About Caput Mortum
Caput Mortum is a short, first-person horror game inspired by retro 3D dungeon crawlers and survival horror. You explore a tower of forgotten nightmares, face horrors from beyond death and uncover forbidden knowledge.
Explore the tower
Every step through the tower could be your last. Doors conceal new terrors, while your surroundings hold clues to eldritch secrets. You solve puzzles and piece together what happened inside the tower.
Face its inhabitants
Varied monsters roam the tower’s abandoned halls and attack when they find you. You can sneak past them, fight back or take another approach. Keep track of your health: healing items are limited.
Control your right hand
The controls draw on old-school dungeon crawlers and let you control your right hand separately to interact with objects and attack creatures. Several control schemes are available:
- Controller (Default): The recommended option, designed to make you feel vulnerable while remaining fair.
- Controller (King's Field): Move your character and control the camera in a style reminiscent of the King's Field games.
- Controller (Modern): Use a more familiar controller scheme.
- Keyboard Only: Control the camera and your hand with the arrow keys.
- Keyboard & Mouse: Control the camera and your hand with the mouse.
