About Trials Survivors
Trials Survivors is a roguelite that blends survivor‑style action with loot‑driven RPG depth. Players choose an archetype, manually aim a primary spell, and rely on auto‑targeted secondary spells while navigating fast‑paced trials. Each run offers endless upgrades, relics that boost stats, and the ability to level without a cap, encouraging chaotic, high‑density combat.
The game features five classes, seven constellations, and a relic merchant, all built to handle massive enemy and projectile counts. Early‑access content includes two biomes, 95 spell evolutions, and full controller support across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
01 / THE GUIDE
Classes and Archetypes
Players start by selecting from five distinct classes, each defining a starting loadout. These archetypes shape the initial spells and playstyle, allowing varied approaches to the trials.
While the class determines early abilities, all spells can be upgraded endlessly, letting players craft unique builds beyond the initial archetype. This flexibility supports both focused and hybrid strategies throughout each run.
- Experiment with different classes to discover which starting spells complement your preferred upgrades.
- Combine class‑specific spells with relic boosts for synergistic effects.

Spell System
Each run provides a primary spell that the player aims manually, while all other spells auto‑target nearby enemies. This design lets players concentrate on movement and survival.
Spells are hand‑crafted and can be upgraded endlessly, creating a wide range of possible synergies and damage outputs as the run progresses.
- Focus on positioning to maximize the impact of your manually aimed primary spell.
- Upgrade auto‑targeted spells to increase overall damage without sacrificing mobility.

Trials and Objectives
Runs are divided into Trials—cosmic challenges such as surviving a set time, defeating elite enemies, escorting relics, or destroying totems. Completing these grants experience and upgrades.
Each trial tests different aspects of player skill, encouraging adaptability and strategic use of spells and relics to meet varied goals.
- Prioritize trials that match your current build’s strengths for faster progression.
- Use relics that enhance survivability when attempting time‑based survival trials.

Relic Progression
Relics are permanent power-ups that boost stats like projectile count, pierce, chain count, and damage. They can be collected and leveled up, increasing capacity and enhancing spells.
There is no level cap, allowing infinite relic upgrades and continuous growth across runs, which fuels the game’s promise of limitless build freedom.
- Invest relic points in stats that directly enhance your most used spells.
- Balance relic upgrades between offensive and defensive stats for sustained runs.
