SludgeWorks

Welcome to the SludgeWorks

A reality-warping cave network that stabs deep into the heart of the earth. Rampant forces of nature have caused evolution to go into overdrive, mutating life within beyond all plausibility. These caverns contains great treasures, but only whispers of its powers reach the surface. Mutated and feral, vaguely-human remnants of previous expeditions wander it's twisted caverns, shying from the light and stalking their prey. 

Can you survive the onslaught of the Cleansing Hand's pious bastion? Will the vampyric remnants of the Kyvan Company prevent your descent into the Screaming Ruins? Is it possible to enter the Cult of Eternity's palace of hedonism without being kidnapped?

Will you torch all foliage in your path, or become a living vessel for nature's experiments?

Are you dumb enough to impale a Bloodseeker?

SludgeWorks is a traditional ASCII roguelike game where you must explore your surroundings and learn about the world around you to survive and progress. You cannot ascend back to the surface, and so your only option is to descend. This game features permadeath - If you die, your save will be deleted.
