About the Game

DEATH PENALTY is a perilous dungeon crawling game where the odds are stacked completely against a human like you. Your only hope at survival is to carefully traverse the demonic fortress by lurking in the shadows and scavenging for anything that might give you a fighting chance.

Tread lightly. Lurk in the shadows. Getting discovered is a death sentence. They'll tear you to shreds if you leave them any opening.

You'll have to use clever tactics and stolen weapons to even have a chance of gaining the upper hand.

Navigate the sprawling, interconnected corridors. You'll need to go deeper if you want to see the light of day again. Unlock the dungeon from the inside out. There's got to be a way.

You're practically naked. Scavenge the bodies of those before you. Treat your wounds, arm yourself, and take back your life.
