A Classic First-Person Grid-Based CRPG — Rebuilt with Modern Depth

The Darkness Below is a large-scale, single-player dungeon crawler inspired by the golden era of 90s RPGs — Dungeon Master, Eye of the Beholder, Might & Magic III–V, Lands of Lore — rebuilt with deeper character systems and modern stability.

Explore a handcrafted fantasy world through first-person grid movement and fast turn-based combat.
Train skills by using them. Advance through expertise tiers. Shape your party through meaningful progression and choice.

This is a true old-school CRPG — without the old technical limits.
