Few Shall Return

Few Shall Return is a multiplayer dungeon extraction game with very short rounds, made by a small indie team.

Bite-sized experience for busy people

Each run lasts 7 minutes and a half, delivering a full extraction experience in a short session. No grinding, no waiting, just action, strategy, and high-stakes decisions. There can be up to 8 players in a private or public game.

Extraction & "coopetition"

Only a few will make it out: for every player who dies, one other player can escape. You have to work together to fight enemies and solve puzzles, but when the exit opens, it’s every player for themselves. Bring whatever equipment you want to increase you chances but if you die, you lose everything.

Classes & Play Styles

Play as either Molokhia, a crusader chef who can heal or poison the others with pie. He is built like a tank, has a lot of inventory space, but he's quite slow...

Or, Sprout, a ranged gambler who can gamble Unrefined Corium to spawn weapons or, on a bad roll, an enemy.

Sprout is quick and nimble but they cannot carry too much.

More characters coming soon!

Loot & Tradeoffs

Inventory space is extremely limited! Choose what to bring in and what to take out. Weapons, keys, or equipment —you can’t carry everything. Make every item count because you only keep what you bring out.

And more!
