About


Encounter the monsters of Terastae that defied the virtues of this world and are trapped in a cycle of death and rebirth. Use your special ability as an Aethermancer to form bonds with monsters to guide your party of three through a sprawling world and dangerous battles. Make smart skill choices as your monsters grow stronger and find synergies between your monsters - making every one truly unique!

Fight ferocious enemies and divine bosses in engaging turn-based battles where every action matters! Manage and harness the four elements of Aether to unleash powerful spells. Consider your synergies and plan your monsters actions. Purge enemy Aether, grind your opponents down with poison, protect your allies with shields, focus on attacking with the right elements - you can pursue different strategies! But whatever you do, keep a careful eye on the HP of your monsters…

If a monster dies in combat, you’ll lose it. Permanently. But you have the power to defy death by rebirthing their souls. Don’t lose hope! Your monsters might change in the process, but will still be the same companions you once established a soul bond with and will grow stronger from their previous lives.

With every level up you get to decide in which direction your monsters will grow. Every monster has a dynamic skill pool that reacts to previous choices and other monsters you have in your team, enabling you to create powerful teams. Experiment with a myriad of unique team builds with every run!

Meet various characters who will help you and your monsters throughout your journey! Uncover their stories and dig into the lore of this world - all fueled by your choices and encounters. Help liven the village up by gathering townsfolk, hearing them out, and doing what only a true Aethermancer can do!

The Aethermancer has many faces - and each of them come with entirely new mechanics and abilities. Unlock new player classes to shake up the way you play and how you decide to build your party.


Use your Aethermancer abilities to explore, sneak and fight your way through procedurally generated levels while your monsters gain Worthiness. Keep going until you lose your monsters… then come back stronger and try again!

I have greatly enjoyed playing this game! I enjoy collecting monsters and mixing and matching the team comp. Perfect for fans of the creature collecting genre.
Great Game, have a lot of fun playing it from time to time

Fun combat and build combinations, a little light on content but still worth the money

The amount of abilities your monsters have can be a little overwhelming at first, but once you get the hang of it, there are tons of interesting interactions between the different monsters. Progressively unlocking new monsters and abilities means you always have a goal to work towards!
好玩,build类型很多,希望不断推出新怪兽,拓展新地图,建议怪兽本体跟异化版本作出区别,尤其是核心被动,这样会更好玩。
El primer juego de coleccionar bichos que pruebo que no es Pokémon y que no me hace querer volarme los sesos. Pros: -Buena variedad de criaturas, con muchos tipos de monstruos y roles distintos que pueden cumplir en el equipo, además de que cada monstruo tiene una forma alternativa que puede cambiar entre ligeramente y completamente su estrategia y sinergias -Diseño de personajes y monstruos 10/10 -Pixelart 10/10 -Bastante buen balance, una gran variedad de builds que son viables -Vicia bastante -Queda poco de early access pero está en buenísima forma de momento, teniendo ya muchísimo contenido -De momento tiene dos clases jugables, que tienen un impacto bajo-moderado en el gameplay. Una es buena con cualquier build y la otra amplía la variedad posible de builds al cambiar rasgos, ataques y tipos de tus monstruos -Combate bastante profundo fácil de aprender y difícil de dominar al 100% Puntos neutros: -Historia relativamente poco interesante en mi opinión. Hay interacciones aquí y allá que merece la pena leer pero en general no es estelar -La adaptación al castellano es funcional pero si hablas inglés mejor que mejor Puntos negativos: -De momento los tooltips son bastante reguleros. Hay veces que no queda del todo claro qué hace una habilidad o un efecto exactamente o cómo funciona esta o aquella mecánica hasta que trasteas un poco con ello -Se queda un poquitín corto de contenido para ser un roguelike con el precio que tiene, veremos cómo se queda el asunto con el lanzamiento completo -Poca variedad efectos visuales e iconos en los ataques En conclusión: creo que tal vez es un poco caro para lo que ofrece ahora mismo. Mejor pillarlo con un descuento. Lo malo dicho y esta idea sobre el precio puede que cambie cuando el juego salga de Early Access. A pesar de ello, es con diferencia el mejor jueguito de coleccionar criaturas que he jugado quitando Pokémon. Lo probé con un cierto escepticismo porque en concreto Cassette Beasts me decepcionó mucho, pero esto es genial. Tiene cosas a mejorar pero en general lo puedo recomendar. Veremos si cambia mi reseña cuando salga el juego completo
Eu estava procurando algo novo para jogar e não encontrava de jeito nenhum, comprei aethermancer sem muita expectativa e ele se tornou uma obsessão dos últimos dias, e isso que ainda será adicionado mais coisas até o lançamento final!! É um roguelike com mecânica de pokemon, você consegue capturar a ''alma'' dos monstros que você enfrenta durante as runs e usá-las no seu trio de monstros, cada um com suas singularidades tornando a retrojogabilidade extremamente satisfatória. O jogo é simples de entender porém complexo de se masterizar. A história é simples mas cumpre o papel, a jogabilidade é ótima! e o preço é muito justo
