About The Burrow Takes Heaven

The Burrow Takes Heaven is a dark fantasy top-down RPG with roguelite progression, survival pressure, and branching choices. Beneath the world, a starving rat-town claws out one more day through mining, stealing, prayer, and sacrifice. Each rat life is fragile, but death is not the end. What one rat learns, steals, builds, or destroys can shape the next.

Scavenge food, dig new paths, survive cave-ins, bargain with strange figures, face dragons, uncover hidden quests, and decide what kind of future your burrow deserves. Will you brave the deepest tunnels and become a hero, or seize power, break the old order, and take the town for yourself?

With legacy progression, dark humor, grim survival choices, and multiple paths to victory, every run pushes the town closer to salvation, ruin, or something far stranger.
