Story & names

Below is an atmospheric action-adventure roguelike that follows a lone, tiny warrior arriving by boat on the shores of a vast and remote island. Drawn by mystery, the traveler descends into the island's ever-deepening caverns, a labyrinth of shifting, randomly generated depths shrouded in darkness. Survival is a constant struggle against lethal traps, hostile creatures, hunger, and the cold, with only a glowing lantern to push back the shadows. Told almost entirely without words, the game is a quiet, foreboding journey ever downward into the secrets buried beneath the island.
