Overview

About this game

Story Mode

Follow the story of Jake, who is retracing the footsteps of his father, a famous spelunker, and uncover family secrets as he descends deeper into the abyss of the caves.

No cheap jump scares - the main game fear factors are headlamp battery life and well… your nerves!

Horror Mode

Chilling experience designed to trigger your deepest phobias. Explore unpredictable cave systems where the darkness itself feels alive, facing a shifting variety of psychological and environmental horrors.

Tourist Mode

A journey through the infamous Nutty Putty cave, guided by an exclusive audio commentary from Brandon Kowallis, a real-life rescuer from the tragic 2009 incident and original cartographer who mapped its treacherous passages before they were closed forever.

Gameplay Features

  • Realistic Cave Layouts: Irregular, natural cave structures that avoid repetition or tiled environments. Expect steep climbs, narrow tunnels, and slides

  • Detailed Environmental Interaction: Players can move rocks, observe dripping water, and interact with reactive surroundings.

  • No Built-in Map System: Players must mark trails with chalk, promoting true exploration and self-reliance.

  • Tool Management & Gear Maintenance: Navigate the darkness using ropes and a headlamp. Maintain your gloves to ensure their reliability.

  • Free Climbing Mechanics: Climb any surface using pitons, choosing your own routes—no predefined climbing paths.

  • Breath Management System: Manage your breathing in tight passages.

  • Obstacle Interaction: Use tools to break stalactites, remove debris, and clear blockages in the cave system.
