Test your adventurer mettle against The Isle’s procedural subterranean labyrinths. Explore a large, interconnected underworld crawling with cunning wildlife, deadly traps and stalked by a shadowy presence. Survive the perils of The Depths and unearth what lies below… or die trying..

Below is a procedural terrarium filled with life, mystery and death.

Key Features:

• Explore – Explore the vast subterranean underworld of The Isle: a dangerous, unfathomable deep.

Perma-death awaits at every false step, and there are no hints to guide you.
• Survive – Spelunking through The Depths of Below is a treacherous endeavor, with death around every corner. The world is alive with flora & fauna, and there are many ways to scavenge materials and harvest ingredients to create life-saving remedies or useful survival tools.
