Chasm

Get to Know About Chasm

I first stumbled into the old mining town of Eldraine with nothing more than a tattered map and a hunch that something was off. The air feels thick, like every tunnel breathes its own secrets. You’re thrown right into this sprawling underworld, and there’s no holding your hand—just walls that shift every time you die and pockets of handcrafted danger that make every new corridor feel fresh. Every swing of your blade and every cautious jump across crumbling ledges reminds you that you’re out of your depth, but there’s a real thrill in surviving that first night.

Combat is quick and responsive, which keeps the tension humming whenever enemies lurk just around a bend. You’ll pick up new abilities that let you dash through spikes or crack open hidden alcoves, and before long you’re chaining moves together to clear rooms in a satisfying flurry. The upgrades don’t come from grinding endlessly, but rather from exploring, backtracking once you’ve got that little extra reach or strength, and unearthing shortcuts that shave precious seconds off your run. Death isn’t punishment so much as an invitation to learn the landscape a bit better.

Visually, it pulls off that sweet spot where pixel art feels alive: flickering torches cast shadows that dance across moss-covered walls, and every monster design—whether it’s a skeletal sentinel or a grotesque crawler—carries its own distinct spine-chilling personality. The sound design is subtle but effective. You hear distant drips of water echoing through the caverns and the metallic clink of armor as a nearby foe steps into view. Together, these bits and pieces craft a world that’s both immersive and just unpredictable enough to keep you peering around every corner.

At its heart, it’s an adventure that humbles you while still promising a sense of achievement each time you conquer a new gauntlet. There’s no checklist forcing you to tick off every collectible; instead, there’s an organic pull to see what lies deeper, to chase that spark of curiosity that got you on this journey in the first place. By the time you uncover the final mysteries hidden in those ever-shifting halls, you’re left with a genuine fondness for every triumphant leap and every brutal failure that shaped the ride.
