“A beautiful, devastatingly heartbreaking story. A haunting wasteland to explore. Smooth, challenging, and epic bullet-hell boss battles. LUCAH is a definite must-play from me!”

“Lucah looks like it leapt right off a chalkboard, with a distinct hand drawn style somewhere between wild scribblings and hallucinations. It mixes tense combat and exploration into a wild action-RPG.”
Kotaku

“The dark, claustrophobic world design, freaky monsters, cryptic narrative beats, high stakes combat and the superb audio design help create a tension you could cut with a knife”
AlphaBetaGamer

“Lucah: Born of a Dream is a breathtaking adventure filled with well-crafted characterization that doesn't pull any punches”
9/10 – RPGSite

About This Game




HACK, SLASH, ASCEND. Lucah: Born of a Dream is a harrowing struggle through our worst nightmares.

You have been MARKED, cursed to have your inner demons come to life as vicious Nightmares. After awakening a false god, you must atone. Traverse the hellish realm of dreams, endure the nightmare onslaught, and uncover the strength to accept yourself.



Master a deep combat system that blends ranged- and melee-action with rich customization. Explore an atmospheric world of repressed memories and unspeakable feelings. Lay waste to the Nightmares in a kinetic flurry of beautiful violence.

  • Striking colors and evocative linework elicit a surreal sense of ambiguity and tension.
  • Mix and match different Attack Mantras to create an endless variety of flashy combos.
  • Befriend Familiars and use their ranged magic to turn the course of battle.
  • Personalize your character with Virtues like slow-motion dodges, stunning parries, or vampiric attacks.
  • Use Rewinds to instantly retry a battle you were failing to achieve better results.
