MidBoss is a turn-based roguelike RPG developed by Kitsune Games and released in 2017 for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Players control an imp — the dungeon's weakest creature — who sets out alongside a sidekick named Mid to descend through procedurally generated floors, defeat the final boss, and claim that position for himself. The central mechanic involves possessing defeated enemies and absorbing their abilities, with more than 60 unique skills available to discover across runs. Three difficulty modes accommodate different playstyles: a single-life Hardcore mode, a five-life 1UP mode, and a Narrative mode with unlimited lives and stat buffs. Additional systems include randomized potions, cursed and unidentified items, traps, and shareable death cards that record run details and can be used to replay identical seeds or spend toward starting bonuses. Completing the game unlocks a New Game+ mode. Accessibility options include colorblind modes, adjustable brightness, and high-contrast text.
