Descend Into the Depths, Horripilant Now Available on Steam

Incremental Idle RPG Crosses with Puzzling Adventure

Kraków, Poland (February 20, 2026) – Black Lantern Collective is proud to announce that Horripilant is now available on Steam for $7.99 USD. Check out today’s launch trailer to see it in action.

Developed by Alexandre Declos - Pas Game Studio, Horripilant is a mashup of incremental RPG mechanics and classic point-and-click adventure design. Descend through floor after floor of increasingly vicious creatures, crawling back to the surface when you’ve hit your limit. Between runs, spend time at camp to harvest materials and invest in upgrades, while also exploring musty hallways with ever more challenging puzzles, leading to new characters and mysteries.

"After a year of development, I’m so excited to see this game go out into players’ hands. I’m really happy with the universe we’ve created and I hope that this unique experience will resonate with fellow incremental players as something a little unique and different!" –Alexandre Declos

Horripilant’s rich artwork and vivid descriptions unfasten the imagination, inviting you to peek into the recesses of every corner, calling back memories of classic PC games. The autobattler combat gives room to set your own pace, as you can either get drawn into clicking on weak points and picking boons or have those choices made for you, beefing up your stats even when you need to attend to something else. ​

See how deep you can go and discover new items to solve puzzles when you return. When the going gets tough, sacrifice yourself and be reborn with permanent upgrades to stack the odds in your favor.

Game Features

  • Incrementally gain and collect materials.
  • Combat horrific foes over 1000 floors in the dungeon.
  • Solve puzzles and explore the depths of your camp.
