Game Description
Imagine if you woke up one morning and the world was in ruin, the cities and empires of humanity destroyed in the blink of an eye, and massive guilt weighs on your heart. That is the world of Baroque, where it falls to you to find understanding and absolution at the bottom of a mysterious and massive tower. Create every aspect of your character from the ground up, and continue to shape that character with a vast collection of weapons and items, as well as stat-boosting parasites which combine to increase their power.
