About the game
BORE is a 1–4 player co-op survival-horror extraction game. Your crew serves THE MULE, a colossal drilling machine boring down through a stratified, whispering earth: the Fill, the Old Sea, the Ossuary, and, if the tribute demands it, the Hush. 4 unique procedurally generated underground biomes. The Bureau calls what you owe it the tribute. The Bureau is politely inflexible about it.
Someone watches the survey plot. Someone rides the throttle and the coolant. Someone works the winch, the klaxon, the dig door. The instruments are physical, the cabin is loud, and the deeper you drill, the richer and louder the specimens.
Set the hold, take a lantern, open the door. Out there: mineral nodes, loose relics, and twenty kinds of things that hear you mining. You are not armed. Your tools are light, noise, and nerve. Flares, sonar, stun-caps, a boarding spade. Light is your weapon; noise is your debt.
The longer you linger, the hotter the dig gets. Haul what you can carry, slam the door on what follows, and make the only decision that matters: winch out and sell or descend deeper, where everything is worth more and everything is worse.
Sell your haul topside, spend it at the Stores which has 31 shelf rows of dubious equipment. Install the odd implant, and if a coworker doesn't make it, carry them home and feed them to the deposit pit. Nothing is wasted.
Online co-op for 1–4 with proximity voice. Walkie-talkies and the cabin PA carry your voice further; some things hunt by it
A real drilling minigame: bands, bit temperature, throttle, coolant, cracked bits, breakthrough pushes
Procedurally assembled caves every dive, a daily dig seed, and depth leaderboards
20 creatures, each with one gimmick and one counter
46 specimen types, assay discovery, and a tribute that grows with the Bureau's appetite
Death is content: spectate your friends, recover the body, settle the bill
A full physics layer: ragdolls, throwable everything, one squeaking idol
Captions, colorblind-safe plot markers, remappable keys, a phobia toggle
