Down the Oubliette is a dungeon crawler for people who like tower defense games. Take on the ghost infestation below an abandoned country house.

Features #

  • Play through 4 randomised levels to get rid of all the ghosts.
  • Use 4 different towers: beacon, coil, fan, and torch.
  • Use the crank to activate fan towers or configure the controls to play with one hand.
  • Replay a floor as often as you need to. There’s no permadeath.
  • Use ghost energy to build and upgrade towers but manage your resources well or you’ll get stuck.

Options #

  • Unlit spirits – show a question mark for each spirit that is hidden in the dark or hide them completely.
  • Fans – use the crank to activate the fans or activate them automatically
  • Turn – hold the B button to turn around or toggle turning with the B button
  • Reset notebook – removes all unlocked content from the notebook. Ideal if you have a second player who wants to start fresh.

Note: automating fans and toggling to turn should enable you to play with one hand.

Links #

  • Down the Oubliette is on sale on Catalog until March 14.
  • The intro music is available on soundcloud.
  • The levels were generated with clingo.
