Prepare to be Slain! Will you accept the challenge...
Players control Bathoryn, a hero in a Gothic world, seeking to liberate the 6 great towers from 6 deadly overlords.
Bathoryn must battle his way through a doomed land packed with gruesome pixel art foes before ascending (or sometimes descending) each tower, defeating puzzles, traps and monsters alike. At the heart of each tower, he must confront a mighty overlord. Defeat it and Bathoryn’s quest continues. Fail, and you’ll die gruesomely – mauled by werewolves, disintegrated by floating monstrosities, squashed by great weights or torn apart by hidden blades. And you will fail…
There are 3 key areas to be mastered in order to beat Slain! The order of Slain! goes as follows...
- Learn to wield 3 deadly elemental weapons, each one exploiting weaknesses in different enemy types. Each weapon has a different combo, timing and 'ideal' use. Mastering quick switching between weapons is the key to success!
- Learn placement and timings of enemies and traps
- Generate, conserve and use your mana wisely
Accompanied by the heavy metal visuals is an even heavier metal soundtrack recorded by Curt Victor Bryant (formally of Celtic Frost).

The Eco Domes is Valfaris' second level and, as you can see above, it's a dangerous place full of things trying to kill you. Bubbling acid. Toxic pollen. Giant bloodsucking bugs. Spiky balls. It's definitely no walk in the park.
Luckily, you get to collect your second Destroyer class weapon the Hellhammer just before you start the Eco Domes. As you can see below, it's pretty nifty at turning enemies into chunks, even when it's being used one-handed while dangling from a vine.
In other news...
If you're one of the hundreds of players who has participated in the Valfaris closed beta, please be aware that it will officially end this Monday, 12 August, sometime in the AM (Pacific Time). A massive, MASSIVE thank you for all the feedback and bug finding. Really phenomenal stuff.
During the course of the beta, well over 100,000 enemies were slain, while total player deaths surpassed 10,000. That makes... a whole heap of carnage!
Until next time, keep it metal.
