There are some who say there’s no such thing as magic… but what would the gods think? Based on the mythology of the Yoruba people of Africa, this unique battle-centric roguelite by developer Potato Kid and developer Acclaim is proud to announce the release of its official demo on Steam!

Explore a colorful, hand-painted world of myths and monsters as you battle your way through the ruins of a faith becoming forgotten. Through combat, you must cure the corruption of the old gods, and restore their memory and glory. In Takala, the fate of the gods rests on your shoulders.

All this and more awaits you:

• Dynamic Roguelite Combat: Every run offers new challenges and god-blessed weapons across 150+ weapon and skill combinations. Dodge, parry, and restore your way through corrupted spirits and twisted beasts in fluid, fast-paced combat.
• A Living Canvas of Culture: Every biome in Talaka is a living painting; from the arid Sertão and the vast Pantanal wetlands to the streets of São Paulo and the dreamlike depths of the Dark Orun.
• Face the Forgotten: The legends that once guarded these lands are being erased from memory, and as they fade, they’ve lost themselves to a mysterious corruption. Hunt them down, master their patterns, and fight to restore what the world is forgetting.
