Caves of Qud is a science fantasy roguelike epic steeped in retrofuturism, deep simulation, and swathes of sentient plants. Come inhabit a living, breathing world and chisel through layers of thousand-year-old civilizations. Decide: is it a dying earth, or is it on the verge of rebirth?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do anything and everything. Caves of Qud is a deeply simulated, biologically diverse, richly cultured world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DEEP PHYSICAL SIMULATION \u2014 Don\u2019t like the wall blocking your way? Dig through it with a pickaxe, or eat through it with your corrosive gas mutation, or melt it to lava. Yes, every wall has a melting point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FULLY SIMULATED CREATURES \u2014 Every monster and NPC is as fully simulated as the player. That means they have levels, skills, equipment, faction allegiances, and body parts. So if you have a mutation that lets you, say, psionically dominate a spider, you can traipse through the world as a spider, laying webs and eating things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DYNAMIC FACTION SYSTEM \u2014 Pursue allegiances with over 70 factions: apes, crabs, trees, robots, and highly entropic beings, just to name a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RICHLY DETAILED SCIENCE FANTASY SETTING \u2014 Over fifteen years of worldbuilding have led to a rich, weird, labyrinthine, one-of-a-kind storyworld, layered on top of the simulation, all for you to explore. Live and drink, friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TACTICAL GAMEPLAY \u2014 Turn-based, sandbox exploration and combat offers as many solutions as you and your mutations, implants, artifacts, and skills are creative enough to invent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16112,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-17431","hry","type-hry","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","hry-category-adventure","hry-category-multiplayer","hry-category-pvpve","hry-category-rpg"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
