About Lunacid

Lunacid is a first-person dungeon crawler inspired by old FromSoftware games such as Shadow Tower and King's Field. Long ago a great beast rose from the sea and covered the earth in a poison fog. Since then, people judged undesirable are thrown into a vast well that has become a pit of chaos and disease.

You awaken in a moonlit subterranean world after being cast into the Great Well for crimes you cannot remember. The only way out is further down, where a sleeping old one waits. Along the way you explore interconnected ruins, flooded halls and dark tunnels, fight strange creatures and uncover hidden passages and secrets.

The game deliberately recreates the slow, methodical feel of late-1990s action RPGs. Exploration is driven by curiosity rather than markers, combat rewards timing and positioning, and the low-poly visuals with misty lighting build a dreamlike, melancholic atmosphere that suits its horror elements.

Lunacid is best for players who enjoy getting lost on purpose, mapping a world in their head and slowly turning a hostile place into familiar ground. It offers a compact but dense adventure with a distinctive mood that stays with you long after the credits.
