Description

Every run forges a greater legend.

Achilles: Survivor is a fast-paced, single-player bullet heaven rooted in the myths of Ancient Greece. Step into the sandals of Achilles — or command one of the legendary souls unleashed from the depths of Tartarus — and carve through relentless enemy hordes. Erect powerful structures, evolve your abilities, and grow mightier with each attempt. Conquer your foes... or fall in the attempt.

The battlefield awaits — will you answer the call?

KEY FEATURES:

  • Breakneck bullet heaven steeped in Greek mythology. Endure wave after wave of relentless enemies in this top-down action roguelite.

  • Construction is your greatest weapon. Deploy traps, raise healing shrines, and call forth allies through a one-of-a-kind structure-building system that shifts the balance when survival feels impossible.

  • Command a roster of over 15 legendary survivors. Take control of Achilles or any member of an ever-expanding lineup of mythic heroes, each boasting a distinct playstyle and signature ability.

  • Meaningful progression that honors your time. Tackle challenges, collect Favors, and invest in permanent upgrades — every run makes you stronger, even when you fall short. Choose from multiple difficulties and game modes — normal, short, and endless — before each run.

  • Return to the age of mythic Greece. Traverse 4 handcrafted realms inspired by Achilles: Legends Untold — from the towering walls of Troy to the wind-battered coastlines of Greece.

CONQUER YOUR ENEMIES... OR PERISH IN THE ATTEMPT

Achilles has never faced horrors like these — and now the challenge is yours. Plunge into frenzied, action-packed runs and hold the line against relentless tides of enemies. Choose from dozens of powers and reshape them mid-run at the Forge.

The further you venture, the fiercer the resistance. No two runs unfold the same way — staying alive demands lightning-fast adaptation.

STRATEGIZE LIKE A TRUE STRATEGOS

Ignite the battlefield with flame turrets, establish healing shrines, or summon Myrmidons to battle at your side. Unlike other survivor-style games, the terrain itself can become your deadliest asset. Structures go beyond mere defense — they're precision tactical instruments for crowd control, sustained healing, and raw damage output that can completely reverse the tide of any engagement.

Just keep in mind — your resources won't last forever.
Build with purpose, and you'll last far longer.

HARNESS THE POWER OF MYTHIC HEROES

Achilles stirred up quite the chaos breaking free from Tartarus. Now lost souls that have no business roaming the living world are everywhere — and you happen to be one of them.

Unlock and master an expanding cast of heroes, each defined by a distinct combat style and signature ability. From Achilles' bone-crushing melee dominance to Paris' pinpoint marksmanship, Pythia's catastrophic sorcery, or Brontes' overwhelming brute strength — and that's merely a glimpse of who awaits you.

ENDURE THE TRIALS OF THE OVERLORDS

Each region unleashes fresh terrors upon you — venomous creatures, relentless long-range attackers, and bosses that offer no second chances. Study their patterns, refine your build, and weather escalating enemy waves until the Overlord finally emerges.

These colossal bosses won't wait politely while you prepare — flawed strategies will be punished swiftly, while smart structure placement will be rewarded.

GROW STRONGER AFTER EVERY RUN

Falling isn't the end — it's a step forward. Clear challenges to unlock new characters, claim treasures and Favors, and reinforce your stats through long-term permanent upgrades.

Push deeper each time, and carry ever-greater power into your next run.

JOURNEY THROUGH ANCIENT GREECE

Return to the world of Achilles: Legends Untold and lay waste to all who stand in your way!

Wage war across mythological realms torn straight from Greek legend, including the storied city of Troy and the sun-scorched shores of Greece. Every map brings its own objectives, rewards, and mythological dangers hungry to be overcome.

This game has some good points and bad points. The good, and what drew me to the game, was the experiment with having buildings. It's pretty good, and certainly differentiates itself from the crowd of roguelikes.

I really wanted to like this game, but I don't. - I play a lot of these sorts of games and I thought this one looked great. However, I didn't really like the gameplay loop, the upgrades don't really feel meaningful or

"Addictive Chaos Wrapped in Greek Mythology." I've played quite a few roguelike bullet hell games over the years and always enjoyed the genre, including probably one of the most influential games released this century.

Great pick up and play game. Works well on Steam Deck and PC. Vampire Survivors type gameplay but does enough different to make it worth playing.

Initially, the game felt so weird and a rather different concept to what im used to... Not having active skills for combat made me think it was lame, until i realised the nature of the game. Still, it can be

It's a fun game! It's not complicated and no drama. I like they have the short mode if you just wanna do a quick run to kill time or grind. Mechanics are easy to understand. Great soundtrack and graphics! Works well
