Bardo, a roguelike through the underworlds

Field notes

The described run structure combines combat and progression: players fight, receive boons, descend, and either escape or lose the attempt. Persistence is represented by a town between worlds, rebuilt from rescued souls and relics rather than by a conventional inventory alone. The site identifies three death-realms—Duat’s Weighing Floor, Niflheim’s Rime Court, and Mictlan’s Wind of Knives—and says each has distinct rules and trials. The Mac build is listed at 143 MB and requires Apple Silicon with macOS 13 or later.
