Chimera

Welcome to a 2D dungeon crawler monster-fighting gacha game where you, a mad scientist, command a team of hand-crafted chimeras to search a dangerous dungeon filled with monsters. You are seeking nothing other than the Undying Heart, a mythical item said to be able to revive the dead, in order to undo your greatest mistake and bring your beloved daughter, Nina, back to life. You may not be able to fight directly, being a feeble scientist and all, but you can make your chimeras fight, direct them to explore the dungeon, and order them to use their special abilities. But be careful when giving orders to your chimeras—once they’re dead, they’re dead forever. And while you might not care at all about their lives, that’s valuable resources down the drain. If you run out of chimeras to command entirely, then all your hope of saving your daughter will go down the drain. As you embark on this endeavor, uncover secrets about the world around you, and about yourself. How did Nina die? What IS the Undying Heart? And…where are you getting the parts to make your chimeras? 

Good luck, scientist! You’ll need it.

Use the arrow keys to move around in the dungeon. The space key draws all your monsters to you, and the number key drags that specific chimera to you. You need to find the exit, a book, and bring a chimera with you.
