In Sol Cesto, your goal is to descend through the levels of a randomly generated underground world, diving ever deeper in search of the sun, lost for countless years. On the combat grid, you choose one of four rows to move into—then land randomly on one of the four tiles in that row. Will it be a monster that harms you? A chest full of gold? A deadly poison trap? Anything can happen…
Early Access Content:
- 3 biomes to explore, each hiding monsters and traps with unique behaviors (5 biomes planned for the full release)
- 4 characters with distinct powers, stats, and abilities (8 characters planned for the full release)
- Stone teeth that change the game’s rules and probabilities to tip the scales in your favor
- Metal teeth that trigger devastating curses and combos
- A wide range of items to eliminate enemies or escape dangerous situations
- The strange underground inhabitants, some of whom may share their secrets with you
- And many more surprises…
Throughout Early Access, expect frequent updates with more characters, biomes, teeth, items, monsters, and features.
The full roadmap is available on the Steam page.
Sol Cesto is available now at a base price of $11.99, with a 30% launch discount for the first two weeks. A press kit is available.
