...the tale begins...

You arrive at a place that is alien to you.

It would be so easy for you to turn back. You know this. And you know that you should, for you have heard all the stories:

"Nothing good awaits those who go in that abyss."

"Pray that you don't find what you're seeking if you ignore the warnings, because the thing you seek is praying that you will, and the abyss ignores uncaringly."

"Just when you think you've seen all there is, there's always more, and it's always worse than what you've seen."

"Sometimes, the body returns from there. But nobody truly returns from the abyss."

And yet... the allure of it. It's always the same story with everyone else. Soon, it will be your story too. And you know this. You know you shouldn't go. You know your mind is being messed with before you even go in, and you know that it's not to your benefit to listen.

But you are weak of will.

You leap into the abyss...

But what's the premise beyond the story..?

Temptation of the Abyss is a horror Metroidvania focused on a sense of atmosphere and mystery, using minimalist graphics and evocative sound design in combination to allow your mind to fill in the blanks on what's going on.

Dive further into the abyss to reach a new area... but is it really new?

It is recommended that you play the game without knowing what awaits you on your first playthrough.

After that, it is recommended you share hints and read hints in the comments below to piece together the secrets. It is unlikely you will be able to solve all of the game's mysteries on your own... neither are you expected to.
