Possession

About

Possession is a roguelike RPG where you control a ghost navigating a hostile underground world. Each run sees you scavenging for power by inhabiting enemy bodies to gain new abilities and temporary strength. Your ghost form is fragile so survival hinges on smart choices about which hosts to take over and when to retreat. Combat feels tense with permadeath always lurking just one misstep away. The game’s strength lies in its evolving playstyles. Over 20 distinct monster types offer varied tools from brute force to stealth. A 78% rating on Steam reflects its addictive difficulty curve. Runs rarely last long but each ends with lessons about adapting to the ever-changing threats below. The minimalist art style keeps focus on the strategic back and forth between vulnerability and power.
