You’re an archaeologist. Alone, at the edge of a giant hole in the earth. Armed with nothing but your trusty pickaxe, you begin your descent into the unknown.
Into the Abyss is a digging-focused platformer where exploration goes straight down. Your mission: reach the bottom, uncover the truth behind the abyss, and do it as fast as you can, after all you can get a worth treasure. But be careful, watch out for those treacherous traps set by who knows anyway.
Dig Your Own Path: Break through dirt, stone, and ancient ruins with your pickaxe. You decide where to go—no set paths, no shortcuts.
Find Hidden Treasures: Scattered along the descent are lost treasure chests filled with rare materials, secrets, and boosts. Getting them isn’t easy—but it’s worth it.
