How it feels

A tense, tactical roguelike where you scavenge and rebuild your robot body from salvaged parts in a procedurally generated sci-fi dungeon.

What players say

Players say Cogmind is one of the deepest traditional roguelikes, with content so vast that even hundreds of hours in they keep discovering new areas and builds. The game stands out for its sound design and the way equipment degrades and breaks, forcing players to adapt their strategy on the fly. A few players note the game looks intimidating but becomes manageable once you accept losing items.
