About
Caput Mortum is a short first-person horror experience inspired by retro 3D dungeon crawlers and survival horror games. Delve into a tower of forgotten nightmares, where every step could be your last. Overcome horrors from beyond death and unlock the secrets of forbidden knowledge.
Close the lights, put on headphones, and immerse yourself in the game's macabre world. Behind every door lurks a new terror, and in every corner a key to some eldritch secret. Pay close attention to your surroundings, overcome unique puzzles, and piece together the events that took place within the tower. How deep are you willing to go, and what terrible truths will you uncover?
You must stay vigilant, as varied monsters roam the abandoned halls of the tower and won't hesitate to attack. Stealth past them, fight back, or perhaps... something else? Just be mindful of your health. There are only so many healing items in the game. This is old school, remember?
Play with a control scheme reminiscent of old-school dungeon crawlers that makes you feel more vulnerable, and control your right hand separately to interact with objects and attack creatures. Several control options are available!
Controller (Default): The recommended way of playing Caput Mortum. The controls make you feel vulnerable while remaining fair.
Controller (King's Field): For nostalgic players! You can control the camera and move your character like in the King's Field games.
Controller (Modern): For players who want to use a controller with a more familiar control scheme.
Keyboard Only: If you don't own a controller but still want the feeling of vulnerability, this is the option for you! Control the camera and your hand with the arrow keys.
Keyboard & Mouse: This is for players wanting a more familiar experience. Control the camera and your hand with the mouse.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, Nintendo publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

Great first person adventure game, feels like playing a miniature game of Myst, but with some simple survival horror elements.
Если бы на нашу планету прилетели инопланетяне и сказали бы мне: "Покажи нам любую короткую инди хоррор игру", я бы не раздумывая показал бы Caput Mortum. Игра - идеальный пример того, каким должен быть хоррор в малой форме: атмосферным, неудобным и запоминающимся надолго
Jeu vraiment sympa, court, à l'ambiance décalé à la limite du grotesque dans le bon sens du terme. Les énigmes ne sont pas tarabiscotés et le jeu se finit tranquillement. Le système de prise d'objet et d'action avec la main n'est pas dérangeant mais il faut bien 10 minutes pour le prendre en main. C'est pas le jeu de l'année mais ça reste une bonne découverte :)

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

If your looking for something like Amnesia but is able to stand on its own two legs. Go with Caput Mortum. Reading that I only played this game for about two hours is strange. As it felt far longer to play, which in this case is a good thing! While the game says you should play on controller. Mouse and keyboard is just fine. The game can be a bit frustrating puzzle wise, but never in a way that feels like its insulting the player. It knows you can figure it out. Experiment with puzzles. Try what you might think won't work.
esse jogo e maravilhoso na moral
Amnesia's Field
Short and sweet, you can get really good at the controls but there's still some general clunkiness, which I don't mind, but I can imagine some people getting frustrated. The puzzles were genuinely interesting and games with weird mechanics like these are the reason I play indies. Gave me a really good spook too. I highly recommend if you're a fan of unconventional games and horror.
an excellent short horror experience. neat mechanics, and great art direction and atmosphere
Антоха меня в школе напугал, уе6ан долговязый
Short, fun, spooky, great environment. Puzzles are just enough to keep you moving along.
