Games Like Abyssgate

The Abyssal Gate is open. Who's going in?

For generations the kingdom of Eunomia lived under the wings of its guardian dragon. When the dragon sickened and a black miasma began to spread from its lair, the crown sent an expedition to end the threat. The expedition succeeded. The miasma did not stop. Where the dragon had lain, the Abyssal Gate now stands open, and what comes through it does not stop at the mountains. The crown is hiring anyone willing to go down.

A Wizardry-style dungeon crawler, made the old way.

First-person and grid-based. You move one square at a time and turn ninety degrees. Combat is turn-based. You give orders to all six, then the round plays out. No action elements and no quest markers. If someone dies you carry them back to the Temple and pay.

Build your own party of six.

What you'll run into down there.

Seven descents into the Abyss.

It starts in the Proving Grounds under the castle, goes on to the Flooded Mine where the miners went quiet, and then deeper than the maps go. Each audience with the king opens the next way down. The deeper you go, the closer you get to the Gate itself, and to a question nobody in Eunomia wants to ask. What did the expedition actually do?

The controls stay out of your way.

Abyssgate is made by one person, in the open. Wishlist it to follow along.
