Karen Simulator: Wrath of the HOA

Life Sim / Psychological RPG · PC · Release TBA

Karen Simulator key art: a suburban street at dusk with a single lit window, mirrored into a dream space below the horizon.

Short description

What happens when a cozy suburban life sim gets possessed by a psychological RPG. Move into Fernhollow Commons, explore surreal mental dungeons, and save the neighborhood.

Long description

Karen Simulator: Wrath of the HOA is what happens when a cozy suburban life sim gets possessed by a psychological RPG. Move into Fernhollow Commons, make your house your own, befriend your neighbors, and uncover the horrifyingly weird shit hiding underneath their perfectly manicured lawns. Then fight it. Literally.

Every Karen has a reason she became a Karen. Beneath the HOA meetings, passive-aggressive notes, weaponized politeness, and suburban insanity are people carrying trauma, resentment, loneliness, and deeply fucked-up coping mechanisms. Explore surreal dungeons born from those problems, confront the monsters they've created, and decide whether you want to destroy them, understand them, or somehow get everyone to stop being assholes to each other.

Features

  • Suburban life sim meets mental rot. Settle into Fernhollow Commons, cultivate your home, visit local shops, and uncover the secrets beneath the cul-de-sac.
  • Turn-based combat & weaponized grievances. Battles fought with Hysteria Points, Manipulation Points, and The Grievance clipboard weapon.
  • Mental dungeons made physical. Explore fractured psychological spaces: the HOA Headquarters, Suburban Nightmare, and Appliance Core.
  • The Commune: healing over punishment. Healing can't be forced — invite former antagonists into a reclaimed cooperative sanctuary.

Spellunker

Word roguelike · Windows, Mac & Linux (planned) · Release TBA

Spellunker key art: a hexagonal cavern half excavated through fog, with the word DESCEND spelled across the dug-out centre.

Short description

A score-attack word roguelike set in the world of Lexomancy. Spell into the fog, forge Axioms from the words you played, break the Ward, and descend.

Long description

Spellunker is a word roguelike about a Lexomancer, a spellcaster whose only tool is language, working their way down through a fog-shrouded cavern one word at a time. Every chamber is a hex board sealed by a Ward: a score to reach before the last placement lands. Each word laid across the stone peels the fog back around it, uncovering multiplier veins, mana springs, and holes that need a longer word than you meant to spell. The preview is always exact; what is still under the fog is the gamble.

Break the Ward and the Forge takes the words you actually played, reads what they mean as a phrase, and hands back an Axiom: a standing rule that bends the rest of the run toward the way you like to spell. Enchant a letter and the mark spreads to every tile of it. Every Depth ends at a Guardian that rewrites the room, and every Depth wants a bigger number than the last. A run fits in an evening.

Features

  • The dictionary is the deck. No card pool to learn; the game reads what words mean, not just which letters they spend.
  • Fog is the loot. Every placement reveals more of the room. Previews are exact; the unrevealed board is the risk.
  • Axioms forged from what you said. Run-defining rules built from the player's own words: Sesquipedalian, Terse Wit, Crescendo, Silence of E.
  • Enchant the alphabet. Gilt, Ember Char, Resonant Filigree and Inkwell marks, in three tiers, applied to a letter for the rest of the run.
  • Guardians rewrite the room. Vowel tax, heavy fog, an echoing dark that punishes repetition.
  • Mouse, controller and touch. Built for the desk and the handheld alike.
