Bones Beneath Instruction Manual
Explore the Egyptian underworld in this precision platformer! Jump, whip, and dash your way through a challenging, interconnected world that weaves linear gauntlets with open-ended exploration.
- Conquer over 200 rooms spread across tombs and otherworldly biomes, with each zone presenting unique challenges.
- Traverse the underworld in style with ancient powers which grant hover, wall jump, and dash abilities.
- Worried about death? Mystical ankh statues will quickly resurrect you so you can retry challenges right away.
- Battle terrifying gods and befriend charming creatures who call the underworld their home.
Obtain three abilities that change how you traverse the world and unlock new zones organically. All granted by powerful Egyptian gods!
- Amon's Second Wind - A gust of wind allows you to hover in the air for a short time. Handy for extending your jump and saving yourself from plummeting into spikes.
- Bastet's Feline Finesse - A slick wall jump that lets you rebound or slide down walls with ease.
- Horus's Holy Falcon - A fiery eight direction dash that protects you from harm while damaging enemies.
