About the game

The well has gone dry. It's up to you to find out why. Traverse through abandoned tunnels. Discover remnants of a ritual never meant to be seen. Power dying machinery to bring light into darkness. Dig into broken earth and crawl your way out. Down here you’re not exploring... you're trespassing.

    This game was amazing. Just the right length, the enemy encounters are varied throughout each section, the sound design is vile (in a good way). Just a proper good little indie horror game.

    An unhinged and intense yet relatively short horror game. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    If you want to buy this because you saw the chase sequence in a Youtube/reels review, don't bother. Even though it's really good, that 1 minute chase sequence is the only good part of the whole game. The rest is just pathetic puzzles (count symbols for a lock code) and bland horror segments (monster enters room -> you hide -> monster leaves).
