description Ending Overview

"Ending" is a minimalist turn-based puzzle game and roguelike developed by independent developer Aaron Steed. The game mechanics are based on deterministic movement, where every action taken by the player prompts a corresponding, predictable reaction from enemies. Its gameplay resembles chess puzzles, requiring players to carefully navigate compact dungeons and outmaneuver enemies without random number generation dictating outcomes. It is designed for players who prefer strict logic, resource management, and grid-based strategy.
