Abstruse is an upcoming twin-stick action rogue-lite video game developed by Vixentail.


Abstruse is a modern day nightmare of the barbaric fusion between sinister legends and the impulsive greed of humanity.

Invent your own playstyle and use your divine powers and weapons to extinguish the ever-growing spiritual and parasitic horrors within Tokyo before the imminent destruction of Japan.

You don't want to be alone on this journey, do you? Go grab a companion to keep your sanity. Will you disappoint the gods, or will you receive their gratitude?

DELVE INTO THE DEPTHS OF INSANITY!
Tokyo has suddenly been engulfed in death, destruction and disease all thanks to the unforeseen invasion of the Diabolical Foxes and the Corrupted creatures they have created.

By playing as one of four heavenly-selected Disciples, you’ll use your connection to the Abstruse to wield the unimaginable powers and weapons you’ll need to push through the ever-growing horde of the Corrupted and put an end to this chaos.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE
A messenger from the heavens has descended to aid you on your treacherous journey, and are willing to use their godly powers to enhance your abilities. For a more human touch, you can always rely on another Disciple to hold your hand.

IMPACTFUL DECISIONS
You must be careful when traversing Japan, the route you take will decide how smooth your future challenges will be.

DIVERSE ACTION
With the vast number of different abilities and customisable weapons to choose from, you will always find new ways to defeat the Corrupted.

BUILT FOR REPLAYABILITY
Thanks to the ever-changing world and a Game Director that is influenced by your actions, every journey will be exciting and surprising.
