What is Son of a Witch?

This action roguelike dungeon crawler sends you through procedurally generated dungeons to fight monsters and bosses, collect weapons and pets, and search for your witch mother after the king's guards take her to the castle. You can play solo or in local or online co-op with up to four players. Standard runs have permadeath, while RPG mode lets you restart the last level without losing everything.

+you like trying different weapons, items, and pets
+you want a choice between permadeath and level restarts

Not for you if...

−you want fixed levels instead of randomized dungeons
−you prefer exploration without frequent monster fights
