About This Game

THE HELL CLOCK IS TICKING

In the 19th century, a grim chapter of Brazilian history unfolded in the badlands. The settlement of Canudos had grown into a sanctuary for thousands seeking refuge. But when they defied the newly formed Republican Army, their resistance was met with devastating force. 25,000 men, women, and children were massacred.

Play as Pajeú, a warrior who earned his freedom in battle, fighting to rescue the soul of The Counselor—his mentor and spiritual leader of Canudos. With each descent, time bends, and your powers grow as you face ever-stronger horrors commanding the dark forces that claimed The Counselor's head and trapped his soul.

RACE AGAINST TIME

Every second counts as you battle the undead forces of your oppressors. Risk delving deeper for powerful loot and face the nightmarish incarnations of those who sought to bury the truth.

FORGE UNSTOPPABLE BUILDS

Hunt down ancient Relics infused with the strength of resistance. Create devastating combinations that channel Canudos's unbreakable spirit into unstoppable power.

UNLEASH HELLISH POWER

Master a diverse selection of devastating abilities born from righteous fury. Dance through hordes with lightning-fast knife strikes, smash enemies with Canudos' great bell, or rain rapid-fire death from your trusty sidearm.

REWRITE HISTORY

Each descent brings new chances to right historical wrongs. Discover unique combinations of Blessings to evolve your build as you face the demons of Brazil's dark past, present, and future.

FIGHT AT YOUR OWN PACE

Whether you seek a brutal test against history's oppressors or a thoughtful journey of justice, Hell Clock adapts to your path. Remove all time pressure with Relaxed Mode, or push your limits in Hardcore mode.

VENGEANCE NEVER ENDS

Experience a complete three-act story campaign, then test your perfectly tuned builds in the challenging Endgame, where your gear, abilities, and playstyle are pushed to their limits.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Hell Clock includes depictions of intense violence and historical themes that reflect the brutal setting of the War of Canudos in Brazil, 1896. Players take on the role of a character immersed in challenging battles and face enemies in a dark, atmospheric environment that may contain scenes of explicit combat and references to social injustices of the time.

While the game explores themes of resilience and justice, it portrays violence in a way that aligns with the historical and narrative context. There are no depictions of sexual abuse, drug or alcohol use, or other explicit sensitive topics.
