Automated dungeon crawler game Algolemeth heads to PC Steam in 2025 with Yuzo Koshiro as the composer

Medium-Rare Games plans to unveil the indie game, Algolemeth, for PC through Steam in 2025. Unlike traditional role-playing games, players won’t engage directly with characters; instead, they’ll provide a series of commands to the AI of their party Golems. These Golems will autonomously explore dungeons and battle enemies according to these instructions.

For a while now, Algolemeth has been under development and made its debut at indie gaming events, starting from January 2023. Initially planned for launch in 2024, the release date was subsequently pushed back to 2025 by the studio.

In recent times, Medium-Rare Games revealed a significant development: they’ve recruited Yuzo Koshiro, whose music career took off at Nihon Falcom with the 1986 PC release of Xanadu Scenario II: The Resurrection of Dragon, to compose the game’s music. The entire soundtrack will be created using FM synthesis and will evoke the melodies characteristic of scores from the Sega Genesis era.

Below, you’ll come across the fresh official trailer, accompanied by screenshots and a data sheet for Algolemeth. This thrilling game will support both Japanese and English languages.

Create AI and Conquer the Dungeon.

In Algolemeth, you embark on a role-playing game adventure that involves sending customized golems, each armed with their own programs, to delve into a labyrinth for completely autonomous exploration.

Challenge the Dungeon through Trial and Error!

In this game, players assume the role of alchemists who craft self-governing golems. These golems band together to carry out preprogrammed dungeon expeditions. Once deployed within the dungeon, your only task is to observe. By studying enemy behavior, experimenting with different strategies, and refining your approach through trial and error, you strive to conquer the dungeon!

Bring Back Parts and Strengthen Your Golems!

In the dungeon, you’ll find a variety of upgrades. Some of these boost the golem’s physical capabilities, while others enable novel behavior patterns. Use the components you gather to design and craft your very own distinctive golems!

Not Just Battle, But Fully Automated Exploration!

Users have the ability to direct their team’s actions within the dungeon by employing an Artificial Intelligence system designed for exploration. This AI makes decisions such as who should open the treasure chest, if it’s safe to proceed based on current health or whether to retreat, given the situation. The behavior of your party is influenced by the AI you have developed.

Legendary composer Yuzo Koshiro sets the tone with an all-new soundtrack!

With numerous timeless tunes under his belt, Koshiro is responsible for our background music. Each tune is meticulously crafted using authentic FM synthesis in the style of the Genesis, ensuring an exhilarating experience as you embark on your quest through the dungeons!
