Description

Supplied by the Steam store

ABOUT THE GAME

Beneath an abandoned cathedral lies an excavation site that should never have been disturbed.

While working underground, the ground suddenly gives way and sends you into the forgotten depths below. With the route back sealed, you must find another way out—but the tunnels are not as empty as they first appear.

DESCEND INTO THE FORGOTTEN DEPTHS

Explore buried passageways, collapsed chambers, ancient ruins, and the sacred halls hidden beneath the cathedral. Every step takes you deeper into a place shaped by faith, secrecy, and something that was deliberately sealed away.

UNCOVER THE TRUTH

Scattered notes reveal what happened beneath the cathedral and why the excavation was never meant to reach this far. Search your surroundings, collect keys, and solve environmental puzzles to open the path ahead.

SURVIVE WHAT WAS AWAKENED

You are not alone below. Stay alert, keep moving, and remain beyond the reach of the presence stalking the darkness. There is no victory in confronting it—only survival.

FEATURES

• Atmospheric first-person horror • Exploration through underground ruins and cathedral grounds • Environmental puzzles, keys, and collectible notes • Scripted encounters and pursuit sequences • A compact, story-focused horror experience • English and Turkish language support
