Overview

Horripilant plunges players into a chilling incremental dungeon crawl, blending idle, puzzle, and autobattler mechanics within a forgotten underworld. You awaken as an old knight, memory lost, in the oppressive darkness of an abandoned dungeon. The air is thick with decay, and the walls seem to whisper secrets. Your only companion is a strange, defiant sprout, which a mysterious voice compels you to strike, yielding the first of many resources.
