class="uk-width-medium-4-6"> <h2 id="description">Description</h2> <p>Caves of Qud is a science fantasy RPG and roguelike epic steeped in retrofuturism, deep simulation, and swathes of sentient plants. Come inhabit an exotic world and chisel through a layer cake of thousand-year-old civilizations. Play the role of a mutant from the salt-spangled jungles of Qud, or play as a true-kin descendant from one of the few remaining eco-domes: the toxic arboreta of Ekuemekiyye, the ice-sheathed arcology of Ibul, or the crustal mortars of Yawningmoon. Decide: is it a dying earth, or is it on the verge of rebirth?</p> <h2 id="history">History</h2> <p>Caves of Qud is a project of epic proportions that’s been in development for over fifteen years (since 2007). It began as the science fantasy roguelike dream of co-creators Jason Grinblat and Brian Bucklew, who released the first beta in 2010. In 2015, the game was launched on Steam in Early Access. Since then, it’s accrued a few more contributors who have enriched the project by helping to add visual effects, sounds, an original soundtrack, a new UI, new game systems, new lore, and half a world of content. The game has grown into a wild garden of emergent narrative, where a handwritten story weaves a path through rich physical, social, and historical simulations. The result is a hybrid handcrafted and procedurally-generated world that’s alive in a way few game worlds are.</p> <h2>Features</h2> <p>Assemble your character from over 70 mutations and defects, and 24 castes and kits — outfit yourself with wings, two heads, quills, four arms, flaming hands, or the power to clone yourself; it’s all the character diversity you could want.</p> <p>Explore procedurally-generated regions with some familiar locations — each world is nearly 1 million maps large.</p> <p>Dig through everything — don’t like the wall blocking your way? Dig through it with a pickaxe, or eat through it with your corrosive gas mutation, or melt it to lava. Yes, every wall has a melting point.</p> <p>Hack the limbs off monsters — every monster and NPC is as fully simulated as the player. That means they have levels, skills, equipment, faction allegiances, and body parts. So if you have a mutation that lets you, say, psionically dominate a spider, you can traipse through the world as a spider, laying webs and eating things.</p> <p>Pursue allegiances with over 70 factions — apes, crabs, robots, and highly entropic beings, just to name a few.</p> <p>Follow the plot to Barathrum the Old, a sentient cave bear who leads a sect of tinkers intent on restoring technological splendor to Qud.</p> <p>Learn the lore — there’s a story in every nook, from legendary items with fabled pasts to in-game history books written by plant historians. A novel’s worth of handwritten lore is knit into a procedurally-generated history that’s unique each game.</p> <p>Die — Caves of Qud is brutally difficult and deaths are permanent. Don’t worry, though — you can always roll a new character.</p> </div> </div> <h2>Images</h2> <p><a href="https://freeholdgames.com/Press/caves_of_qud/images/worldmap-big.png"><img fetchpriority="high"

We make games built on two design pillars: 1) Bizarre, baroque, original settings. We share an eclectic love for the natural and humanistic worlds and it compels us to sculpt immersive settings out of their varied clays. 2) Generativity. Emergence is fascinating to us; we love to be surprised by what we make.
