Neverlooted Dungeon is inspired by RPGs that were a little before my time, but I was picking up heavy Skyrim vibes playing the absolutely stellar Steam Next Fest demo for this wickedly clever dungeon crawler.
Developer Wild Mage Games explicitly lists Ultima Underworld, Arx Fatalis, and Thief as Neverlooted Dungeon's inspirations, and the demo I played definitely seems like a mish-mash of elements from those genre classics. You start out in a dimly lit dungeon next to a sleeping bag and a fire. The only pathway is too dark to explore without a torch, and I'll admit I spent an embarrassing amount of time (and lives) trying to light a nearby wooden log instead of just, you know, taking the torch that was already lit and mounted on the wall. That was the first of many tests I failed repeatedly before realizing the solution was either, A) right in front of my face, or B) not even in the same orbit as my thought process.
