Dinghai: The Ocean Pillar is an action RPG-roguelike set in the mythic world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, where ancient gods, demons, and forgotten powers collide.

Become the Abyssal Dragon, a legendary general who once served under Emperor Yan, stripped of his name, cast into exile, and slain in battle. For centuries, only a sliver of his soul survived. Now, through a forbidden curse, he seizes the body of Yi, an envoy of the flood-taming hero Yu, moments before death claims them both. Reborn in a form none could have predicted, the Abyssal Dragon walks the mortal world again, carrying centuries of unfinished business and a regret that even death could not bury.

Armed with a dual-weapon combat system, carve your way through gods, demons, and monsters drawn from ancient Eastern mythology. Every run is a fresh trial. Unlock new abilities, discover powerful combinations, and push deeper into a world that grows stranger and more dangerous the further you go. Death is never the end. Each cycle brings new understanding, new strength, and new pieces of a truth that has been buried for ages.

Explore a world torn apart by catastrophic floods and divine conflict. Uncover the fate of Yu, the flood hero who has vanished without a trace. Unravel the conspiracy that brought down Emperor Yan's reign. And confront the question at the heart of it all: what does a soul that has survived everything still have left to fight for?
