What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a small and independent studio, Early Access allows us to gather important feedback from players. This helps us to refine and improve the game, but also to come up with new ideas as we work towards full release in 2025 together with the community.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are aiming to release the full version in 2025. We have published our roadmap on Steam for everyone to see. Times are subject to change, but we will update them regularly.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Above all, the content for the full version will be doubled. This means not only more dungeons, but also additional features that will be unlocked. Some of the planned things are:

  • New systems: An arena that allows you to face monsters you have encountered in the Underground again and receive special rewards.

  • New bosses: Bosses with unique abilities and strategies, adding new challenges to your adventures. Each one also unlocks a new unique piece of equipment (armor or weapon) based on the boss.

  • New monsters: A variety of new monsters based on German and European folklore.

  • New quests: Additional quests that offer variety and let you continue to experience the story of Lindwyrm.

  • Modified skills: Modify your skills with the Rune Board or unlock new ones with new unique weapons.

  • New dungeons: More dungeons filled with traps, monsters and secret passages. There will also be new dungeon settings to match the bosses. Each setting has its own special mechanics and peculiarities.

  • Optimizations: We will work on performance and graphic enhancements to ensure a smoother and more visually appealing gaming experience.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version of Lindwyrm offers a fully enjoyable game loop, including cooperative play and half of the main bosses. However, players should expect some bugs and areas where visuals and gameplay will be improved over time. We're committed to continuous updates and enhancements based on player feedback.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We aim to keep Lindwyrm affordable and accessible to a broad audience. There might be a slight price increase upon full release, so we recommend interested players to purchase during Early Access and become active members of our community. Your support helps us shape the final game.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community involvement is a cornerstone of our development philosophy. We highly value open communication and collaboration with our players. We actively engage with our community on Discord, social media, and through live streams on Twitch. Player feedback, ideas, and criticism are crucial to our process, and we strive to maintain a close, respectful relationship with our players.”

“This hybrid dungeon-crawler has a little bit of everything, with action-roguelite hack ‘n’ slash gameplay, platforming, puzzle-solving, and even a bit of base-building”

About This Game

Explore countless underground dungeons and face a variety of creatures from European folklore. Help to rebuild Sigiswal using the upgrade system, which unlocks advantages and new areas in the village. Face your opponents with weapons of your choice, which allow different fighting styles and special attacks. A roguelite action RPG with lots of exploration, fast and tactical hack'n'slay battles and treacherous traps. And mountain devils - they're just everywhere!

The price of death

Embark on a dangerous journey where every defeat has its price. Do you hate losing? Then choose your path carefully, because death will take your hard-earned loot! And as if that wasn't enough, the rune curse increases with every fatal exit, which can cost your hero valuable bonuses.

One for all

Team up with friends and explore the underground in multiplayer mode for up to 4 players. Good friends share everything, so why not life points? One life bar for all comrades-in-arms, because real friends fight through thick and thin. Or do they? 

The choice is yours

Lindwyrm offers you a selection of weapons that enable different attacks. Choose how you want to fight. Will it be the sword or the bow today? Find your style and let your hero shine!

Deadly surprises

Evil lurks in the Underground... and with it deadly traps, barricades and puzzles that can thoroughly spoil a quick passage. Jump over dangerous ravines, find secret rooms and navigate through swinging axes. Just the normal everyday madness.

Your Sigiswal

Help the villagers rebuild Sigiswal. In the Underground you will find many materials that are urgently needed. The more the village recovers, the more quests, stores and other bonuses you can unlock. You choose what is rebuilt and when, giving Sigiswal your own touch.

The power of runes

Use the power of the ancient runes to improve your hero. You can unlock boosts on the rune board and activate effect runes that you find in the Underground. The additional effects offer you useful and powerful advantages in three categories, whose influence on the battle should not be underestimated. But be careful! If you die, the rune curse will sweep across the board and take away your effects. In addition, each death blocks an effect slot, meaning you can activate fewer effects. 

Nerves of steel or nervous wreck?

Do you want to venture underground with caution or take full risk? No problem! Lindwyrm offers three difficulty levels, allowing you to decide how tough the challenge should be. The higher the level, the more damage you can take, but you also get more loot. At the hardcore level, one wrong step can be your last, and you must start again with a new hero.

Story

Once upon a time, evil sorcerers tormented people day in and day out and made their lives more difficult. The terror was so great that people began to fight back and sent out heroes to drive the sorcerers underground.

Water under the bridge, all peaceful. At least that's how the young people in Sigiswal see it, while the elders still tell the old stories, filled with fear. But then the earth shakes and creepy monsters emerge from every crevice. When you reach the shores of the village, the whole place is in ruins. Countless people are missing and the monsters underground will not rest. 

Will you help the villagers and venture into the depths? And where are all the heroes when you need them? 

Lindwyrm’s use of German and European creatures and hero tales offer a change from the usual fantasy worlds and will retell the well-known and the forgotten stories.
