Occultris - summon your beasts!

There is an eternal battle between the occult creatures of the dark side! It is up to you to summon the right beasts that will dominate the attacking creatures and destroy their portals! Make your beasts even stronger by summoning different upgrades! If you succeed in destroying more portals than you lose, victory will be yours!


You have 4 portals from which you can summon beasts. They will walk straight on their lane to the other side and attack everything that will block their ways. To summon beasts, you have to equip the portal with one of the five beasts runes. Additionally, you can add upgrade runes to make them stronger. Their can always be only one beast rune on each portal. As soon as there is a beast rune, you can summon the beast and send it to the battle.

  • Arrow Up/Down or W / S - move runes between portals
  • E or Enter - place the rune on the portal; you can replace existing runes if the portal is full
  • Q or Backspace - summon the beast as soon as there is a best rune on the portal

Advanced Control:

  • Arrow Left/Right or A / D - rotate the portal to replace specific runes

Creature Domination

The diagram on the bottom center shows the creature domination relation. Each creature is extra strong against two other creatures. The line in the color of the creature shows which other creature is dominated by them.

Preview

Below the portals on each side, a preview of the next two runes is shown.

Playing Modes

You can play against an AI or a friend or even watch two AIs battle each other - just select the respective option in the main menu.
