"But the last in a succession of heroes

shall breach the Pit into which Morgoroth,

the Dark Hand of Dawn,

was long ago cast

and usher in

a new era."

A  traditional  roguelike  CRPG  I  created  for  the  7DRL  Challenge  2025.

FEATURES INCLUDE:

- Permadeath ;

- No  save  points,  but  two  unlockable  shortcuts  to  lower  iteration  time;

- Randomly-generated  dungeon  floors;

- Turn-based  combat  without  menus;

- Streamlined  control  scheme  for  modern  sensibilities  but  still  using  some  letter  keys  for  certain  actions;

- NPC  interactions  and  character  arcs  in  the  town  of  Wolfsburg  which  stands  atop  the  Pit;

- Weapons,  armors,  shields,  and  spells  to  buy;

- Three  possible  endings  based  on  player  choice;

- Limited  sound  effects  and  no  music  -  the  old  school  way;

- A  CRT  (old  TV)  filter  for  full  retro  immersion  (which  can  be  turned  off  with  a  keystroke);

- Windowed  and  full-screen  modes,  also  keystroke  controlled;

- Lore  connecting  to  my  tabletop  games  The  Dungeon  and  Grimspire.

- Secrets  and  nuances  for  the  player  to  discover.


FOR  FANS  OF:  Rogue,  The  Temple  of  Apshai,  Angband,  Sword  of  Fargoal,  Ultima  I-IV,  retro  games  in  general,  and  methodical  gameplay.
