About Crypt Custodian

Crypt Custodian is a metroidvania action adventure developed by Kyle Thompson and published by Top Hat Studios. Steam release date: 27 August 2024.

Pluto is a mischievous cat who has just died and, after a disastrous first meeting with the afterlife's guardian Kendra, is banished from the palace and sentenced to clean forever. Armed with a trusty broom, you explore the overgrown lands around the palace, fight beasts and bosses, solve puzzles and earn abilities that open new paths on the map. At the Sinner's Inn you chat with the other banished ghosts, learn their stories and upgrade your gear, all while planning an ambush to break back in.

Related Games

Pluto's broom-swinging trip through the afterlife borrows its map-unlocking rhythm from Hollow Knight, the hand-drawn insect kingdom that set the modern bar for interconnected exploration. TUNIC shares the small, cute hero and the habit of hiding secrets in plain sight, though its puzzles run much deeper. Death's Door is perhaps the closest in mood, another top-down adventure about death in which a tiny reaper collects souls through gloomy but gentle lands. And for anyone who finishes Crypt Custodian wanting a bigger challenge, Hollow Knight: Silksong continues the bug kingdom's story with faster, more acrobatic combat.
