Lindwyrm

Lindwyrm is a roguelite action RPG about exploring underground dungeons, fighting creatures from European folklore and helping rebuild the village of Sigiswal. You choose weapons and fighting styles, use special attacks, and navigate traps and puzzles as you descend into the Underground.

Story

Long ago, evil sorcerers tormented people until they sent heroes to drive them underground. In Sigiswal, the young people think those days are over, while the elders still tell the old stories with fear. Then the earth shakes, monsters emerge from its crevices, and you find the village in ruins when you arrive. Many people are missing, and the monsters below remain a threat.

The game draws on German and European creatures and hero tales, retelling familiar and forgotten stories.

Explore the Underground

Dungeons contain creatures, materials, deadly traps, barricades and puzzles. Jump over ravines, search for secret rooms and make your way past hazards such as swinging axes. Mountain devils are among the creatures you encounter.

You can choose between weapons such as swords and bows, each offering different attacks and special moves. Combat combines fast action with tactical choices.

Death and runes

Defeat costs you the loot you have gathered, and each death increases the rune curse. Runes let you improve your hero: unlock boosts on the rune board and activate effect runes found in the Underground. These effects offer advantages across three categories, but death can sweep them from the board and block an effect slot, reducing how many you can activate.

Rebuild Sigiswal

You find materials in the Underground to help the villagers restore Sigiswal. The village upgrade system unlocks advantages and new areas, as well as quests, stores and other bonuses. You decide what to rebuild and when.

Multiplayer and difficulty

Up to four players can explore the Underground together. The party shares a single life bar, so all players’ life points are pooled.

Three difficulty levels let you choose how challenging the descent is. Higher levels let you take more damage but provide more loot. On hardcore difficulty, one mistake can end a run, and you must start again with a new hero.
