MALEBOLGE
First person horror · Windows and Linux · Out by the end of October 2026
You are the only thing down there that can die
The game
The complete descent through Dante’s Inferno, from the dark wood to the frozen lake at the bottom. Every place in it is a place in the poem, and nothing has been invented to join them up.
You are Dante, alive in the body, carrying an oil lamp, because you have mortal eyes and the dead have no use for light. Oil runs out. Nothing down here waits for you to be ready.
