Block Runner: Dmitri's Ascent

About this Game

In a dilapidated post-Soviet apartment block, each floor teems with hostile squatters, wary merchants, and eccentric hermits amidst graffiti-scarred walls and flickering lights. Players take on the role of Dmitri, a weary courier tasked with delivering a mysterious package up the treacherous stairwells, navigating danger and opportunity at every turn. Every ascent brings new challenges: combat encounters, rare upgrade finds, or tense negotiations in the haunting atmosphere of decaying urban life. Progress is shaped by choices and resourcefulness as Dmitri adapts to shifting threats and fleeting alliances. The game’s low-resolution pixel art evokes the bleak, gritty spirit of Eastern Europe, immersing players in a relentless climb through hardship and hope.
