Karma Keepers is an idle management game where you convert drifting souls into workers, assign them to production chains that generate faith, then defend your realm from encroaching shadows and corrupting demons. As you automate your economy with blessings and miracles, you'll periodically ascend to gain permanent bonuses and restart with better strategies. It's designed for relaxed, self-paced play rather than frantic action.

About this game

**Karma Keepers is a chill idle/incremental strategy game about restoring wandering souls, putting them to work, and building a realm that can eventually run on its own.**

**This page contains the demo. [The full game launches on Steam on August 13, 2026.](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3979140/Karma_Keepers/)**

#### Build a realm that can run itself

Start with a Totem and a few Lost Souls drifting around. Restore them so they become Keepers, give them jobs, and begin building your Faith economy.

Prayers feed Faith into Totems, Extractors pull it back out, and Recollectors gather loose Faith before it fades. Once the routine work is covered, you can focus on what your realm needs next.

#### Keep Corruption under control

Corruption Waves reduce the Karma of every soul in your realm. If a Lost Soul falls too low, it becomes a Shadow. Shadow Incursions bring even more trouble and can quickly disrupt a setup that seemed to be working fine.

Keeper Warriors fight back, Evangelists restore souls, and Sacred Walkers create Sacred Zones. You can step in yourself or prepare the realm to handle more of the pressure without you.

#### Break through Karma tiers

Collected Faith becomes Karma through your realm's Influence. Fill the Karma Bar to earn Ascension Points and push toward the next tier.

Higher tiers bring Demon Incursions. Demons arrive with shields and stop your progress until you defeat them. You can damage them yourself, and your Keeper Warriors can join the fight.

#### Rebirth and start stronger

Blessings improve the current realm with stronger Totems, new Keeper roles, safer Incursions, and more automation. Miracles use Aether to unlock larger upgrades.

When you are ready, use Divine Rebirth. Your current realm ends, but your Ascension Points remain. Spend them on permanent upgrades and begin again with a stronger foundation.

#### About the demo

The demo takes you through the beginning of your first realm and the first Karma tier. Once you reach the demo limit, you can keep playing, but no additional Karma tiers or Miracles will unlock.
