The gameplay trailer for Elsie reveals what roguelike fans can expect from this game in terms of graphics, weapons, combat, and level-grinding.
In Elsie, the world of Ekis has divulged into chaos due to unknown forces. The Sapir Wharf, which is home to the Guardians, has been attacked by a mysterious robotic army. Elsie, the last remaining Guardian, must investigate the reason behind the attacks, the disappearance of her friends, and the truth behind her creation.
