About this game
Every floor is it's own world full of traps and enemies. Your mission? Survive. Fix the elevator. Go deeper. Repeat.
Team up with up to 3 friends to tackle the facility, you’ll need to work together, or split up to cover more ground. Just make sure someone’s there to pick you up when things go wrong.
Every time you play, the dungeon changes. No two floors are alike, and you’ll have to adapt to whatever the game throws at you, whether it's deadly traps, deadly enemies, or special challenges that’ll test your reflexes.
Dive into different environments. Each floor offers a different setting and atmosphere, telling an untold story kept from the public.
