CAULDRON DROP

PICO-8

They call it the cauldron. Deep beneath this land.

24 ROOMS. 3 ACTS. ONE WAY DOWN.

THE DESCENT

The surface is quiet. Grass moves in the wind. The sky feels endless. Your pack hums softly. A prototype. Built to push limits. Dash further. Jump higher.

They call it the cauldron. Deep beneath this land. No one knows who built it. Only that something below is still active. Warm air rises from below.

You tighten the straps. If the answers are down there, you will reach them.
