Catacomb Kids is a challenging roguelike platformer developed and published by FourbitFriday. The game features pixel art graphics and takes place in a series of randomly generated catacomb levels. As a brave kid venturing into the catacombs, the player must explore each level, collect weapons, loot, and magical spells, avoid traps, and battle dangerous monsters and bosses. The overall goal is to descend through the procedurally generated depths and ultimately defeat Janus, an evil entity waiting at the bottom.
Core gameplay involves jumping across platforms, climbing ladders, pushing blocks, flipping switches, and more while managing health, hunger, and equipment load. Combat with the myriad monsters inhabiting the catacombs is dangerous and skill-based, requiring proper timing and aim when using swords, bombs, wands, and spells. Traps like spike pits and arrows add to the challenge. There is a heavy emphasis on skillful gameplay and managing various statistics. Death results in starting the entire process over from the beginning.
Key features include procedural generation for replayability, local multiplayer capabilities, collectible lore items with world storytelling, and leaderboards to compete for the deepest runs. With challenging gameplay and unlockable characters, Catacomb Kids offers an engaging take on the roguelike genre focused on platforming and exploration.
