Deeplanders

Deeplanders is a minimalist construction puzzle game about building underground cities and finding a suitable home for each Deeplander. Banished underground, the characters wander through the darkness and arrive as you build. Since they have different preferences, placing them in a city where they can live in harmony becomes an organization puzzle.

Build underground cities

You can build and decorate at your own pace, then choose whether to watch the Deeplanders go about their lives or descend further. Each depth can be solved in multiple ways, so you can replay it to create different cities. Descending adds new characters, environments and ways to build, with each depth forming another chapter in the Deeplanders’ story.

A living desktop world

A desktop companion mode keeps the underground world alive while you work. You can interact with it by exploring the depths.

What the game leaves out

Deeplanders has no mining, complex resource management, battles, fail states or leaderboards.
