What is Maldhalla?

Maldhalla is a single-player, top-down survival roguelite played in runs against increasingly strong enemies. Each character starts with a different weapon, passive ability, and active skill. You fight with melee and ranged weapons, use gems to raise stats, gather blessings from chests, and activate relics by carrying specific weapon combinations.
