Ossuary is a darkly funny satire about a Discordian underworld where no one can improve themselves. Navigate dialogue-based puzzles and use sins as inventory items to help those who have fallen to corrupt virtue. Explore an intricate, black-and-white space with layered, interconnected challenges. Be unsettled by the cabbages disguised as people. Kick around the spiders who have hatched from skulls. Learn of the Curse of Grayface and the nature of disorder. Can you escape the place of bones?

Press reviews: “Bizarrely funny and often downright confusing, the game aspires to confuse the player’s interpretation of sensible reality, leaving their interpretation of the game world and its inhabitants pliant.” Indie Game Magazine “Proving once again that the adventure genre will never die, this game shows just how much life there is in the genre, even amidst the crumbling bones of the dead.” 4/5 – Adventure Gamers “If you’ve ever stared at a list of upcoming releases and wished for something extraordinary to shake things up, pay attention to Ossuary.” Rock, Paper, Shotgun 

Notes: Extensive, considered discussions of death, dying, and the afterlife. Verbal descriptions of funereal practices. Ubiquitous, stylized depictions of skulls and bones. Exploration of the differences between lawbreaking and immorality.
