Fighting through dangerous demon-infested dungeons as a soldier with shielding tech, capturing creatures turn by turn in a story-rich, pixelated cyberpunk world.

What players say

Opinion is split on Via Mortis. Players who warn against it call the game a low-effort RPG Maker asset flip with repetitive mazes, reused monster sprites, and a crash that prevents starting. Those who recommend it highlight multiple endings, capture mechanics, and challenging bosses as worth the price.
