Armed with scimitar and versatile whip, lash, slash, trick and trap your way through the City of Brass, a first-person rogue-lite of treasure, snares and ghoulish foes. Set in a sprawling, procedurally shifting city drawn from the fantastical world of the Arabian Nights, the tale casts the player as a daring thief with a single, all-consuming ambition: to reach the fabled treasure said to lie hidden at the very heart of a mythical metropolis. But the glittering prize is far from unguarded. The city's winding corridors, sunlit courtyards, and shadowed rooms are riddled with deadly traps and prowled by dangerous enemies, each obstacle standing between the thief and untold riches. Armed with a slashing scimitar and a versatile whip, the intruder must fight, outwit, and scramble ever deeper into the labyrinth, plundering wealth along the way while racing against time. Every step forward is a gamble, as the ancient city guards its legendary fortune with lethal cunning.
