About this game
Rogue with the Dead is a portrait-oriented idle RPG where players manage a hero's progression through automated combat and loot collection. The game features a high degree of replayability with roguelike elements and a focus on passive advancement. Some players feel its monetization model is aggressive and worth considering.
