Fight against the horrors of the halls

Halls of Torment is a pay-to-play game that takes players on a nostalgic journey back to the late 90s with its pre-rendered retro look reminiscent of classic role-playing games. In this horde survival game, players must choose a hero character and descend into the treacherous Halls of Torment, where they'll face off against unholy horrors from beyond.

The objective is to survive wave after wave of enemies until finally confronting one of the tormented lords in an epic battle. With quick and casual runs lasting a maximum of 30 minutes, Halls of Torment offers bite-sized gameplay sessions that are perfect for both short bursts of playtime and longer sessions.

Great progression and diverse elements

Halls of Torment features quest-based meta progression, allowing players to advance their hero by acquiring character traits, abilities, and items. Each run presents an opportunity to create a new powerful build, thanks to the diverse selection of available abilities, traits, and items. Discovering new powerful items during exploration enables players to venture even deeper into the abyss of the halls.

Additionally, players will encounter different bosses with unique mechanics and attack patterns, adding an exciting challenge to the gameplay. Successfully defeating bosses will reward players with valuable items that can be retrieved from the overworld and used to customize future runs. This feature enhances replayability and encourages players to experiment with different strategies. The game also offers a wide range of interesting characters, each with its own playstyle, providing players with numerous options to suit their preferred approach.

One notable feature of the game is its interactive environment. Players can strategically use traps and hazards to their advantage, adding an extra layer of tactical gameplay and allowing for creative approaches to combat. However, it's important to note that this game contains cartoon violence primarily directed toward undead and demonic creatures. While there is some gore, it is presented from a top-down, non-detailed perspective, ensuring that the game remains within the bounds of its retro aesthetic.

New content, plus more localizations

In this update, HoT will be available in a wide range of languages, including Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Korean, German, Polish, Italian, Japanese, French, English, Ukrainian, Russian, Czech, and Portuguese. You can easily switch to your preferred language using the newly added language selection feature in the game settings.

Beyond these extensive translation options, the update also brings a wealth of new content. Among the notable additions are three unique gloves—Bloodstained Wrappings, Thundercharged Gauntlets, and Frost Thorns—each offering distinct abilities and enhancing the gameplay experience. Additionally, it introduces new features, such as various new glove variants, an array of new quests and achievements, and a series of balancing adjustments. It also includes numerous bug fixes to enhance overall gameplay stability and performance.

Ideal for fans of RPGs

Overall, Halls of Torment delivers an engaging and nostalgic experience for fans of classic RPGs. With its quick runs, retro art style, diverse abilities and items, challenging bosses, and interactable environments, the game offers a satisfying blend of action, strategy, and exploration. Embark on an epic journey into the Halls of Torment, unleash your hero's potential, and overcome the unholy horrors that await.
