Overview
Bonefall is a horde survival game rendered in pixel art, where the dead rise in waves every forty-five seconds. Developed and published by Alien Minds, this action roguelite puts you in control of a lone fighter who must hold out against an unending tide of skeletons, orcs, and heavily armored horrors that emerge on the tenth wave.
The game launched on October 30, 2026, and supports English, Korean, Russian, and Simplified Chinese.
Highlights
- Three distinct classes: Choose between a warrior who holds the line, an archer who trades armor for range and volume, or a mage whose staff keeps him alive while spells do the killing. Each class has its own weapon, skill tree, and playstyle.
- 45-second wave cycle: The core loop is simple but tense—survive the current wave, use the brief lull to reposition or drink a potion, then brace for the next surge.
- Roguelite progression: With a skill tree for each class and randomized runs, Bonefall encourages experimentation and repeated playthroughs to find the build that suits your style.
Who It's For
If you enjoy fast-paced action roguelites like Vampire Survivors or Brotato, Bonefall's bullet-heaven combat and hack-and-slash mechanics will feel right at home. It's also a great pick for players who appreciate pixel art aesthetics and want a game that's easy to pick up but offers depth through class variety and skill progression.
The game supports multiplayer, so you can team up with friends to face the horde together.
