Game overview

What is Guildrun?

Guildrun is a single-player PvE roguelike autobattler from developer Leyline. The Guildrun Game asks you to draft a flexible party, position heroes before combat, and adapt each run around randomized specializations, items, and relics. Battles resolve automatically, but the important decisions happen between encounters: recruiting heroes, ranking them up, changing class paths, improving the frontline, and deciding when a risky pivot is worth it. The free Steam demo launched on July 16, 2026, with support for Windows and macOS. It includes 25 heroes, 180 specializations, more than 300 relics, over 100 items, eight escalating difficulty levels, and Endless Mode. There is no PvP timer or matchmaking pressure, so players can study every offer and build at their own pace.
