# Rogue Battler > Overview Rogue Battler is a retro-inspired minimalist auto-battler with roguelike progression, where every decision shapes your run. Fight your way through a sequence of encounters, choose your path, adapt your build, and survive as long as possible in a fast-paced, strategic loop. Auto-Battler Combat Combat is fully automated. Once a battle begins, your character attacks, regenerates, and triggers effects based on their stats. Victory depends on how well you prepare: Attack, Critical Chance, and Speed define your offense Defense, Evasion, and Shield determine your survivability Health, Regen, and Leech sustain you over time There is no manual input during combat — only your decisions before it. Choose Your Path Before each fight, you are presented with multiple rooms. Each room determines the type of enemy you will face, influencing the rewards you can obtain. Choosing the right path is key to building a strong and balanced character. Every run becomes a series of meaningful decisions: Focus on offense, defense, or sustain Adapt to what the game offers you Bonuses After winning a battle, you will be offered a selection of bonuses. These bonuses improve your stats and allow you to shape your build over time. Each choice matters and can drastically change the outcome of your run. Blessings Occasionally, you will encounter blessings — powerful upgrades that act as enhanced bonuses. Unlike regular bonuses, blessings provide significantly stronger stat increases, but always come with a stat penalty. These trade-offs force you to think carefully before committing, as each choice can strengthen your build while introducing new weaknesses. Blessings can push your build to the next level, enabling unique and powerful combinations if you can handle their downsides. Roguelike Progression Each run is different. With randomized encounters, rewards, and upgrades, no two playthroughs are the same. Success depends on your ability to adapt, plan, and make the right decisions at the right time. Minimalist Retro Style Rogue Battler features a clean, minimalist visual style inspired by classic retro games. Simple visuals, clear information, and fast-paced gameplay create a focused and satisfying experience. Easy to Learn, Hard to Master The game is easy to pick up but offers deep strategic choices for players who want to optimize their builds and push further each run. Survive. Adapt. Choose wisely.
