SOULFUL is a short, permadeath adventure game. You'll collect surprising spells, forage for useful trinkets, face off against gnarly beasts and, if you're lucky, discover what lies at the end of the river.

SOULFUL recaptures the sense of discovery and wonder of the early 1980s ASCII adventures by being completely text-less and number-less: you'll need to discover the rules of the world using your intuition, creativity and wits in order to thrive.

Like all good games, in SOULFUL you'll begin at the base of a waterfall.

Multiple biomes: get lost in the forest, dance in a clearing, lie down at the beach, hop over ancient ruins, inquire with the locals in the big city.

SOULFUL is custom-built for emergent gameplay: missing a fireball may be your invitation from a benign encounter to a dangerous forest fire.

Remember to stop for a moment, admire the scenery, and forage for useful tools off of the forest floor.

You'll need to spend your consumable items wisely. It may get you out of a tricky situation now, but amassing enough will unlock even more powerful, permanent effects.

Be surprised at a burst of colourful particles, updating in real-time as opposed to turn-based.

The UI is an intuitive experience, using animations, shapes and colours in place of traditional text-based information to capture a sense of exploration and wonder.

Enjoy the full-screen open world, where your cone of vision spreads all the way out to the edges of the screen.

Inspired by the original adventure games, non-player characters in SOULFUL only move when you do.

Even though enemies' movements are turn-based, the projectiles they fire keep moving and particles continue exploding: you decide the pace of the game!

Walk through this wide open door to a sprawling, mysterious, enchanting universe.
