Here is an overview of the game:
You seek untold riches, eternal life, divine powers—it leads to this accursed temple, a seemingly-infinite labyrinth of bottomless pits, deadly traps, and monsters.
- Use Weapons, The Environment, Your Brains, and Skills to Defeat the Temple – Collect mystical Relics and an arsenal of weapons to make yourself unstoppable. Battle through hordes of enemies in dark, cavernous passages filled with traps and secrets of all sorts – fire-spewing statues, explosives, hidden spikes, and worse.
- Play Your Way and Turn Curses to Your Advantage – Corruption builds in you with every step – encourage or ignore it, but each powerful curse can be a double-edged sword.
- Greed Will Kill You, Greed Will Save You – Your greed will lead you to death, but that is not an escape. Rise to fight again. Delve deeper again. Defy the malignant deities that linger in this place.

- Light and fire will be your best allies to overcome the threats that lie in the shadows.
- Unique curses influence each attempt, putting a twist on every action.
