How it plays

Build down. Look after the people inside.

Everything starts at the entrance. Rooms have to touch a room you already have, and residents have to be put to work or they will not keep the place running.

Nine kinds of room

Generators, kitchens and water plants keep supplies up. Living quarters take in new people. Workshops earn caps. Storage, medbay, defense and recreation keep the place standing.

Residents with a job

Each person has Strength, Agility and Perception. Drag them into a room. The right stat makes a cycle faster, heals quicker or holds threats back.

Keep the lights on

Power, Food and Water drain over time. If food or water run out, people get sick. If no one is left below, the undercroft falls silent.

A clear goal

Reach 30 residents with Power, Food and Water all above 50% at the same time. You can keep playing after that.

Fires and rats

Incidents break out in rooms. Assign someone and tap to deal with them. A defense post makes them rarer and weaker.

It remembers you

Your undercroft is saved on this device. Come back later and the game catches up with the time you were away, then lets you carry on.

On a phone, or a tall window

Built to be held upright

Undercroft is a portrait game. On a phone, turn it the long way up. On a computer, use a tall window — a wide one will ask you to rotate.

Install

Put it on your home screen

Undercroft is a web app you can install. Once it’s installed it opens like any other game and keeps working without a signal.

Android & Chrome

Open Undercroft and tap Install in the top-right corner. If you don’t see it, use the browser menu → Install app.

iPhone & iPad

Open it in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.

Computer

In Chrome or Edge, click Install in the top-right, or the install icon in the address bar. Use a tall window so the game can sit upright.

Your undercroft stays with you. The save, and your sound settings, are kept in your browser on this device. Nothing is uploaded, and there’s no account to make.
