You have been exiled to The Mirk - an unforgiving swampland where every step can be your last. You must constantly make choices: what paths to take, which tree to shelter under, what beasts to engage or avoid, what items to bring into the darkness of dungeons, and what to leave behind.
Mirklurk: Every Step Matters
Steam..:: A Turn-Based Survival RPG ::..
Each turn, you must make choices - Spend your Actions Points well.
The swamp might overwhelm you, or harden your survival instincts.

While nature itself will be a challenge, the foes you encounter will be just as formidable.
The combat will be unique and puzzle-like. Weapons will have different attack patterns and effects.

Nights are cold and dangerous. A well-planned camp and enough firewood will increase your chances of survival.

The Mirk is a living place. You will create paths, set up camps, discover ancient ruins and mysteries, all while meeting unique characters and beings.

Lastly: This game is under development - details, screenshots and videos will added and/or changed.
Please note: This game is meant to be challenging. You are expected to lose many times, and it will take time to learn how to survive. Dungeons will not be amusement rides designed for the player, but dangerous trials that demand careful preparation. To sum it up: Warding off the darkness with your last dying torch won't be easy — but it should be memorable.
