## What is Ascension?

Lead a band of heroes down a road through seven dark fantasy worlds. Your party fights automatically, but choosing who stands together, when to upgrade and when to unleash an ability is up to you.

BUILD YOUR PARTY
Unlock ten heroes with different strengths. Bring a tank to hold the line, magic to break through enemies and support to keep the party standing. Change your formation to answer the fight ahead.

LEARN YOUR ENEMIES
Bosses bring shields, armor, evasion and other threats. Match their weaknesses with the right heroes, watch for special attacks and prepare your formation for Fate Seals. Boss encounters change between Collapse runs.

CHOOSE WHEN TO PUSH
Tap to join the fight, charge Fury and use your heroes' ultimate abilities. Turn Auto Advance off to farm a zone, spend your gold on upgrades and try again when your party is ready.

RETURN STRONGER
Collapse begins a new run with lasting progress. Spend Memory fragments on permanent talents and take what you learned further down the Road.

EXPLORE ACT I
Travel through seven illustrated worlds, from the Consumed Forest to the Threshold. A guided tutorial introduces combat, upgrades and the first major challenges along the way.

WHAT YOU GET
- Idle combat you can step into at any moment
- 10 heroes with their own levels, abilities and ultimates
- 7 worlds, 95 animated enemies and bosses
- Collapse runs with permanent Memory talents
- Progress saved on your device
- No advertising and no tracking of any kind
- Plays offline

FREE TO PLAY, OPTIONAL SUPPORT
Play Act I for free, without ads. The only in-app purchase is the optional, one-time Supporter Pack, which adds cosmetic effects: golden light, a guardian angel and golden Fury. It changes nothing about gameplay, and its contents are fixed, with no loot boxes.
