Description
Down the Oubliette is a dungeon crawler for people who like tower defense games. Take on the ghost infestation below an abandoned country house. Features Play through 4 randomized levels to get rid of all the ghosts. Use 4 different towers: beacon, coil, fan, and torch. Configure the game to play with one hand. Replay a floor as often as you need to. There’s no permadeath. Use ghost energy to build and upgrade towers but manage your resources well to not get stuck. Options Show new notes with hints immediately or add them to the notebook to check later. Mark spirits hidden in the dark with a question mark for fewer surprises. Use the crank to activate fan towers or activate them automatically. Hold the B button to turn around or toggle turning with the B button. Reset progress and remove unlocked content from the notebook to allow a second player to start fresh.
