Horripilant is an indie game unlike any other, blending idle grinding, puzzle solving, decryption, and automated combat. You wake in your battered armor, memory empty, with the demons' breath all about you. Sinister whispers from the deep chasms will guide you through the desperate journey of survival with no escape in sight.
Horripilant casts players in the role of an aging knight abandoned within an underworld teeming with horrors. Your ultimate mission is to conquer over 1,000 floors of a pitch-black dungeon, decipher mysterious mechanisms, and ultimately confront and destroy God.
Mouse: Used to perform all actions within the game.
Immediately click on any random sparkles that appear on the screen to instantly receive a massive resource boost, worth 500 times the value of a standard click!
This stat multiplies your passive production output exponentially and makes the most economic sense.
Always upgrade your Storage capacity before you go idling or exiting the game so passive resources don't overflow and go to waste.
Eat meat dropped by monsters to summon a Familiar, essentially doubling your survivability by splitting all incoming damage.
When monsters become too powerful, proactively choose to Rebirth. This allows you to farm Hemalith, which can be used to unlock powerful permanent skills for your next playthrough cycle.
Don’t just click blindly when spiderwebs are covering your screen. Instead, hold down your mouse button and shake your cursor back and forth vigorously to cut the web or just open your map for a few seconds to block your view. Then the spider-monster will go away all by himself.
Enable "Select Boon Automatically" and set an "Exit At" floor limit to safely and efficiently farm while AFK.
It's so addictive to feel completely helpless and then just blow up with triumph when you figure out the underlying rules of this dark labyrinth. A psychological test that blew my mind and kept me up all night when I was testing my limits of life and death in Horripilant.
