Play as a raging dwarf and crush your enemies with mighty hammer strikes! Runic Rampage features brutal melee combat, badass bosses and a challenging hunt for the fragments of a legendary rune stone.
At the heart of the gameplay, players can execute a variety of devastating combo attacks by chaining together light and heavy strikes with the mouse or controller buttons. Timing and flow are key, as players are rewarded for mastering the cadence of their attacks to efficiently dispatch groups of enemies in spectacular displays of violence. Whether smashing foes with thunderous hammer blows or slicing them to bloody bits, the combat provides a visceral, skill-based challenge.
The game's levels are procedurally generated, meaning the layout and enemy placements change with each playthrough. This introduces an element of unpredictability, forcing players to adapt their strategies to the randomized environments. Despite the procedural nature, the levels maintain a cohesive visual style and sense of progression as players journey through four distinct acts, each introducing new enemy types and environmental hazards.
As players battle through the levels, they collect gold, rune fragments, and other loot. This allows them to unlock new equipment, spells, and stat upgrades between stages, with players able to invest points into attributes like attack, defense, and agility. While the upgrade options are relatively limited, the simplicity allows the focus to remain squarely on the core combat.
One of the game's strengths is its accessibility. The controls are intuitive and responsive, whether using a mouse/keyboard or gamepad. This allows players to quickly grasp the combat mechanics and focus on honing their combo skills. Combined with the procedural levels and short runtimes, the approachable design creates an engaging and satisfying hack-and-slash experience.
