Come inhabit a living, breathing world and chisel through layers of thousand-year-old civilizations. Decide: is it a dying earth, or is it on the verge of rebirth? <img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/0382caea9d09c9569fbebf070aeeb370.avif?t=1762181092" width=600 height=128 />Do anything and everything. Caves of Qud is a deeply simulated, biologically diverse, richly cultured world.DEEP PHYSICAL SIMULATION — Don’t like the wall blocking your way? Dig through it with a pickaxe, or eat through it with your corrosive gas mutation, or melt it to lava. Yes, every wall has a melting point.FULLY SIMULATED CREATURES — Every monster and NPC is as fully simulated as the player. That means they have levels, skills, equipment, faction allegiances, and body parts. So if you have a mutation that lets you, say, psionically dominate a spider, you can traipse through the world as a spider, laying webs and eating things.DYNAMIC FACTION SYSTEM — Pursue allegiances with over 70 factions: apes, crabs, trees, robots, and highly entropic beings, just to name a few.RICHLY DETAILED SCIENCE FANTASY SETTING — Over fifteen years of worldbuilding have led to a rich, weird, labyrinthine, one-of-a-kind storyworld, layered on top of the simulation, all for you to explore. Live and drink, friend.TACTICAL GAMEPLAY — Turn-based, sandbox exploration and combat offers as many solutions as you and your mutations, implants, artifacts, and skills are creative enough to invent.RPG ELEMENTS — Quests, NPCs, villages, historic sites; some dynamic and some handwritten, interwoven to produce a transportative RPG experience.ATMOSPHERIC ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK — Over two hours of otherworldly music to delve to.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/4cc881160470416e088eeccb78eb8c48.avif?t=1762181092" width=600 height=128 /><video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/b460309088da853039668f1d381af0dc.poster.avif?t=1762181092" width=616 height=236 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/b460309088da853039668f1d381af0dc.webm?t=1762181092" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/b460309088da853039668f1d381af0dc.mp4?t=1762181092" type="video/mp4"></video>Caves of Qud has one of the most expressive character creators of all time.Play the role of a mutant indigenous to the salt-spangled dunes and jungles of Qud, or play a true kin descendant from one of the few remaining eco-domes — the toxic arboreta of Ekuemekiyye, the ice-sheathed arcology of Ibul, or the crustal mortars of Yawningmoon.Build your character out of:<ul class="bb_ul"><li>Over 70 mutations — outfit yourself with wings, two heads, four arms, flaming hands, teleportation, the power to clone yourself…</li><li>Dozens of cybernetic implants (and more to find as treasure) — night vision, translucent skin, carbide fists, spring-loaded ankle tendons…</li><li>24 castes and kits from across the social order of Qud and beyond Moghra’yi, the Great Salt Desert</li><li>Too overwhelmed to build a character from scratch? Choose one of 9 preset characters and start your adventure right away. Then return to character creation when you are ready.</li></ul><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/45d375f5cebbba414e73131f1ee9b25c.avif?t=1762181092" width=600 height=128 /><video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/5915a88919f5a7775039473c49b40c10.poster.avif?t=1762181092" width=616 height=234 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/5915a88919f5a7775039473c49b40c10.webm?t=1762181092" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/5915a88919f5a7775039473c49b40c10.mp4?t=1762181092" type="video/mp4"></video>Play one of four modes:CLASSIC — Like other traditional roguelikes, this mode has permadeath, meaning you lose your character when you die. Extremely challenging even for experts.ROLEPLAY — Play it like an RPG. Save your progress at checkpoints located in settlements.WANDER — Focus on exploration. Most creatures will not attack you, you don’t gain experience by killing, but you DO gain experience by discovering new locations and treating with legendary creatures.DAILY — One chance with a fixed character and world seed. How long will you survive?<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/333640/extras/05d3e459d57571297a3b3159b4fe9325.avif?t=1762181092" width=600 height=128 />After 9 years of continuous development and frequent updates, Caves of Qud has finally reached its 1.0 release!

It began as the science fantasy roguelike dream of co-creators Jason Grinblat and Brian Bucklew, who released the first beta in 2010. Since then, it's accrued a few more contributors who have enriched the project by helping to add visual effects, sound effects, an original soundtrack, a new UI, new game systems, new lore, and half a world of content. Caves of Qud has grown into a wild garden of emergent narrative, where a handwritten story weaves a path through rich physical, social, and historical simulations. The result is a hybrid handcrafted and procedurally-generated world that's alive in a way few games are.
