About the Game

Pit of the Plague is a survival horror game that plunges you into the depths of a cursed mineshaft in a desperate attempt to end the plague that has decimated the world.

Armed with only an aging elevator and your wits, you must descend 100 floors into darkness. Crank the elevator to continue your journey, but be cautious - monstrous creatures and unrelenting hazards will stop at nothing to halt your progress.

Explore claustrophobic cave systems on each floor, scavenge for vital resources, and uncover cryptic letters that may hold the key to the plague’s origin. Use your findings to craft potions and purchase new tools, but tread carefully—every decision could mean the difference between survival and death.

Will you endure the descent and discover the truth, or will the plague consume you?

Key Features:

  • Tense Survival Gameplay: Balance cranking the elevator, managing resources, and defending against lurking horrors.

  • Claustrophobic Exploration: Delve into tight cave systems filled with treasures, traps, and secrets.

  • Resource Management: Collect ingredients to craft powerful potions and tools to aid your descent.

  • Atmospheric Horror: Immerse yourself in a world of dread with chilling visuals (inspired by that of the PS2 Era), eerie soundscapes, and unpredictable threats.

  • Mysterious Narrative: Piece together the story of the plague through letters left behind by a forgotten figure.

Descend into the Pit of the Plague and face the horrors that lie below. Will you reach the bottom, or will the plague claim you too?
