About the Game

Strange sightings and rumours of monstrous creatures emerging from the earth. In MURK you play as a fresh recruit of the resistance movement known as Juslight, investigating the omnipresent megacorporation D.O.M.

You are sent by Juslight to follow up on reports of subnatural occurences around D.O.M facilities. As tension rises with every mission, an informant reaches out with information about what D.O.M is covering up.

Uncover the root cause of the spreading corruption, build your character to overcome intense encounters with an unearthing threat to humanity.

Fight to survive

The combat in MURK is an easy to learn, fun to master mix between melee and ranged combat. Learn the intricacies of each attack to effectively deal with any threat. Discover enemy specific interactions and exploit them to gain the advantage in battles against overwhelming odds.

Shape your play-style

Survival is a matter of resource management.

Use gathered materials to upgrade your ammo capacity or sharpen your axe. Unlock points to put in your talent tree, experiment with builds that fit your playstyle. Will you focus on speed and mobility, or heavy attacks to deal massive damage? Lean into melee to get up and close with the enemy, or keep them at a distance with ranged attacks?

The choice is yours.

Nature reclaiming itself

Find and fight your way through surreal environments, move from one safe space to the next and explore the otherworldly aftermath of natures' sudden reclamation of the lands. Buildings torn apart by natures' grasp might block your path, but can also open up unique ways to navigate levels. Think twice before beeing fooled by its beauty, you never know where danger lurks.
