Core Rules-Lite Mechanics
Fast-Paced Gameplay: Simple rules and quick combat keep the focus on the action and horror.
Classes: Customize your character with unique archetypes defined by their SOUL, BODY, and MIND. Play a Fanatic obsessed with evolution, a Spartan blinded by loyalty to their camp, or a Nomad versed in survival and adaptation.
Fleshworks: Harness grotesque powers through Fleshworks, or simply become a horder of knowledge.
Brutalist Levels: Navigate the crumbling levels built by CELARCs, a never-ending construction where each level could span the size of planets.
Expanded Rules
Crafting and Harvesting: Scavenge, create, and adapt with materials ripped from the world or the Tethered themselves.
Medical and Healing: Immursive healing and medical system, for the most hardcore players.
Camp Management: Build and maintain a safe haven, balancing hard choices that can mean life or death for your group.
Expanded Lore: Uncover fragments of the world’s grim history or create your own horrors using the tools within.
Jump straight into a game or use the expanded rules with support for creating your own enemies, stories, and survival mechanics. Whether you’re exploring the levels or managing resources to outlast the hunger and starvation, every moment will test your resolve.
Endure. Suffer. Resist.
