About this game

Abhorrent Light is a dark medieval, non-linear hack and slash with dynamic scaling and loot. You are a bounty hunter, hired to protect the village from certain destruction. With an arsenal of weapons and items at your disposal, you must discover the source of the monsters that plague the village and defeat them before it's too late. Explore the lush environments and mysterious locations within the village and seek out more tools to help you face your enemies. Take on fearsome foes in epic battles and uncover the secrets of this once peaceful village. Designed with co-op in mind, play solo or with friends as you seek those that abhor the light.

  • Emphasis on melee combat - block, dodge, parry and slash your way through the world
  • Non-linear persistent world, dynamic enemy placement and randomized loot system enhances replay value. Approach the 3 main bosses and their respective locations in any order, it's up to you to discover advantages and disadvantages
  • Earn gold to buy new weapons or upgrade your current ones by defeating monsters and selling weapons
  • Play with friends for an even more intense experience

A torch is essential as you descend to darkness, there are many sconces to light the environment, you may even find other tools



Find or purchase the weapon with the best stats. Slower weapons generally deal more damage per attack. Sometimes a weapon is better being sold.
