Ferulorum

Ferulorum is a game about a humble merchant seeking the Clatiulus crystal, an ancient family heirloom, in the land of Novilux. Five generations ago, tragedy struck the king and a curse seemed to fall on the land. Now an heir to the throne is trying to rebuild what was lost, and has offered great rewards to anyone who recovers the crystal. You have enough gold to establish a small encampment near its last known location, but you are neither a soldier, warrior nor thief. Instead, you recruit mercenaries and share the profits with them as you race other seekers to the crystal.

Recruit a team

You can hire mercenaries from 11 classes, each with different abilities and stats. Put together small teams and send them to explore dungeons, choosing heroes suited to the challenges they will face.

Explore the dungeons

There are five dungeons, each with five levels. Their different challenges affect which kinds of heroes are appropriate to send. Build up your encampment to support the quest, and reach the Clatiulus before the others seeking to reclaim it.

Art and sound

Ferulorum uses 2D pixel graphics inspired by retro computer games, with over 100 hand-drawn portraits for heroes and 60 types of enemies. Its music and ambient sounds draw inspiration from dungeon synth and its subgenres.
