Regeneration Engine

COMPELLING NARRATIVE

Set in an underground dungeon imminently after the end of the world, REGENERATION ENGINE explores the story of five characters unfortunate enough to fall down a well before they could be swept away by a powerful explosion. Unable to climb back out, unsure of if it’s worth the trouble, and unwilling to trust one another, they descend deeper into the ENGINE in hopes of finding out if there’s still a surface-world to return to.

 REWARDING GAMEPLAY

REGENERATION ENGINE is a turn-based RPG that’s split between overworld exploration, battles, and inventory management. To proceed deeper into the engine, you must navigate through overworld puzzles, collect materials to survive, and find the line to victory in each battle. When characters fall, they’re dead for good and the surviving characters can receive a single-use power-up based on their skills. 

TURN-BASED COMBAT

While combat is traditional turn-based fare, REGENERATION ENGINE is a puzzle stretched out across levels of encounters that require the player to experiment and augment their characters to survive each encounter. With so many combinations, players can expect to explore different character builds across runs.

ADAPTIVE STORY

As the party delves further and loses members to the monsters below, the characters’ relationships shift in real time as the only thing left to rely on is each other. Characters consume each other time and time again. Their interactions develop based on surviving characters and their desire to find what’s at the bottom of the ENGINE.
