Gamers recently enjoyed a nostalgic look back at classic RPGs thanks to a social media post from the game studio Rake in Grass. Their upcoming game, Underkeep, is a turn-based dungeon crawler that will remind players of titles like Dungeon Master and Eye of the Beholder. It features a similar interface to those older games, but with updated features and modern gameplay improvements.
Underkeep is a throwback to the classic dungeon crawler RPGs of the early ’90s
The Steam page for *Underkeep* describes it as a nostalgic homage to classic 90s role-playing games, combining turn-based combat with grid-based movement – bringing the best elements of old-school dungeon crawlers into a modern package. *Underkeep* gives players a lot of control, especially within its turn-based system. The developers encourage players to take their time, even saying you don’t need to rush moves just because your pizza arrives mid-battle! They’ve also included an option to skip any animations you find slow or repetitive, letting you play at your own pace.
Rake in Grass, a long-standing independent game studio in the Czech Republic, is known for creating retro-style games like Rampage Knights and Jets’n’Guns. Recently, a developer named boovie shared a clip of their new game, *Underkeep*. Players control the game by clicking on-screen arrows to move, and they can monitor their team’s health and status using four character portraits in the corner. The game also features a helpful mini-map, which makes it easier to explore and understand the game world – a nice upgrade from older games in the style.
The recent social media post about *Underkeep* struck a chord with many, sparking fond memories in the comments. Several people immediately added it to their Steam wishlist, which is a fantastic way to support the game and the independent developers behind it. While *Underkeep* doesn’t have a release date yet, wishlisting it on Steam will ensure you’re notified as soon as it’s available.
