An Ankou is an upcoming roguelike game focusing on your role as the mythical servant of death itself. Alkemi, the indie developer behind other whimsical games like Foretales, is delving deep into Pagan mythology for the inspiration behind An Ankou. Said to be the henchman of death, Ankou appears within folklore as a robed man, often portrayed with a scythe in hand. The gameplay itself presented by Alkemi for its take on the myth thus far is strikingly reminiscent of other brilliant indie gems, from Hades to V Rising.
