Dive deeper into this update on the Hell Clock Steam blog:
Hell Clock combines the RPG depth of Diablo and Path of Exile with the speed and one-more-run nature of a roguelike. Forge powerful builds with endless loot in this relentless combination of both genres, blasting through dungeons, forging unstoppable builds, and unleashing hellish powers in a race against the clock. Made by a Brazilian development team and steeped in Brazilian culture and history, Hell Clock is a dark re-telling of the real story of the 1896 Canudos Massacre.
