What is Caves of Qud?

It is a science fantasy roguelike where you could be a mutant with multiple arms and various other mutations or a pure human with interesting implants in a world where sentient plants trade in bazaars and ancient machines still hum with mysterious purposes.

Finding that gem cutter figurine led to one of my most unusual relationships. A curious interaction with a small statue became a genuine romance.

This bizarre fungal infection sprouts tiny mouths across your skin, whispering secrets about unexplored places. That's Qud for you - turning even infections into adventures.

There's so much more to discover. After hundreds of hours, I'm still finding new stories to tell.

Getting Started

Discovering things yourself is half the fun in Qud, but I've gathered some guides and builds for when you need them. Start with the Introduction guide for the basics - everything else is here to help, not to spoil your adventures.
