About this game
Children of Morta follows the Bergsons as they resist the Corruption. Choose a family member for an expedition and fight through procedurally generated dungeons toward a boss. John's sword and shield and Linda's bow illustrate how choosing a different hero changes your approach to combat. You can switch family members between runs, and leveling develops both the active individuals and the family as a whole. Characters do not die permanently, giving the continuing family a place at the center of progression. Pixel art presents their story, while local cooperative play lets two players take family members into the same adventure.
