Beneath the town of Kainford lies a maze of traps and furies known as the Catacombs. Somewhere deep inside, a relic has become active, poisoning the earth and water of Kainford. Grandfather leads a troop of CORE soldiers into the Catacombs in an attempt to destroy the relic, but they haven't been heard from in a week, and people are still dying above ground. There is only one choice: seek the relic!





Well, hope you enjoy it...! Also, Java's a bit iffy on some machines, so let me know if there's problems. This is version 1.10 and most everything should be fixed up though. Still waiting for the first win!

I played this a little while.  It's simpler than most roguelikes but it is entertaining.

I have no clue how dodge/armor/damage work or if certain items even do anything at all/how to use them.  I guess this is intentional, but I don't even see how to figure it out since, for example, I'll end up levelling up before I get enough data on my damage dealt.

The keys for actions are pretty annoying.  If you're playing with your right hand on the number pad, going between E, U, and P with your left hand sucks.  I gave up on using E when I noticed U does the same and more.  The same issue happens with selecting items in the menu, though.  I think I'd rather have a cursor using the numpad to nagivate.

I ran into two things that seem like bugs.  I started the game once and was immediately attacked by an adjacent enemy, effectively starting the game with less health at random.  Another time I died with the display at the bottom saying I had 45/99 health and the combat log at the top saying I took 27 damage (especially frustrating since I had plenty of potions and I have no idea if it's a bug or something else).
