Open it and fight. No sign-up, no login. On the subway, in airplane mode—one thumb, one minute. Stronger even in death. Stronger Even in Death is a portrait, one-thumb roguelike action game. Drag to move, and attacks fire on their own. Survive 60 seconds and the Boss arrives. Death is not the end—your Ledger from this run remains, and that Ledger becomes power for the next run. ■ One-thumb controls Drag anywhere on the screen to move. Tap to unleash Yul's strike. Attacking and aiming are automatic. One run on your commute, in quick 60-second bursts. ■ The thrill of the massacre Cut through hordes from four factions—undead, plague, beasts, and arcane—across 12 Chapters. Level up 12 weapons, match paired traits on tier-5 weapons, and they evolve automatically in battle: fire explosions, ice fields, chain lightning, arrow storms. ■ Regression — what remains after death When a run ends, Ledger Shards remain. Use Shards to open the Yul Tree, then use Edict Summon to call Allies and Relics. Summon currency is earned only by playing. ■ Allies and Gear Allies awakened from the Ledger fight at your side. Strengthen Gear dropped by bigger enemies at Camp, then carry it into your next Sortie. ■ Difficulty and farming Normal, Nightmare, Hell, Abyss. Run the same Chapter at higher difficulty to find better Gear. Get stronger, run again, get stronger still. ■ Lightweight Start instantly with no sign-up or login. Play without internet (only ad rewards and buying the Supporter Pack need a connection). Your progress is saved on this device. Sortie Tickets refill one every 30 minutes (up to 5), and one ad fills them right up. Your first 10 runs need no tickets. Other ads (Ally Summon, one extra Today's Challenge, 2x Supply) are only when you choose. Contact: travelic.games@gmail.com

Cursed by the Demon King, a hero and the fairy Pipi are trapped in a dungeon that changes shape with every descent. Defeat the Demon King waiting on Floor 100, break the cursed relic sleeping on Floor 500, and keep descending into the endless Abyss beyond. - EXPLORATION AND COMBAT ARE FULLY AUTOMATIC Your adventurer walks the labyrinth, fights monsters, and picks up potions, fire bombs, and treasure chests. You just decide how they grow. Progress made while the app is closed is waiting for you when you return. - UPGRADE, BE REBORN, GO DEEPER Spend gold to raise Attack, HP, crit, combo rate, and more. When you hit a wall, be reborn to earn Soul Shards and grow permanently stronger through the Soul Tree. - 4 JOBS, 8 EVOLUTIONS Choose Swordsman, Rogue, Mage, or Paladin. At JOB Lv.10, each JOB can evolve into one of two advanced JOBs, and you can switch between them at any time. - RELICS AND SET BONUSES Summon weapon, armor, and skill relics from the abyss. Duplicates resonate and grow stronger, and the right combinations trigger set bonuses. The Gems used for summoning are earned in-game. - A DIFFERENT LABYRINTH EVERY TIME Random floor traits and events, risky forks in the path, mini-bosses every 20 floors, a daily Cursed Labyrinth, and daily missions. - COMFORTABLE IDLE PLAY x1/x2 exploration speed (x4 with the Adventurer Pass), an Idle Mode that dims the screen to save battery, and a 30/60fps option. - COMPANIONS, BLACKSMITH, DAILY BOSS Bring companions you meet in the labyrinth.
