5* Action + Horror + Rogue-lite Experience You will be jump scared. You will be jumped to death. You will accidentally be your own killer. Your armor and weapons can break. Your weapons can be knocked out your hand and you may have to scavenge around for something weaker to return to the fight, or use your fists if picking up your weapon proves difficult at the moment. Your safe room, can become a not so safe room. You will find numerous loot spots locked and not be able to open them; unless........ :) This game is VERY VERY DARK: Do not try to change that or else you will miss out on a huge part of what makes this game a sweaty and scary experience.
The game is rough around the edges, but it offers a rare, thick atmosphere of a dark and dangerous dungeon. Both gameplay and style contribute to this. It's actually dark, and rare light sources intuitively are safe (more or less) zones. Ambiet adds up to this feeling. Cautious gameplay is rewarded without losing pace, thanks to the healing lights. While enemy variety is currently low, the level design compensates well enough to create diverse encounters. It's easy to become overwhelmed when rushing. taking enemies one by one is advised, at least for a rogue class. Character progression is interesting. While basic skills improve through use, more advanced abilities must be found within the dungeon. Attributes do not increase automatically, they are raised by completing "quests" and discovering secrets, which highly rewards exploration. These stat boosts come from permanent buffs or rings, and you can wear up to four rings at once (finally, characters with fingers). This progression feels rather fresh. I'm intrigued by the lore: it's standard dark fantasy at its core but with some unique details. Overall, a hidden gem. Wishing devs the best of luck. I would really like to stop getting stuck in chairs and flying into the air when rolling into spider corpses though.
I'm on a big grimdark kick and I love how difficult and gritty this is. It is a big change from most of the super-powered "You're the chosen one" adventure games out there because you're just trying to survive a cursed dungeon - it is tense and spooky without being a horror game. Devs, please do not make it easier. I love the challenge and I love your direction on this as of April 2026.
Stupidly hard game. However, insanely entertaining and it will absolutely suck you into the darkness. I have a lot of hours into it, and I am just now approaching clearing the first floor. Buy it, play it, get really (really) pissed off at spiders, get slaughtered and dive right back in. Do it!
