More about this game

Aether Door: Elemental Depths is an action roguelike where you battle through floors of enemies. Your goal is to survive as long as possible, clearing rooms to earn gold and relics. The core loop involves defeating waves of foes, collecting loot, and choosing one of three mystery doors to advance. Difficulty increases with each floor, introducing tougher enemies and bosses every 10 floors. The run ends when your health reaches zero.

Tips

Fully charging your burst increases its radius by up to 270 and damage significantly.
Heavy strikes knock back enemies, giving you breathing room when surrounded.
Save your gold for the Shop rooms to buy permanent upgrades for your run.

Questions

What do the different doors mean?

Doors are a gamble. They can lead to Monster rooms, Treasure rooms with relics, Elite encounters, Shops, or Bosses on every 10th floor.

How do I heal?

You can heal by picking up certain relics in Treasure rooms, like Living Bloom, or by collecting runes dropped by enemies.

What happens when I die?

When your health reaches zero, your run ends. You will lose all your gold and relics, and must start over from Floor 1.
