About the Game



The King of Shades has cursed the great city of Icenaire. Now cast under a permanent blight of frost fall, its former residents have returned from the dead as mad Wraiths. Survivors take refuge deep underground where they lead a desperate campaign against this unearthly power. Woefully outmatched, they are forced into hiding as the King of Shades amasses an army of the undead above them. One fateful day, a mysterious stranger appears in the city with an enchanted vambrace. She may now be their only hope…



You are Evelia Lyric, bearer of the Aetherbrace and the only human capable of entering Icenaire. The survivors now look to you as their best hope against the King of Shades. Only one problem...you’re woefully outmatched, and survival is not guaranteed.

Vambrace: Cold Soul is a narrative-driven game filled with memorable characters, brutal challenges, and deep strategy. To succeed, you must choose perceptive party leaders, camp to recuperate, navigate strange encounters, and survive deadly combat. Will you scavenge for supplies to sell or use them to craft new items for your next expedition? The surface of Icenaire is cold and unforgiving. So, prepare your party well before departing...lest you join the cursed city's undead.

In this game, the difference between life and undeath all comes down to good planning and smart tactics!

I like the idea of Darkest Dungeon, but with more story focused and beautiful art. What I dont like is no real roguelike mechanics or RPG mechanics - meaning that there is no possible way to get better, apart from

What a beautiful game. To those who are on the fence. Buy it. Enjoy the story, enjoy the torture of making choices you can't save scum. Enjoy it for what it is. If you're looking for a battle sim, look elsewhere.

Sadly I can't recommend the game. The art is so beautiful, the scenery, the setting is great and there are tons of skins for your MC to unlock and they're all so great, it shows they've worked really hard on it.

A decent game held back by pervasive mediocrity and a lot of annoying design choices. Nothing about the game besides the art really stands out at all. The story serves its purpose but isn't anything special, the music

One big con: You can not save the game during the mission. It makes it not playable for people with limited time for gaming. I tried the first mission three times, never finished, because I have to stop playing and save

I really tried to like the game. 9 hours in.... And I can't recommend it. Before buying the game I've read other comments and thought: "Maybe the players are too picky?" But no... There are alot of frustrating things
