Valor of Man

Step into Valor of Man, a turn-based roguelite RPG set in a world torn by ruin and revelation. Build your party of four champions from 12 unique hero classes, each with distinct roles and playstyles. Master the art of synergy as you discover and combine over 700 abilities, items, and game-changing artifacts. Forge your strategy and prepare for the trials ahead. Choose your path through procedurally generated chapters, where every step holds a risk or a reward. Will you rest, take a chance, or press into the unknown? Each run brings new encounters and discoveries. The full truth of this world is revealed only to those who return again and again.

Combat is built around a D&D-inspired turn-based system where every action is a contest of strategy, timing, and a touch of risk. With limited action points each turn, you must carefully deploy hero skills and items to create powerful synergies. Find the right moment to strike and unleash devastating blows on key enemies when it matters most. With each run, unlock new hero classes, uncover legendary artifacts, powerful new gear and abilities. Ascend through 10 increasingly brutal Valor difficulties. In this roguelite journey, death is not the end. It is a step toward mastery. Enjoy short sessions designed for endless replayability. Whether you seek challenge, lore, or the thrill of perfecting your strategy, Valor of Man offers a rich and evolving journey. Every step brings discovery and mastery.

  • Tabletop-inspired tactical combat designed for replayable roguelite sessions
  • Unique reaction mechanic evolves the board with every attack
  • 300+ abilities, 290 items, and 170 artifacts in the full game
  • 50+ distinct enemies and nine unique boss fights
  • 10 difficulty levels for escalating challenge
  • Controller and Steam Deck support at launch
