The Dark Dwellers

You will play as The Mortali, a nameless man cast into this dark pit as an abducted child, forced to grow up around death and misery.

In this dank pit of rot and undeath, take control of The Mortali, the newest member of ragtag-group The Dark Dwellers.

In this decrepit underground city, death is not permanent. The trapped prisoners whom call this place home live a life of endless torture and pain, and are maddened by constantly killing and being killed. Cast into the pit as sinners and criminals, will The Dark Dwellers find a permanent end to this torment? Or will they simply succumb to The Maddening Curse, and wander the darkness for eternity?

Résumé

The Dark Dwellers is a difficult Souls-like side-scrolling action game driven by a strong narrative and Metroidvania-esque exploration. Fight and crawl your way through this subterranean land, collect unique weapons, learn devastating Blood Magic spells and attempt to end The Maddening Curse.
