Our take on Subterraneus

The feature list emphasizes a large number of clickable points, but that count alone does not explain how varied the puzzles or interactions are. The stated route is also singular: Clodomir’s purpose is to get back to the surface.

What is Subterraneus?

Subterraneus is a 2D point-and-click adventure about Clodomir, who falls through a waste collection opening and wakes on a vast garbage heap in a cave far below the surface.

The goal is to find a way back up. Play uses the mouse, with exploration and logic-based interactions across 20 pictures containing more than 500 interactive points. The game includes 12 non-player characters and a multi-layered hint system. Difficulty can be customized. Its setting begins on an overpopulated planet where authorities have created a recycling system for reusing resources. The adventure also includes obscure references and humor that the vendor says is not included.
