Rotwood is a roguelite that takes players through procedurally-generated levels. Each level is filled with various monsters and formidable bosses. Players can choose from a variety of weapon types, each with their own combos and movesets to pick up and master.

Every run offers various power-ups and abilities, so players will want to pick up what they feel is right for them to grow stronger. This emphasis on choice is further highlighted by the boss fights, each a test of skill and the ability to adapt to different attack patterns.

Players can choose to go solo or co-op with up to three friends, and battle across seven unique locations.
