Description
Those Who Dwell is a first-person claustrophobic folk horror game set in a dark, twisted labyrinth beneath the earth about isolation, light, and long forgotten things.
You are alone in a excavation site deep beneath the earth. The team that once worked here is gone — and something older has been discovered and awakened. Navigate a network of twisting tunnels, ancient chambers, and abandoned dig sites as you piece together the fate of the excavators… and what they disturbed.
Stay in the light. Oil is scarce. Light fades. Some things only move when it’s dark.
Restore lost shrines to push back the gloom and earn the favor of the Hidden Folk, if they still watch.
Environmental Storytelling. Discover cave paintings, tools, and old maps that tell the story of those who came before and those who were here long before them.
Gameplay Highlights:
Atmospheric slow-burn horror with no combat
Light-based resource survival: manage oil, candles, and visibility
Shrine interaction system: restore, ignore, or desecrate — your choices change the outcome
Hidden endings and secrets for those who explore thoroughly
10 handcrafted levels, each with evolving environmental storytelling
Face the darkness. Endure the isolation. And uncover the truth before you disappear too.
