Greetings, mortals!

Death still misses you, and previous opponents weren't enough, so we are launching the third wave of our closed playtest for those who are ready to face the challenge.

This is a major update that completely transforms the gameplay experience – practically a whole new game. We’ve overhauled the core systems to make your battles even more intense.

What’s changed:

Updated tutorial
Redesigned mini-games (roulette, dice station, wheel of fortune)
Death is now manipulating the results too
HP and healing system (HP is no longer tied to gold)
Added poker hands
Meta-progression (quest selection and permanent upgrades)
Added Black market, where you can buy expensive items any time

The game has evolved. I have evolved. Are you ready to try and cheat me again?

And remember: your souls are still MINE!
