A cozy, first-person explorer, full of dazzling sights, a charming story, cute creatures, and a living landscape that you Art Direct, as you bop about with a world-altering camera. Enjoy your virtual vacay!
Carceri is a living landscape; a chill, first-person narrative/exploration experience.
You'll visit gorgeous, interconnected zones while platforming, talking to cute NPCs, finding secrets, and taking pictures with a heavily upgradable camera, one that can distort the world beyond your wildest imagination!
You'll also follow a fun story, one about the Programs that run our world. They need your help, human, because in Carceri, you aren't a Character, you are YOU, the person at your PC, reading these words. This is their Reality, and you're just visiting.

Carceri is a 2-4 hour game made by a single human, a spiritual successor to ULTRAWORLD EXODUS. This is no Dark Souls, as anyone can complete the narrative portion, and there's plenty to experience afterwards (like an in-game philosophy podcast).
Works on Steamdeck, and, buying the game gives you the 41 song original soundtrack!

Carceri is quietly unlike anything you've played before. It's hard to explain (and sell), but it's absolutely worth the world's most precious resource: your time.
