Shaman of the Depths is a hardcore roguelike that transforms real Paleolithic history into a fight for survival.
Descend into an infinite, procedurally generated abyss armed only with your wits and the 32 oldest symbols known to humanity.
Combine these ancient signs to cast powerful spells, heal your wounds, and obliterate eldritch beasts. With 46 unique rituals to discover and master, every descent is a new mystery waiting to be solved.
The depths contain a compendium of monsters including four ‘Standard Enemies’ that appear on every level and can be summoned by higher level monsters, five ‘Legendary Enemies’ with special abilities and five ‘Boss Monsters’ that rampage, summon minions and have special abilities and attacks.
Can you decipher the language of the ancients before the torchlight fades?
