GAME OUTLINE
Bound by Death is a cooperative hack 'n' slash built around fast, action-driven combat and tight collaboration between two players. Each character fulfills a distinct role, Lýriel delivers ranged multi-shot pressure with high mobility, while Death acts as the melee frontline with crowd control and durability. Players must coordinate spacing, timing, and abilities to overcome enemy encounters.
Beyond combat, the game features environmental puzzles, traps, and small cooperative challenges that reinforce teamwork and create mutual dependence between players.
The core mechanic uniting the entire experience is the Bound, a shared system that links both characters and influences how they fight, move, and interact with the world. This bond shapes both gameplay and narrative as players progress through the collapsing kingdom of Lýndoril.
