Developer Old Skull Games has revealed Cryptic Path, a roguelite dungeon crawler that promises to challenge the limits of the genre. The game will allow players to carve their own path through thousands of possibilities in an ever-changing maze. It is scheduled to release in Early Access for PC via Steam in 2024. Here’s a summary of the game according to its Steam page:
Cryptical Path is an exciting roguelite dungeon crawler that redefines the standards of the genre. Embody the Architect, build your own path and tame an ever-changing labyrinth in which you have become trapped. Tired of other roguelites where random generation seems like a joke? Welcome to Cryptical Path, where the tables have turned! Forget the capricious twists and turns of procedural dungeons, here you are the master Architect. Cryptical Path is not just another rogue-lite, it pioneers a new genre as the first rogue builder, allowing you to express your creativity through thousands of possibilities.
Forge your way through meticulously curated rooms, sculpting an adventure that reflects your distinctive style and strategy! Escape the ominous depths of Hexium, a prison forged by your own hands to confine malevolent souls. Unravel the mysteries of your creation and navigate a treacherous landscape, where every shadow hides a potential threat and every step brings you closer to the wrath of those you have condemned to an eternity of darkness.
Players can anticipate a unique experience in which their ability to design their own destiny in the game will be as crucial as their ability to navigate the changing challenges of the maze. Cryptical Path promises to be an exciting addition to the world of roguelites and dungeon crawlers.
