About this game
Delve into a 3D metroidvania world and uncover its secrets. Cut through hordes of foes and square off against colossal, screen-filling bosses. Every swing carries power and momentum in a ruthless, fast-paced combat experience. Sever limbs and trigger brutal executions. All the fun, none of the cleanup.
⚔️BRUTAL COMBAT⚔️
You're a small snail. Your foes are bigger, meaner, and out for blood. Flies swarm, rats stalk, and worse things wait deeper down. Impale the hardiest creatures. Finish them with bloody executions. Nature is brutal.
🤝LEARN AND GEAR UP🤝
Friends and mentors will teach you new abilities and guide you on your path. Hunt down and acquire powerful weapons and armour. You’ll need every tool you find to traverse the world and solve its puzzles.
🌎EXPLORE AND REVEAL🌎
Explore interconnected ruins and dungeons from a perspective you’ve never seen before. Squeeze into hidden paths, climb walls, and fire arrows at distant levers. Every obstacle you overcome pulls back another layer of a mysterious world.
🌱BENEATH THE ROOTS🌱
Venture through fallen kingdoms where nature is plunged into chaos. Whatever's killing this world is waiting in the dark place, deep beneath the roots. In your hands you hold the one chance to restore balance.
