeated use builds martial arts mastery, while quests at the hideout let you recruit companions.

For you if...

+you like short runs against growing waves of enemies
+you enjoy collecting gear and trying different martial arts builds
+you want challenging bosses and persistent character growth

Not for you if...

−you want a slower pace without constant enemy waves
−you dislike replaying runs to beat difficult bosses

What players say

Players praise how easy it is to pick up and the ways to combine skills into stronger builds. One player says having to replay a map to retry its boss makes progression frustrating; earlier reviews complain about infrequent updates.
