Auto-fire your way through a 20-stage descent as Les Bones, a necromancer with a grudge. Draft 10 weapons and their evolutions, dodge 10 telegraphed bosses, and snowball one build into an apocalypse. Die, bank your Bone Shards, come back nastier. A fast, gothic bullet-heaven roguelite.
THE GRAVE PROVIDES
You are Les Bones β a necromancer with a grudge and an army of one. Twenty stages stand between you and the throne of Ossuar, the Bone King. Your spells fire themselves; your only job is to move, position, and live. Everything you kill makes the next thing easier to kill... until it doesn't.
Les Bones is a fast, gothic bullet-heaven roguelite: one snowballing build, ten hand-authored bosses, and a horde that never stops pouring out of the dark.
ONE RUN. ONE BUILD. EVERYTHING ON THE LINE.
- A 20-stage descent β ten short survival stages, each capped by a boss. No stage resets. Your build carries the whole way down.
- Snowball or die β level up, draft 1 of 3 weapons, evolutions, or passives, and watch a trickle of bolts become a screen-clearing storm.
- Death ends the run β but your Bone Shards don't. Bank them, buy permanent upgrades at the Bone Shop, and come back meaner.
AN ARSENAL WORTH DYING FOR
- 10 weapons β Bone Bolt, Bone Spray, Orbiting Skulls, Grave Nova, Bone Whip, Bone Chain, Bone Traps, Bone Boomerang, the Grave Chill aura, and homing Wraith Skulls.
- Every weapon evolves β six levels and a signature evolution each. Hold up to six at once and stack them into overkill.
- 10 passives β lifesteal, projectile speed, faster ultimate charge, and more, to bend your build in a direction.
- The Bone Nova ultimate β charge it, then detonate a shockwave that flings the horde off you.
TEN BOSSES THAT HIT BACK
- Hand-authored, not recycled β Rattlejaw, Cinderlich, The Hollow Choir, The Pale Shepherd, and Ossuar the Bone King, each with its own name, look, signature attack, and last words for you.
- Readable, dodgeable danger β bosses fight in a rhythm of telegraphed windups and openings. Learn the tell, punish the lull.
- No camping β they smash through walls, and below 40% HP they enrage: faster, meaner, out of patience.
NORMAL OR HARD β YOUR CALL
- Two difficulty modes β cut your teeth on Normal, or take Hard for denser hordes and tougher, tankier bosses.
- Separate progression per mode β Normal and Hard each keep their own Bone Shards, upgrades, and records. Hard is a fresh mountain to climb, not a victory lap with a maxed build.
FIVE REALMS OF THE DEAD
From the Greenwood through a ruined Village, a bleached Desert, the Frostgrave, and down into the Crypt itself β every realm brings its own hordes, hazards, music, and mood.
