Our take on Onyx

Visible encounters and 51 secret rooms define the exploration structure, pairing a witch’s pursuit with enemies that can be seen and optional discoveries tucked throughout the adventure.

What is Onyx?

The story centers on Rowan, an isolated witch with an irritable nature, who tracks down the thieves who took a ring her late mother gave her.

The object may possess a meaning beyond personal sentiment. Gameplay features side-scrolling combat with monsters, three difficulty settings, and encounters that stay visible while exploring. Names can be assigned to characters, and mouse input with a related menu bar is optional. The world contains 51 hidden rooms and recurring comedic moments. The vendor estimates the adventure at 30–40 hours.
