Throneborn, a brutal 2D hack-and-slash retro-inspired dungeon crawler, offers Souls-inspired combat and classic DOOM-inspired level design.

In Throneborn you play as Ulf, a once beloved ex-King whose kingdom was stripped away by an evil, unknown force. Dethroned, imprisoned, tortured, and demonized for half a century, Ulf is determined to take back his kingdom, and reclaim the throne he was born to rule.

Your goal in Throneborn is to clear a series of dungeons grouped together into episodes; each episode has a final dungeon focusing on a boss fight.

Dungeons pose many threats such as chain swinging skeletons and deadly traps. To help you along the way, look for special powerups and new items; these are often hidden behind secret walls.
