What kind of game is Rogueware?
Rogueware plays like a survivors-style arena game: your equipped AIs attack automatically, and you handle movement, positioning and choices. Beat mini-bosses to extract their cores, then decide which new appliance personality earns one of your three sockets.
What's in the demo
- 20 waves of enemies, mini-bosses and major bosses.
- Loadouts built from appliance AIs with different attacks and trade-offs.
- Level-up upgrades with several rarities, tailored to your equipped AIs.
- Salvage that improves your robot at the workbench between runs.
- Achievements, an AI archive and a lobby to explore.
