In Search of Immortality

About

In Search of Immortality is a short RPG where you lead a team into a sealed underground tomb to uncover secrets of an alchemist’s experiments. The game focuses on exploring a maze-like dungeon filled with traps and puzzles while managing a small party’s abilities. Combat uses a simplified turn-based system with resource management basically. The story is lean but atmospheric, centered on a single mystery with a few unexpected reveals. Developed in two weeks for a game jam, the title has an intentionally rough but charming aesthetic. Community feedback often praises the eerie setting and concise design. With an average playtime of two to three hours, it’s a quick dive into a dark fantasy scenario. Players note the twist ending adds value to the brief runtime despite minimal character depth.
