Asymmetric multiplayer · In development · Release date [TBA]

Two sides, one cave

Nobody enters the cave equal.

Pluckmin is asymmetric by design. The two sides do not just play different characters. They play different games, with different goals, tools, and knowledge of the cave.

Team of explorers

The Pluckmin

Be the Pluckmin, collect treasure, and try your best to survive the whole time.

Lone hunter

The Killer

You are the dark. Stalk the tunnels, snuff out the lanterns, and pick off stragglers before the crew reaches the surface.

Goal

Explorers: Haul the treasure to the surface and get the whole crew out alive.

Killer: Stop the haul. Take down the crew before they reach the exit.

Role

Explorers: Run around finding treasure and try your best to survive.

Killer: Play one powerful creature on your own, with direct control.

Knowledge

Explorers: They know nothing, its is a brand new place for them. Where are we?

Killer: You know the cave and hear the crew's noise, but you still have to find them.

Playstyle

Explorers: Teamwork and strategy. Split the crew, manage the load, protect the light.

Killer: Stealth and pursuit. Ambush stragglers, cut the lights, and chase.
