The run is already over. You won. This is the way back down.

THE DEBT is a turn-based reverse roguelike, played in first person. You begin at the top of the tower, at the height of your power, and descend toward the beginning.

Every door going down demands a toll. What you surrender doesn't disappear; it's waiting on the floors below, in other hands, pointed at you.
