The decision at the heart of it

Every safe chamber adds treasure and a new echo choice. Shape your own future risk, or leave before an echo takes your unbanked haul.

What you remember from one chamber changes the danger of the next.

Across three descents, read a two-outcome warning before deciding to return with your carried treasure or continue deeper. An outcome matching one of your own remembered echoes ends your descent and loses the treasure you have not banked.

Survive, and you choose which symbol from the warning joins your personal echo queue. That choice affects your risk in later chambers; other players keep their own echoes. Once per descent, spend three carried points to quiet one echo before opening the next chamber.

The danger is visible enough to reason about, but the next reveal remains uncertain. Watch the memory queue, consider the warning, and decide whether another chamber is worth your unbanked haul. Reach the sixth depth and your surviving treasure banks automatically.

How a game unfolds

  1. Compare the two-symbol warning with your own remembered echoes.
  2. Return to bank your treasure, continue, or spend your once-per-descent Quiet to erase one echo.
  3. After surviving, choose an echo from the warning; finish three descents with the most banked treasure.
