About Idols Of Ash
Idols of Ash is a horror climbing game about descending into an ancient structure while something hunts you. A grappling hook gives you a way to control the descent, turning the route below into a series of decisions about movement and commitment. The goal is downward progress, not collecting creatures or clearing a set of combat rooms. The pressure comes from needing to keep moving without losing control of where the next movement will take you.
