Gameplay

Demeo is a tabletop-themed role-playing game with survival elements. It borrows from classic tabletop games Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons. The main objective is to get to the "Nevermost Catacombs" and defeat the enemy there. This requires clearing the floor of the "Elvian Necropolis".

On each floor a monster holds the key to the floor exit to get to the next floor. The four available heroes are The Guardian, The Assassin, The Sorcerer, and The Hunter, each with their own abilities. The two modes are Skirmish and Multiplayer. In Skirmish Mode the player controls up to three characters.

Development

The game was developed and published by Swedish company Resolution Games on May 6, 2021. After the launch, Resolution Games announced a road-map for more content. This content included "Roots of Evil", a new place for players to hangout titled "Players Hangout", and a PC edition.

Reception

Demeo received "generally favorable reviews" according to review aggregator Metacritic.

During the 25th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences nominated Demeo for Immersive Reality Game of the Year.
