Caves of Qud Free Download (v1.0)

Caves of Qud is a science fantasy roguelike steeped in retrofuturism, deep simulation, and swathes of sentient plants. Step into a living, breathing world where you’ll explore thousand-year-old civilizations and decide: Is this a dying earth, or is it on the verge of rebirth?

DEEP PHYSICAL SIMULATION – Encounter a world where every obstacle can be overcome creatively. Don’t like the wall in your way? Dig through it with a pickaxe, eat through it with a corrosive gas mutation, or melt it into lava. Every wall has a melting point!

FULLY SIMULATED CREATURES – Every monster and NPC is as fully simulated as the player. Creatures have levels, skills, equipment, faction allegiances, and body parts. Use your mutations to control and transform creatures, like psionically dominating a spider and roaming the world as one.

DYNAMIC FACTION SYSTEM – Align with over 70 factions, from apes and crabs to robots and highly entropic beings. Shape your destiny through your choices and allegiances.

RICHLY DETAILED SCIENCE FANTASY SETTING – Over fifteen years of worldbuilding have created a unique, weird story world layered on top of the simulation. Explore this labyrinthine universe filled with history and adventure.

TACTICAL GAMEPLAY – Turn-based sandbox exploration and combat offer endless solutions through your mutations, implants, artifacts, and skills. Creativity is key!

RPG ELEMENTS – Embark on quests, meet NPCs, and visit villages and historic sites. Both dynamic and handwritten elements intertwine to deliver an immersive RPG experience like no other.
