The Crucible is a top down adventure game set in a dark fantasy world, incorporating melee combat and a revolving 'mystery potion' mechanic that imbues the player with special abilities... at a price. You will navigate dungeons, battle enemies, and encounter traps while also sampling potions that will help or hinder you on your journey. The stakes rise as the story unfolds, driving you closer to the answers you seek, but will the truth set you free?

Features:

  • Fight enemies with an assortment of melee weapons
  • Scavenge creature parts to brew helpful potions
  • Find potions that improve or impede your chances of survival
  • Fight a powerful boss with strange powers

The visuals and animations are really great! I couldn't quite figure out to open chests and such and the music/sound would cut out but its game jam and there's never enough time! No matter, good job overall!
