Braise

One house. One flame. One more descent.

BRAISE: Le Dernier Foyer is a solo pixel-art action RPG roguelite about surviving the darkness and rebuilding a place worth coming home to.

The world has been swallowed by the Mist. All that remains is a ruined house, a fading fire, and you.

You are Aube, a wanderer with no memory, waking beside the last ancient Ember. Beneath your home lies the Abyss: a shifting dungeon that holds the kingdom's lost memories—and the resources you need to keep the fire alive.

⚔ Into the Abyss

Fight through forgotten caves, drowned streets, dead forges, a library of lost names, and the heart of the Mist. Read enemy attacks, time your dodges, land a perfect parry, and turn a full Ember gauge into a burst of blazing power.

• Six weapon families. Sword and shield, spear, twin daggers, hammer, bow, and lantern-flail.
• A different path each run. Explore connected rooms, treasure chambers, shrines, puzzles, hidden walls, and encounters with lost survivors.
• Build your own momentum. Combine temporary blessings with permanent talents across Blade, Bulwark, and Flame.
• Five dungeon strata and five guardians. Learn their patterns and recover the memories they protect.

🔥 Know when to come home

Watch your hunger, warmth, and lantern light. At a campfire, decide whether to return with your loot or push deeper for greater rewards.

If you fall, the Abyss keeps your unsecured bag. Your experience, talents, rescued survivors, and recovered memories stay with you. Even a failed descent can bring Aube closer to the truth.

🏡 Turn ruins into a refuge

Back above ground, slow down. Repair your home, place furniture on a grid, grow a small garden, prepare a meal for the next descent, and help survivors settle around the fire.

Comfort has a purpose: a warmer, more welcoming home helps you begin your next journey with more warmth and light. Every piece of loot becomes a little more hope.

🎮 Stay a little longer

Fish at the well, play Ash Cards, test your reflexes in POOOOONG, or follow the treasure in the Game of Masks. Discover keepsakes, change Aube's appearance, and let a small companion follow you into the dark.
