About This Game

Ancient Shadows Awakening is a dark first-person RPG set in a vast, handcrafted underground world. Move freely through fully 3D environments, explore forgotten corridors, face deadly traps, solve puzzles, and confront creatures lurking in the darkness.

Every step may lead to a discovery… or to your final mistake.

Uncover hidden passages and piece together the story of a place that was meant to remain forgotten. Fight in real time, wield different weapons, shields, throwable items, and magic, and adapt your equipment to whatever awaits deeper below.

Darkness is not your only enemy. Keep an eye on your food and water supplies, refill the oil in your lamp, tend to your wounds, and carefully decide when to press on and when to turn back. Water may be scarce, supplies will not last forever, and a safe place to save your progress may not be around every corner.

What awaits you:

  • Free movement through a fully 3D, handcrafted underground world

  • Real-time combat with different weapons, shields, throwable items, and magic

  • Puzzles, traps, hidden passages, and interactive environments

  • Survival elements – hunger, thirst, poison, and limited lamp oil

  • Item crafting, equipment management, and character progression

  • A bestiary containing information about discovered enemies

  • A map that gradually reveals itself as you explore and allows you to leave your own notes

  • Multiple difficulty levels that affect available resources, enemies, and other survival elements

How deep will you dare to descend before the shadows consume you?
