UnderMire Launches Its Cooperative Roguelite Horror Adventure With Magical Weapons and a Very Unhelpful Ghost Cat

Table Knight Games has scheduled UnderMire for PC via Steam on November 13. The cooperative roguelite follows four teenagers trapped beneath an English manor after a school trip takes a supernatural turn.

Magical tools and a changing bunker

One to four players descend through an ever-changing underground bunker, using proximity voice chat to coordinate their exploration. Instead of conventional firearms, they wield magical tools that can be upgraded and modified. A crafting system called SMUSH combines everyday objects and food into improvised equipment, including bombs and potions.

Electricity, water, lighting and obstacles offer ways to interact with the environment. Fear can trigger hallucinations and additional dangers, so teams must manage their characters’ psychological condition as well as physical survival.

Between expeditions, players return to the Den to improve equipment and investigate the manor’s history. Their guide is McClane, an ancient spirit cat with demands of his own. Changing environments and persistent upgrades offer reasons to return, although the finished game’s balance will determine how much variety they provide. See more PC news and the Release Radar.
